How to finish Tracks in Ableton Live // Workflow to get to the Arrangement ! Part 1

Arrangement view scares people coming from session view, but you can work it the same way, with loops and blocks. In this video I show my workflow to turn a session view jam into a finished arrangement in Ableton Live. I start with a short loop, cut it into clean bars so I can duplicate it fast, then paint blocks across the timeline for intro, drops and breaks, using fades and symmetry to make transitions feel natural. I also show how I build two FX channels for risers and transitions between sections. Part 2 continues in a separate video.
