Ableton has announced the full schedule for their Oct 29th Loop Create – a free international event that offers a full day of sessions for music makers.

You don’t need to be an Ableton Live user to participate – the event focuses on topics that apply to all musicians – but you do need to register.

This year’s event is focusing on collaboration, and promises to explore new options that are now available.

To kick off the day’s theme of collective creation, Hildur Guðnadóttir and Sam Slater will talk through their approach to collaboration, in a keynote interview moderated by Craig Schuftan. Then, you’ll get a chance to join fellow attendees in the Loop Cafe, a virtual hangout space for chatting and sharing ideas.

Next, you can join a workshop with Maya Shenfeld, where you can exchange text scores and try out new processes for making music with the help of Dennis DeSantis. Once that’s wrapped up, Gafacci and Juba will open the virtual floor for questions and comments about working with others in the studio.

After another social breather in the Loop Cafe, it’s time for the music-making challenge with Aquarian and Mustelide – just bring your wildest ideas to help them move forward with their unfinished tracks in a session moderated by Afriqua.

Loop Create starts at 4pm (Berlin/UTC+2) and runs until 10:30pm on October 29, 2022. See the Ableton site for details.
