    Default Looking for Music Production Mentor

    Hey guys I'm looking for a mentor that can help me with production and keeping myself on track so that I stick with it. I am very new to production but not to DJing. I've never touched a DAW until last week, but I'm currently using Ableton. I would appreciate if someone would help me kick start my production career.

    Thank you,
    Peacemael

    Youtube will be your only friend until someone sees some sort of potential.

    At this point you know absolutely nothing and will most likely give up before you make an actual listenable song.

    Just youtube ableton tutuorials.

    This.

    If you have question regarding Ableton, you can post them here, but don't post every single time you can't figure something out.

    Check out some of DJVespers videos on YouTube for Ableton as well, free and very good.

    Thank you guys for all your help, I just got my first midi controller a couple of days ago. I'm still learning plenty of things but I'm much further than where I was when I originally posted.
