Learn from the arrangement. Write into it. Make it your own.
What is a stencil?
Stencils are arrangement breakdowns based off of popular songs, built for Ableton Live. Every instrument in the song is mapped to where it goes along the timeline but they have no sounds or processing so you get to fill them in yourself. Learn from them. Break them. Fill them out with your own sounds.

Full arrangement map
Every element the record needs, mapped across the timeline. Automation notes are written into the clips, so you see the decisions, not just the layout.
Vocal map
Every vocal section marked across the timeline.
Fully organized session
Mapped, color coded and labeled. Open it and start.
Key mapped frequency check
Isolate lows, mids, highs, mono and sides while you work.
Two reference channels
Load two tracks and switch between them without opening a window.
Patterns you can reuse
Learn the patterns the pros use, then take them into the next track.
No sounds. No samples. No presets. Just the structure.

Write your parts into clearly defined sections.

Add your vocal

More tracks finished means more reps. More reps means better records, faster.

Why fifty beats one
Fifty stencils is fifty different starting points for inspiration. You sit down to a new challenge every day, you start making decisions faster, and the days stay fresh.
A new challenge every day
Fifty starting points means you are never opening the same session twice. Pick one and the day already has a shape.
Decisions get faster
The path of decisions is already laid out and straightforward, so you are not spending the session working out what goes where.
Bandwidth for the real decisions
Organized enough that your head stays on the chords, the melody, the drums, the vocals and how they all work together.
The newest arrangements in the catalog.

A remake hands you someone else's sound. A stencil gives you the outline and nothing else. Play in your sounds, move the sections, take it wherever you want.
No. It opens with stock Ableton devices only. Fill it in with whatever you already own.
Yes. Everything you put into it is yours.
