Reference Track to MIDI Arrangement Sketch
This course teaches music producers a systematic workflow for deconstructing any reference track into a fully labeled MIDI arrangement sketch in Ableton Live 12. By the end, students will be able to analyze professional tracks, extract their musical DNA, and rebuild the structure with their own sounds—a skill that accelerates learning, improves arrangement instincts, and provides a legitimate creative starting point for original productions.
