  This book also covers technical issues specific to sample-based music, such as selecting soundware libraries and sample clearance, as well as mixing, processing, and editing techniques. Finally, the book explores specifics of performing live with these tools, using a laptop or portable computer rig. It will be one of the first books to cover Ableton's latest release of Live (version 3) and Apple's brand-new Soundtrack, as well as more established tools like Acid. Learn about Ableton Live from someone who uses it professionally in a variety of applications. Leam about mixing and effects processing from a veteran producer. Leam alternatives to the expensive and often messy process of sampling commercially released records. Sampling is arguably one of the most important developments in popular music creation over the past twenty years, yet there aren't many resources that cover the newest software applications that make this type of production accessible to both pros and beginners. This book covers these concepts in an easy to understand manner.
