Programme Synopsis Digital Music Production with Ableton Live by Ministry of DJs - Pro DJ School This comprehensive programme is designed to equip aspiring producers and musicians with the foundational and advanced skills needed to create, arrange, and produce music using Ableton Live — one of the industry’s leading digital audio workstations. Through hands-on, project-based learning, students will explore essential music production techniques including beat-making, synthesis, sampling, audio recording, mixing, and sound design. The course begins with an introduction to the Ableton Live interface and core functionalities, progressively moving into more complex production workflows, creative composition strategies, and live performance capabilities. Participants will gain a deep understanding of how to structure a track, manipulate audio and MIDI, and utilize effects to achieve professional-sounding results. Ministry of DJs can provide Ableton Live for FREE (worth $99 USD each) on each computer in the lab, as we hold an unlimited license for the software.
