This book is accompanied by an exclusive interactive online course including video lessons, walk-through tutorials, and download-able custom device presets of every exercise.

Ableton Certified Trainer James Patrick teaches you how to create your own original sounds from scratch using Ableton Live. Begin by learning the fundamental concepts of synthesis and sound design, and apply them to the instruments built in to the software. Learn the fundamental principles of sound, music, and the elements of sound synthesis such as oscillators, filters, envelopes, LFOs, advanced modulation, sequencing, FM synthesis, and more.

Part 1 begins with explaining the nature of sound and analog subtractive synthesis as applied through the Ableton Analog, Then those concepts are applied through FM synthesis from within the Ableton Operator. Every chapter concludes with a set of practical workflows where you apply the concepts explained to these native Ableton tools. Follow along and add your own modifications to yield powerful new sounds and templates that are time-tested and standard to the sound design industry.

Part 2 (coming soon) covers effects processing, sampling, and advanced digital synthesis techniques include physical modeling, granular synthesis, and wavetable synthesis. As in part 1, every chapter concludes with a set of practical workflows where you apply the concepts explained to the tools covered in the chapter. Those tools include VST and Max for Live instruments such as Granulator II, Vital, Serum, and more.

Reviews from experts in the field:

Gregory Taylor – Cycling ‘74, Ableton
“In a world where books on sound design tie themselves exclusively to specific tools or opt for a historical approach which strands the excited beginner in the present with more of an idea of where “they’ve been” than “where I want to go,” Sound Design for Electronic Music shines in its focus on a well-marked roadmap whose stops are opportunities for play and personal discovery using a collection of commonly available tools. It’s a book written for a time when the landscape is changing and you learn by going where to go. It’s a fool’s errand to imagine covering everything in one place in the current sound design landscape. Instead, Sound Design for Electronic Music gives you a map, a compass, and a list of spectacular roadside attractions and other tours that will aid you at learning how to teach yourself how to learn.”

Ivo Ivanov – Glitchmachines
“JP has done a phenomenal job of covering a deeply complex subject in a creative, thoughtful and inspired way that leaves practically no stone unturned. Beyond being a comprehensive and thorough guide on the subject, this book will no doubt be a truly joyful and enriching experience for anyone interested in diving into the weird and wonderful world of sound design!”

Kevin Pooler – LP24 Audio
“James Patrick dives into essential and foundational principles of sound, synthesis, and sonic exploration- all within a modern and relevant context. This makes for a fun and practical read as one gains access to an arsenal of tools and techniques for immediate use within one’s own music productions and creative sound projects.”

Stefon “Bionik” Taylor – Lizzo, Sophia Eris, Maybelline
“This isn’t just a technical manual, it’s the ultimate handbook for sound exploration. JP covers everything from theory, to tools, to techniques in this comprehensive guide to the creation of sound. A must have for sound designers, producers, and musicians alike.”
