New to DAW/Abelton

Post by jh1634 » Thu Oct 21, 2021 6:58 pm

So, I'm getting back into making music and I feel like you need a Ph.D. to set up the program and load the plug-ins. In the past, I've used garage band and soundtrap which are very user-friendly but have their limits.

Would anyone be available to walk me through the process? Willing to Venmo for an hour session.

Here are the issues I'm having:

- Can't hear or record from my midi keyboard Arturia Keylab49, but I can hear the test sound
- How to load and use Analog Lab 4/5 in Arturia

Thanks!

For some reason, I was at home with Ableton the first day. I tried Cubase first, and I still get cramps in my stomach when thinking about that... :?

Go to link/midi/tempo-tab in Preferences. Choose your (connected) midi-device in one of the midi-in drop-down menues.

I hope you get good answers to your other questions :)
