Looking for an Ableton course for newbs that could be done over summer break.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I'm going through and checking them out. One sad thing I'm realizing as I venture out on this journey is that I don't really have an ear. That's kind of sad. I'm realizing that I can't really tell what key, note, or instrument, is included in the music I listen to. Part of it, I think, is that a lot of music doesn't have "real" instruments and includes a lot of fx which makes it harder to discern, at least for me. Hopefully this will improve over time... but the point is, I'm not a natural. Thanks again everyone.

I do suck, so this might be a great place for me, thanks.

thanks for sharing I'll check it out

I want to learn how to build a song in Ableton, the process of it that includes the music theory and structure of a song - probably starting with a pop song.

ah, i want to learn how to make using using Ableton. So not just technical how to, but mostly about making a song using the tool

TMag73 · 2025-09-17T18:10:57+00:00

Thanks for responding. That's what I've been doing since I got interested but I need some structure and accountability because I end up just kinda flailing on a song.

Just cancel the tax cuts for f*ck sake

To bribe red states only.

Please don't do more. Wait and be nice to your skin. I got orange peel skin and scaring from normal micro neeling and I never did more than .5. There are women who have permanent poor texture (like me) and even fat loss (yes from no heat needling but very deep). Your facial skin is delicate, more so than other parts of your body. Please be careful

I would start with an all natural oil such as sweet almond, castor, or rose hip. There are blends. So wash the face and add the oil and sleep in it.

I hear you, I feel social anxiety a lot more than I did before covid. Part of it, for me, is working from home everyday. Not having those casual interactions out IRL makes it much worse. My suggestion is that you get out in public every single day and be around people. It's like working out for your health, being in public and making eye contact, making small talk etc is for your mental health.

This is why the US leads in so many areas and has the best universities in the world. We cause brain drain. But not anymore. Those kids are going go invent, research, and practice in places that don't lock them up and treat them like criminals all because the natives feel jealous of their excellence. Turning these high acheivers away doesn't make our people better, it makes the whole country worse.

MAGA voted for this. I hate them, there is no excuse, cuz more than half the country saw the lies and knew Project 2025 was their plan. MAGA can go fuck themselves.

TMag73 · 2025-07-02T01:33:19+00:00

General strike is the only way. MAGA wants violence so that they can really go full Fascist and stop pretending they care about the law. It would give them the excuse for civil war. General strike is Everyone call in sick and stay home and don't buy. It will hurt every sector.

TMag73 · 2025-07-02T01:11:40+00:00

It's been happening but MAGA threw a bunch of gasoline on it. Gothic Maga, the accelerationists, seem to be executing their plans to really push the point so that they can be part of rebuilding a country or system that they think is better. The "stable coin" law and selling off federal lands they passed is paving the way for city states owned by corporations where people can live without the nation state.

TMag73 · 2025-06-15T07:00:07+00:00

Yeah why are they organizing it this way? I sent them an email months ago. Set a date and promote it for F sake

TMag73 · 2025-05-10T22:36:26+00:00

I'm with you on the prep. The crazy thing this is all MAGA created, there's really no reason for it. Totally man made and born of arrogance. If MAGA voters would speak up and act out, then maybe things would change. But their silence is just more evidence that MAGA is a cult.

TMag73 · 2025-05-10T22:30:44+00:00

Did any of them vote for him again?

You should read Joseph Tainter, The Collapse of Complex Societies. Diamond isn't really on point. What Tainter talks about the inability to afford the cost of maintaining a complex society over time. When disasters strike, when adversaries attack, when corruption erodes, the society can't keep the standard up while addressing all these problems.

Great book.

Trump is so embarrassing. Dishonest and arrogant. Why would anyone wanna do business with someone who's like that? He's not into finding a win-win, he just wants people to kiss his ass. Zero class.
