Sound Design with Ableton Analog

A sound design recipe book on creating sounds in Ableton Live’s Analog synthesizer. Foreword by Dennis DeSantis (Author of Making Music: 74 creative strategies for electronic music producers). Each of the nine chapters in this book will show you how to create contemporary sounds for the modern electronic music producer. Using screenshots from Analog and audio examples, you will learn step by step how to create nine sounds from scratch.
