Student-facing instructions
Your task is to conduct a listening session where you play your current music drafts using Ableton. Gather feedback on arrangement, sound choices, and genre blending from your partner and community collaborators. Use a structured format for feedback collection, such as a feedback form or guiding questions. After collecting feedback, synthesize it to identify key revision areas. Create a revision plan detailing the changes you will make, including the reasoning behind them. Finally, share your plan and reflect on the feedback process.
