Ableton Forum

If this has been discussed in another thread - feel free to kick my ass over there and I'll read it:

I was thinking about buying a book on Live 6 & was wondering if anyone had suggestions or recommendations since there are quite a few out there. I'd definitely like something that is aimed at beginner/intermediate audiences with some tutorials and examples and stuff.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

i dont know if they have one out yet for live 6 but there is a book called live 5/6 power and its like a big tutorial text book that tells you most everything about what that particular version of live has

if you can go through all the tips in the tips n tricks sticky you'll know more about Live than most people.

the stuff in that thread is great, no doubt... i was wanting something that was maybe a bit more linear - something that starts with the very basics and then gets more advanced. plus i'd like to have the book open in front of me while i was working...

i might check around amazon and read some reviews - the book store at the mall here didn't have shit as far as i could tell...

those 'power' series of books are generally good imo - i think there is one for live 6 coming out pretty soon.

edit: actually its out now

I own and read Live 6 Power! already. You can get it here: http://www.amazon.com/Ableton-Live-Powe ... 817&sr=8-1
I highly recommend this book, very well written, I've bought the Thompson books for Pro Tools and Reason as well, I'm a reader. They're great.

I own and read Live 6 Power from John von Seggern to.
Excellent book.

There is just one thing: On page 11 there is a download package mentioned. "To get you going as quick as possible"

But this download package does not exist.

Good news!
Thank you Teen Idol

Yes... But does this book have anything about Mastering in it????.... I'm thinkin of buying it anyways, but I'm just curious if I can start here, or should I be looking somewhere else to start my education on mastering?

Peace

anyone with the book who can answer TeachONEs question above?

I would also like to know if there's something in it about mastering


and when I looked for the book here in Sweden.. it says the author is SIMON CANN.
Is this the same book?
it has the same ISBN numbers.

ISBN10: 1598633252
ISBN13: 9781598633252

Hi,

here is a book.

http://www.amazon.com/Ableton-Live-6-Ti ... 1906005028

But honestly, Ableton Manual explains every thing better than any book.
But ASK video Tutorial makes you aware of everything about Ableton.

Best of luck.

I got another book just today... by John von Seggern... so perhaps I will finally fully understand things..

The ASKvideo video was not enough for me...

Anybody who wants to buy it from me?
just PM me
