Creo que es un gran curso para principiantes y para aquellos/as que incluso quieren afinar en la mezcla final. La creatividad nos la ofrece este profesor PRO, con las diferentes lecciones que va desarrollando a lo largo del curso. Se le nota contenido ( así lo siento) por la cantidad de horas que se le aprecia en el manejo del Ableton. Me voy muy satisfecho y no me puedo imaginar estar con él un par de horas en su estudio, tiene que ser muy enriquecedor. Por último, mi valoración es muy positiva

Para ser un curso tan básico es DEMASIADO LENTO, se pudo hacer en la mitad del tiempo y mejor organizado, además de que NO ESTÁ HECHO PARA APRENDER PUSH, sólo usa el push en un par de videos y es todo, me decepcionó mucho. NO LO RECOMIENDO, MIL VECES MEJOR APRENDER POR YOUTUBE

I would have create a section on the course just to explain and show the professional use of the Ableton Push 2. But overall the course has been great, I learn a lot, especially on workflow and efficiency on production, I will then definitely raccomend Pedro as a teacher
