I've learned so much more about what I thought I already knew. The proper setup and use of the User button for additional mapping takes Push to another level. I must get this whole course and see what other things I am missing of my Push knowledge. Great lessons.

(beginner here) I've always hated that back to arrangement button just because I was quite unfamiliar with it, and thinking Push was all about Session view (even though Live has two views as options). The course made me a lot more confident about that button.

learned a lot already. I'm a push-noob and thought I might give Andri's free course a try. It already helped me a lot. At he conclusion of this course there's a little surprise that might just give you that little push (pun intended) towards following the other courses.

Senior Instructor Andri Søren Haflidason

Andri has taught thousands of students, from complete beginners to full-time professionals. He became a Product Specialist for Ableton in 2014, delivering workshops at all levels, has taught at schools across Europe including SAE Institute and ESRA. His focus is on Ableton Live and Ableton Push, with a particular emphasis on finding creative workflows, improvisational performance, and getting into 'the flow. He believes firmly in doing more with less, and "finding your instrument". Life is short, and limitations and focus bring incredible creativity and results. Describing and mapping out the "landscapes of possibility" to students is key, helping them find their path and to define their own personal quest.

This course was packed with a lot of small gems that have yielded big improvements in my workflow with Push 2 in arrangement view. The content was clearly explained and the videos were excellent quality! Each lesson was delivered in easily digestible language and demonstrations.
