Terms and Conditions

Last updated: 30 October 2026

1. Who we are

Lessons in Live is run by Camiel Daamen, Carrer del Ferro 24, 46022 Valencia, Spain. VAT number: ESY8563711C. E-mail: info@lessonsinlive.com. You can also reach us through the contact form.

In these terms, “we” and “us” means Lessons in Live, and “you” means the person who buys or books something from us.

2. When these terms apply

These terms apply to everything you buy or book through lessonsinlive.com: live courses and private lessons, online courses, plug-ins and apps, sample packs, preset packs, MIDI packs and templates, gift cards, and mixing and mastering services. When you place an order or book a course, you accept these terms. The version that was online when you ordered applies to that order.

The Dojo community runs on Patreon: Patreon’s terms apply to the membership and its payments.

If you buy as a consumer, these terms never take away the rights that consumer law gives you.

3. Prices and payment

Prices in the shop are in euros and include VAT where it applies. Course prices are shown on the course page; where it says “excl. VAT”, VAT is added when it applies to you.

In the shop you pay by card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay or iDEAL. For live courses and private lessons you receive an invoice by e-mail and pay it using the payment details on that invoice.

4. Live courses and private lessons

Booking. Every course starts with a free intake call. Your place is confirmed when we confirm it to you in writing (by e-mail). If a course is full, we offer you a place in the next group.

What you need. A computer with Ableton Live, headphones and a stable internet connection for the online classes. Some courses list extra requirements on the course page.

Payment. The course fee is due at least 14 days before the first lesson. If you pay in two instalments, the first is due 14 days before the first lesson and the second before the fifth week of the course. An early bird price applies when you book before the date shown on the course page. If you don’t pay on time, we may give your place to someone else.

Cancelling. You can cancel your booking free of charge up to 14 days before the course starts. If you cancel later, or stop during the course, the course fee isn’t refunded. In case of long illness or force majeure, we look for a solution together, such as joining a later group. This doesn’t affect your legal right of withdrawal (see section 7).

Recordings. You may not record the classes yourself. We record the online classes and share them privately with the participants of your group. Don’t share these recordings or links with anyone else. If you record or share classes after a warning, we may remove you from the course without a refund, and spreading course material can lead to legal action.

Behaviour. Treat the teacher and the other participants with respect. We may remove a participant from a course for serious or repeated misconduct.

Photos and video. We sometimes take photos or video during classes. If you don’t want to be in them, just tell the teacher.

Changes by us. If a class can’t go ahead (for example because of illness or technical problems), we move it to a new date.

5. Plug-ins, apps and other digital products

Your licence. When you buy a plug-in, app, pack, template or online course, you get a personal, non-exclusive and non-transferable licence to use it. The product itself stays ours.

Serials and computers. One serial works on two computers, Mac or Windows (Driftwood, Resample Me and Lil Modular: three). Activating needs an internet connection once. Moving to a new computer? Deactivate the old one first. Don’t share your serial, and don’t copy, crack, reverse-engineer, rent out or resell our software.

Free trial. Our plug-ins and apps can be tried for free for 30 days before you buy. After the trial, they work with the limits described on the product page until you activate them. Please use the trial to check that a product works on your computer and in your DAW.

Updates. Updates of the product you bought are free for as long as we offer them. We aren’t obliged to keep developing a product or to support future operating systems. System requirements are on each product page and in the manual.

Sounds, presets, MIDI and templates. You may use our sounds, presets, MIDI patterns and templates royalty-free in your own music, including music you release and sell. You may not resell, share or redistribute the sounds, presets, MIDI files or templates themselves, on their own or as part of another sample pack, preset pack or library.

Online courses. Access is personal. Don’t share your login or the course videos.

Delivery. Downloads and serials are sent by e-mail right after payment and are always in My account. Please keep your own backup of your downloads.

6. Gift cards and discount codes

Gift cards can be used in our shop under the conditions shown on the gift card, and can’t be exchanged for cash. Discount codes are valid under their own conditions (for example a limited number of uses or one per person) and can’t be combined unless we say so.

7. Right of withdrawal

Digital products. As a consumer in the EU you normally have 14 days to withdraw from an online purchase. For digital content (downloads, serials and online courses), this right ends as soon as the download or access starts: when you order, you ask us to deliver right away and you agree that you lose the right of withdrawal from that moment.

Courses, lessons and services. You can withdraw within 14 days of booking. If you asked us to start within those 14 days, you pay for the part that has already taken place.

Problems with a product. If something doesn’t work as described, contact us. We look at every case personally and do our best to solve it. Your legal rights for products that don’t work as promised always remain.

8. Mixing and mastering

When you send us music to mix or master, you confirm that you own the rights to it or have permission to use it. We only use your music to do the job you ordered. Prices and delivery are as shown on the service page or as agreed by e-mail.

9. Support and Pluggy

For help, see the Support page or contact us. Pluggy, the support chat on our site, is an AI assistant. Its answers are meant to help, but they can be wrong: the manuals and product pages come first, and nothing Pluggy says is a promise or changes these terms.

10. Liability

We do our best to make our products, courses and services work well, but we can’t guarantee they are free of errors or work with every computer, setup or version of other software. Always keep backups of your projects. We aren’t liable for indirect damage such as lost data, lost projects or lost income. Our liability is limited to the amount you paid for the product or service, except in cases of intent or gross negligence, or where the law doesn’t allow us to limit it.

If you take part in a course, you are responsible for your own equipment and for damage you cause through your own actions.

11. Force majeure

We aren’t responsible for delays or cancellations caused by circumstances beyond our control, such as illness, power or internet failures, failure of suppliers or equipment, strikes, extreme weather or government measures. In those cases we look for a new date or another solution with you.

12. Intellectual property

All course materials, videos, software, sounds, texts and images of Lessons in Live belong to us or are used with permission. You may only use them as these terms allow.

13. Privacy

How we handle your personal data is explained in our privacy policy.

14. Applicable law

Spanish law applies to these terms. If you are a consumer living in another EU country, you also keep the protection of the mandatory consumer rules of your own country. If there’s a problem, please contact us first: we always try to solve it together.
