Comping

Comping lets you break down multiple passes of your audio/MIDI performance into individual takes. Then simply select your favorite parts and merge them into one perfect take. The comping function also allows you to combine samples from your collection to create new sound structures.

Parallel editing of multiple tracks

You can link multiple tracks and edit them simultaneously with just a few clicks. This allows you to edit groups of synths or entire tape recordings in one go. This function also applies to MIDI tracks.

Integrating MPE controllers

Special MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) Hardware can control multiple parameters of a single note in real time. This MIDI playing style is now also possible in combination with Ableton Live 11: Give chord notes more expressive power by applying bends, slides and pressure playing techniques. Create subtle variations, morphing chords and more lively textures in no time at all.

More effects, more possibilities

You can never have enough effects, which is why the suite now brings you more tools. There's Hybrid Reverb, for example, which combines convolution reverb with algorithmic Hall to create either real reverb rooms or sound worlds beyond physical reality. Then there's the Spectral Resonator, which deforms any audio signal beyond recognition, and Spectral Time for lively echoes with freeze, Glitch and stutter features. Find out what else is on board in the video.

Flexibility on stage

Software that responds to your own instrument playing like a real bandmate? With dynamic tempo adjustment, Ableton Live 11 automatically adjusts to the tempo of incoming signals. In this way, the software becomes a dynamic bandmate rather than the beat-setter that everyone else must necessarily follow.

Micro Snapshots

Macro knob settings can be saved and recalled later - perfect for spontaneous sound variations or builds and drops on stage.

Optimizations in the rack

In Live 11, you can now add up to 16 macro controls to your Live Racks. While the Random button brings randomness into play, custom MIDI mappings can create spontaneous sound changes that are sure to surprise your audience and yourself.
