This is a fantastic course. The information is presented clearly and concisely. I really liked the way the "oops" moments were kept intact, because the on-fly-corrections help to reinforce the material. The instructor is clearly knowledgeable and his pacing is just right.

Great into to Push 2. I am amazed at how much of Ableton Live is right at my fingertips. I now have a greater understanding, not only of Push 2 but of Live itself. The integration with Simpler opens up a whole world of creativity. An excellent introduction to an amazing device.

This is course is pretty much perfect and exactly what I've been looking for. It's a comprehensive tutorial of the Rytm MKII from the ground up, perfect for newcomers to Elektron like me. Worth every dollar However there's one problem totally unrelated to the quality of the tutorial itself and I hope the people in charge read this. Something is up with the way this tutorial has been labeled and marketed because I had a hell of a time finding it. Over the past couple months I've googled "Rytm Mkii tutorial" and several different iterations of that but never once came across this tutorial. I luckily stumbled across it deep in a forum. Hopefully that is addressed because I'm positive there are more people looking for a tutorial like this since there's a complete dearth of them online right now. Anyways, thanks to Thavius for making an incredible tutorial.
