Ableton Live is a popular digital audio workstation (DAW) known for its loop-based workflow and powerful live performance capabilities.

Orchestration involves arranging and combining different instruments or sounds to create a musical composition.

MIDI controllers, such as keyboards, pads, and knobs, enable musicians to control various aspects of their music in real-time through physical interactions.

Mastering involves optimizing the overall sound quality of a recorded track, including adjusting levels, dynamics, and frequency response.

Synthesizers are electronic instruments that generate sounds using various synthesis techniques, allowing musicians to create a wide range of electronic sounds.

Sequencing involves creating a sequence of musical notes or chords, often using a MIDI keyboard or sequencer software.

Samplers allow musicians to record and manipulate audio samples, enabling them to create unique sounds and textures.

Effects processing involves adding effects such as reverb, delay, distortion, and EQ to a recorded track to enhance its sound.

Drum machines are electronic instruments specifically designed for creating and manipulating drum patterns.

Digitization is the process of converting an analog audio signal into a digital format, represented as a series of binary numbers.

Loopers allow musicians to record and manipulate audio loops, enabling them to create rhythmic and melodic patterns.

Balancing involves adjusting the volume levels of different tracks in a mix to achieve a cohesive and well-balanced sound.

Sequencers allow musicians to create and manipulate MIDI sequences, which contain information about the notes, timing, and velocity of a musical performance.

Compression is a technique used to reduce the dynamic range of a recorded track, making the loud parts quieter and the quiet parts louder.

Virtual instruments are software instruments that emulate the sound and playing characteristics of real instruments.
