Ableton Live Tutorial: Creating a Track with pointblank’s Free Plugins Part 2

Whether you’re a PB veteran or new to all the courses, downloads and exclusive tutorials we offer, our free plugins – designed to use with Max for Live – are extremely useful tools for creating and mangling music. We’ve given away 13 plugins so far, with more on the way, but we decided to create a new series of videos, not only showing you how they work, but putting them to use in making a track from scratch.

This video forms part of our ongoing Ableton Month in August – a month where we’re bringing you heaps of Ableton-focused content, giveaways and exclusive competitions each day. This includes a chance to win the almighty prize of Ableton Push and Ableton Live Suite, all you have to do is register using the form below before August 31st to be in with a chance of winning. Also for this month only we also have some huge discounts on both Ableton Live and Push when you enrol with us on selected Diploma courses in London (which can all be taken on Ableton), giving you some top notch savings on gear.
