About Marcelo
I’m Marcelo Vig, a professional drummer, music producer, and Ableton Certified Trainer with years of experience both in the studio and touring, as well as helping artists and creators turn ideas into finished, expressive music. My work combines the precision of a producer with the sensitivity of a live performer — a balance that I bring into every lesson. Over the past two decades, I’ve collaborated with renowned artists in Brazil and abroad, while teaching in respected programs such as university-level music and production courses. This mix of academic experience and industry practice allows me to guide students at any level — from their first beat to professional releases. Students describe my approach as clear, motivating, and deeply musical. I believe in building skills that last: a solid workflow, creative discipline, and the confidence to express your own artistic voice. You can expect a respectful, structured, and inspiring learning environment — one that values both creativity and professionalism.

My teaching method combines creativity and structure. Each lesson balances musical expression, technical mastery, and real-world application. Whether we’re working on beat-making, drum programming, or complete song production, I adapt to the student’s goals and level — from beginner producers learning the basics of Ableton Live to advanced musicians refining their artistic identity. A typical session begins by identifying what you want to create, then breaking that idea into clear, achievable steps: sound design, rhythm construction, arrangement, and mix flow. We build the track together while discussing the “why” behind each choice — developing not only skills, but also creative confidence and an authentic musical voice. What sets me apart is my background as both a professional drummer and Ableton Certified Trainer. I bring a deep rhythmic understanding to music production, connecting traditional groove with modern electronic tools. My students learn how to think like artists, not just operators — transforming creative blocks into music that feels alive. These lessons are ideal for producers, drummers, and artists of any style who want to improve their workflow, strengthen their sense of groove, and develop a personal sound using Ableton Live or hybrid setups.

Marcelo is super easy to learn from. He explains things in a way that just clicks, without sounding technical or over the top.
Every class feels like hanging out with someone who actually knows how the music world works — studio stories, live gig insights, all that good stuff. Helped me a ton.Marcelo brings a very rare combination of clarity, experience and artistic direction. His approach is structured, thoughtful and highly effective.
He helped me refine my workflow and elevate the quality of my productions in a short time. Excellent mentor for anyone serious about growing.Besides the fact that Marcelo is an excellent musician, the knowledge he has about production and recording , with expertise on Ableton Live, puts him at the forefront of creation . Sharing all this information with students and musicians and producers is really important!
I consider myself an advanced user of Ableton life since I use this DAW for more than 20 years, since its first release, 30 October 2001.
Well, when I am in trouble, guess who I call?See more recommendations
