Beginner! Need help to export my first creation ...

Post by Maigra » Sat Sep 08, 2018 4:17 pm

Hi everyone! I am new to Ableton. I love creating music, but am not good at computers ... But I have successfully created a set of multiple midi clips and I would like to save it all as a song, as a single file, you know, like MP4 or similar so I can open i in a music player and not only on Ableton...

Is there an easy way to do this?? Thank you :) :) //Maigra

Hello. There is a lot to learn. Recommend you watch some YouTube ideas, I’m sure there are plenty. But basically learn how to copy clips from scene view over to arrangement view. Then use the export option. Good Luck.

Thanks! Soo, it's really overwhelming... Is there any viedo specifically explaining the export thing?

Cool! Where do I find "arrange" and how do I drag them? Is is the same as "export midi clip"?

First learn the basics of Ableton thru YT vids..... You need to have understanding of session- and arrangement view!

Also Live comes with an excellent manual - read it!
