Ableton, Mixing & Mastering
With a career that started in the early days of house and techno at New York’s notorious Limelight, Abe Duque has been at the head of the acid-house and underground-techno table since his earliest releases way back in 1992. Between touring the world’s underground techno scenes, releasing on labels such as International Deejay Gigolo, Tension, Abuse Industries, and Rapture, and remixing tracks for household names such as Chemical Brothers and Pet Shop Boys, Abe later turned his attention to education, where he is now considered one of the most respected educators in New York City.
We are excited to bring you the next in-person NYC Ableton User Group meetup! As always, the meetup is open to producers, songwriters, DJs, and musicians of all types and proficiency levels looking to exchange ideas, network, meet like-minded producers, and learn new tips and tricks from our presenters and fellow participants.
343 Labs will also be opening its doors for an Open House, for anyone that would like to tour the facilities, meet some of the 343 Team, and learn about the 343 music production courses.

Vocal Pre-Production, with Stella Key
In this presentation Stella will go through the first steps of vocal production, starting with recording and editing the vocals before using any plug-ins. In order to achieve the smooth sounding almost “perfect” pop/dance vocals we hear nowadays, there are a few steps that we need to take before even using any plug-ins to mix the vocals. These include a good recording and editing and preparing the vocals.
