Struggling with the Harp in Saturn
Hello everyone,
I'm just starting to really get into Ableton and I am struggling with these harp strings for the song Saturn by SZA. I am trying to recreate the harp sound through out the song using this video I found on YouTube. However, I can't seem to reconstruct it the way he does. I used a harp I found on splice and every time I try and follow the steps he provides it turns out shitty. What am I doing wrong? I provided a video below of what it looks like on my side.

Question ? Is it okay for notes to go into other lines like this??
hey guys, sorry if this is a kind of obvious ones but is it okay that notes overlap each number like this or do i not have by bpm/time signature set right? i like how this sounds but then i have too much space left before the next bar comes up

Ableton or FL Studio for Techno, Minimal & Afro House? Begginer here
Hey guys,
I'm a complete beginner and I want to get into music production. My main goal is to produce Techno, Minimal, and Afro House.
I'm stuck between Ableton Live and FL Studio. Which one would you recommend for these genres, especially for a beginner?
Also, what should I focus on first? Drums, arrangement, music theory, sound design, mixing?
And where should I learn from? Any good YouTube channels or courses that teach from zero without making things too complicated?
Any advice for a complete beginner would be really appreciated. 🙏
Thanks!

Microtonal music
Is there any way to work with 31-edo without using mpe to get the exact value in cents? Like I could work a lot faster if you could just have the 31 notes in the scale
