Ableton Live 10, released in February 2018, can handle many musical tasks in style. The software music sequencer and digital audio workstation is compatible with Windows and Mac and is the latest major version of Live.

In addition to being used for mixing, recording, composing and arranging sound, it can also be used as a tool during live performances when we dub ourselves with Ableton Push. Many DJs use it as it provides them with controls to control beats with a certain level of skill.

Key features included in Ableton Live 10 Standard Edition:

• Unlimited audio and MIDI tracks
• Unlimited Scenes
• Audio to MIDI
• Audio cutting
• MIDI Capture
• 256 mono audio input channels
• 256 mono audio output channels
• 1800+ sounds (10+ GB)

The music creation and performance software is available in three different versions; Intro, Standard and Lux. They all share common features, but Standard and Suite have additional features, packages, tools, and effects.

The Standard Edition boasts 12 send and return stacks, complex warp modes, five software instruments, eight MIDI effects, and 34 sound effects. If you buy the download version, you get a Live 10 installer to download from your account, a PDF manual, and the same sounds as in the boxed version. You will receive a USB drive and included packages if you purchase the boxed version.

Ableton says those who invest in Live 10 will be limited only by their imagination, promising that the software gives the user flexibility and freedom. With Push, an Ableton tool built specifically for Live, you can get all the convenience of using software through direct use of the hardware.

All in all, Ableton Live 10 offers the user a real miracle of Aladdin’s Cave style musical control. This exciting update to the already established and respected Live series has already been praised for its countless new effects and power-ups.
