beginners who are interested in learning music creation using Live as
the medium. Prior musical experience or knowledge of Live or is not
required. Through hands-on exercises students learn Live's various
panes, effects and mixing facilities. By the end of the workshop,
students are familiar enough with Live that they are able to showcase

'beats' and songs.
