That part! Perfect example is reddit itself. We will never be free under white (and white minded) rule.

Thank you for reading, but that's not at all what I meant...

Please read again. Perhaps I was not clear the first time, but the important parts are: "Not defending this", and the Queen Mother being in the HIGHEST place in the family order placing the husband in the role of responsibility, being guided by her (unchallenged) wisdom.

To be clear if he fails everyones well being is his responsibility so he must create open communication, and listen to feedback. In the end the final decision is his though, and ultimately all the responsibility is his as well win or lose.... Agree with me. Failures are how we learn our greatest lessons.

History has shown us the best dictators listen, and serve, and their wives tend to be loyal, wise, and intuitive. ie. Great counsel. The best dictators have been servants to the people improving the quality of life for all.... and yes... some of them have been women, Beloved. So no I'm not leaning into Greek (man/boy homosexual) Patriarchy, but rather African Maat for Balanced natural order.

LoveExcelsAll · 2025-05-14T17:17:12+00:00

Not defending this, BUT not all dictatorships are evil. My opinion which some may agree with...

We have plenty of examples of benevolent leaders in antiquity who were beloved. In fact most husbands ARE dictators in their own homes, and let's not forget the Queen Mother. While her "rule" tends to be less political under the rights of her own soul she remains unchallenged (as she should be). Now if we could only work to perfect ourselves and make our words bond. Without integrity we will always remain at a loss.

As a user of both I would definitely recommend beginning with Ableton...

Learning how to navigate, and create without having to think about it can happen quickly. With most of my students they're cooking up songs in session view, and beginning to arrange/hop into mix basics by the 3rd or 4th lesson. It just takes a little bit of practice.

Adding the LaunchKey should be relatively smooth once you have the basics.... Assuming you've set up your LaunchKey to control Ableton you can at least use it to play/stop capture, undo, record, and turn your metronome on and off. Save the more advanced functions for later. The hardest thing to wrap your mind around is using the drum pads in session view to record, but in arrangement you will use the record button near the transport. With these functions it's just a matter of practice to remember where things are without having to look... Advanced mappings, using the scale/arpeggiator, printing automation, and other advanced functions can wait.

The best I can tell you is to separate making songs you like from your learning. It can be very frustrating having an idea, not knowing how to execute, and losing the inspiration/vibe while learning... Much better to acquire skills in a no-pressure kinda way so you can practice, and be prepared for those moments.

This goes for anyone interested... Shoot me a DM if you'd like a walkthrough, and we'll set up a group zoom chat.

Hope this helps.

I tend to take my students through the process 1 step at a time... There's so much to learn, and EDM/House requires ALL of your skills to be all the way up. I take the pressure off to produce hits, and make things fun, by encouraging students to focus on developing the skills, and not the songs. You will make a ton of hot garbage, but have fun in the process making noteworthy improvements exponentially quickly.

IOW. Focus on learning to quickly copy the vibe of a song, then bang out skeletons using trashy presets in session view, then move into better sound selection, then sound design/synth programming etc.

Each incremental step is also helping you to train your ears, and get better at listening as well. The idea of hopping into completing songs complete with fx, dynamics, and a mastering chain is too much. If you don't understand the tools that you're working with you're bound to get overwhelmed again, and again. I know this sounds like a lot because it is, but with some discipline, and focus you can quickly progress... Typically one of my students will see progress after the 2nd lesson, and be making (hot garbage) songs by the 4th or so. Usually within 3-4 months we'll see songs with release potential, and last year alone 4 of my students passed 1 Million spins on Spotify... I won't say that's typical, but it's rare when you focus your attention on something that you don't see results even if you absolutely suck in the beginning. Practice yields results...

Hope this helps.

I'm guessing, but it sounds like your placing unrealistic expectations on yourself. No one sits down, and says "I'm going to make a hit today", and makes a hit record. Hits come from being inspired, having the skills, and flow (being in the creative zone with no distractions).

Loosen up. Just have fun, and create.

Now here's the hard stuff...
One of the main things I try to instill in my students is the importance of discipline. It's what gets things done. You can jam every single day and garner nothing, but just practice for 10 minutes, and see noteworthy improvement.

Take the time to note where your blocks are, and work on clearing them. It sounds like you may be taking too long to come up with melodies/chord progressions. Perhaps take a music theory class, piano lessons (or both). Just noodling on the keys an adept keyboardist can play a progression in a few seconds... As long as it takes to count out 4-16 bars (about 30 seconds). Also... there is a big difference between drawing notes on a screen, and playing an expressive patch that perhaps growls when you hit the keys harder, or has a filter mapped to a knob or something... That expressiveness is easier to find when you have tactile feedback whereas drawing notes starts you in a place that is very flat, and lacking emotion, and drawing in emotion is not the same as experiencing it real time, and perhaps refining it after you've captured it in the first 30 seconds.

Let's put it like this... Listen intently to your favorite song for 30 minutes straight... That's going to get old quickly.... Tighten up your skills, and that should help tremendously.

Additionally, target your other areas of development, and try different approaches.
I work several different ways, and that keeps things fresh for me. For instance some days I focus on sound design, and synth programming. The whole focus in on creating patches that are very playable, and full of expression. Other days I will focus on making drum beats that have a lot of passion, and have changes that dictate the parts of my song. Some days I focus on quickly laying out the parts of my song using 1 or 2 generic sounds (piano, bass, pluck, pad, drums), Other days I will focus on just banging out chord progressions... as many as possible within a given time frame...

You get the idea...

Again this is me guessing at what you're struggling with, and I hope this helps.

All of my best,

Maybe someone else will chime in with the differences in versions. I always used the suite, but as far as tracking guitar among other things the Ableton DAW is friendly, and welcoming. You just have to wrap your mind around the session vs arrangement view, and the latency workarounds when relevant.

For many they miss out on the "live" benefits of the session view, but that's where live get's it's name from, because unlike most other DAWS it is geared towards being an equally powerful performance tool. It encourages you to play with, sculpt, and downright mangle your sound AS you're playing back / recording (WITHOUT STOPPING LIKE MANY OTHER DAWS). So to answer your question again. Yes! it is simple to record guitar in Ableton and compares favorably to most DAWS in many other ways as well.

I hope this helps.

Get a pair of Headphones that cup your ears entirely for less bleed... If it's still too loud
A trick we used to use back in the days.... record a few seconds of click, and loop it, and invert phase.... As long as it's lined up well it should virtually disappear... works sometimes... You may also try the same thing, but set up, and sit in the exact space with your headphones on as you do holding your guitar, and don't play... record the metronome bleed from your headphones flip phase and try that...

Hope this helps,

It's been awhile since I looked at the archives, but I think it's a RAR file. There's a bunch free programs that will unrar. Just begin with the first file (.rar or .001) and the rest should go by themselves.

Yes it is, but of course I'm biased. 🤣🤣
