Ableton Live 11.3.25 Suite with Live Packs

New in Max for Live:

• New API Additions: a redesigned, MPE-compatible note API gives Max for Live access to Live 11’s new note features — probability, velocity deviation, and release velocity. You can also now access slices of a sample loaded in Simpler, a clip or sample’s warp markers, and much more.
• MIDI Channel Routings: it is now possible to route MIDI to and from Max for Live audio effects and instruments. Inputs and outputs are routable and show up in a track’s MIDI From and MIDI To choosers.
• Improvements for Device Creators: a new live.scope object adds an oscilloscope to the object library. Double-clicking an error in the Max Console jumps the cursor to the device causing the error. A new Max for Live category in the Inspector Window allows developers to more clearly indicate which systems their devices can be used on, and much more.
• Performance Improvements: a complete overhaul of Max for Live’s user interface integration means a smoother experience when working with Max for Live devices, including improvements to focus, positioning, scrolling behavior, and performance.

New packs and effects:

• Voice Box: a comprehensive collection of contemporary vocal samples from multiple voices, a set of playable vocal instruments, and Effect Racks designed for vocal processing.
• Drone Lab: sustained tonal and textural samples, generative noise, multi-sampled instruments, plus devices and Effect Racks designed for experimentation.
• Mood Reel: evocative layered instruments that combine organic and synthetic sounds with textural elements to add mood, space, and movement to productions.
• Upright Piano: Upright Piano is close recorded for an intimate feel — a classic sound that is at home in many styles of music. Created in collaboration with Spitfire Audio.
• Brass Quartet: this instrument highlights the natural breathiness, range of expression, and broad tonality of the brass quartet. Created in collaboration with Spitfire Audio.
• String Quartet: a great starting point for sonic exploration, this combination of two violins, viola, and cello has a sound that is immediately intimate. Created in collaboration with Spitfire Audio.
• Hybrid Reverb: combines convolution and algorithmic reverbs, making it possible to create any space, from accurate real-life environments to those that defy physical reality.
• Spectral Time: transforms sound into partials and feeds them into a frequency-based delay, resulting in metallic echoes, frequency-shifted, and reverb-like effects. The Freeze function captures and holds audio.
• Spectral Resonator: breaks the spectrum of an incoming audio signal into partials, then stretches, shift, and blurs the result by a frequency or a note in subtle or radical ways. Play it like an instrument with MIDI.
• Inspired by Nature: six playful instruments and effects that use natural and physical processes as their inspiration. Created in collaboration with Dillon Bastan.

New functions:

• Comping: Live organizes multiple passes of an audio or MIDI performance into individual takes. Combine the best of many takes or find creative new combinations.
• Linked-track editing: link two or more audio or MIDI tracks to edit or comp their content simultaneously.
• MPE Compatibility: add bends, slides, and pressure for each individual note in a chord. Add subtle expression variations, morph between chords, and create evolving sonic textures.
• MPE-capable Native Devices: Wavetable, Sampler, and Arpeggiator now support MPE. Use Push’s pad pressure to control parameters per note.
• Expression View: add and edit pitch, timbre, and pressure variations of individual notes directly in a new tab in the Clip Detail View.
• Tempo Following: Live listens to and adjusts its tempo based on incoming audio in real time, making it a dynamic part of the band instead of the tempo source that everyone has to follow.
• Note Chance: set the probability that a note or drum hit will occur and let Live generate surprising variations to your patterns that change over time.
• Velocity Chance: define ranges for velocity probability for subtle, humanized variations in the dynamics of your patterns.
• Follow Actions: Live 11 adds Scene Follow Actions for evolving arrangements. Follow Actions can now jump to specific clips and enable and disable Follow Actions globally.
• Macro Snapshots: store the state of Macros for later recall — this is a fast way to create instant variations to sounds or builds and drops during a performance.
• Variable Macros: set your Racks up to have between one and 16 Macros.
• Randomized Macro Values: randomize the state of your Macros or map the randomization button to MIDI.
