For those of you interested in music production, performance and instrument building techniques in Ableton Live. I am happy to announce that I have been developing this portion of my AMT Ableton certified EMP curriculum which incorporates MPE techniques for the past year, in addition to all the new features of Live 12.

Exploring building instruments with gestural performance in mind truly transforms the controller and how you can harness it as a fully fledged hybrid instrument.
