If you're like me, finishing music is hard.

Every time I make music, I hit a point where self-doubt creeps in and I wonder if it's even worth finishing what I am doing.

Over the years, I've developed a few ideas that have helped me get to the finish line more often. I want to share some of those with you!

One thing that helps me move forward is making commitments in my sounds. Ableton Live doesn't have a Bounce in Place feature that allows you to print MIDI Instruments and Audio Effects to Audio. But there is a way to commit your sounds to audio. In this 2-Minute Ableton Live Tip I show you how I do it.

Decide Recklessly!
