* Find sounds fast: Live's new browser puts all instruments, effects, samples, and plug-ins in one easy-to-navigate view. Automation can move together with clips between Arrangement and Session View. * Session automation: In Session View, automation can now be recorded in real time directly within clips. Almost everything in Live works in real-time - add, reorder or remove devices, play with Live's flexible track routing and more all without interrupting your creative flow. Freely and independently start and stop any number of audio or MIDI loops - everything stays in sync. Live's Arrangement View is a familiar working space: time moves from left to right, while tracks are stacked vertically.īut Live also features the revolutionary Session View: a uniquesketchpad for improvising, playing and performing with musical ideas, without the constraints of the timeline. If you've used music software before, you're already familiar with one half of Ableton Live. Create ideas, make changes without stopping, and capture everything as you work.
