There’s a new synthesiser instrument called Wavetable (yeah, it’s a wavetable synth). Moving beyond the cosmetics, though, are the new and updated devices. Buttons highlight when your pointer lingers over them, giving a little extra orientation assist.
ABLETON LIVE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS SKIN
Live’s ‘Skins’ are renamed as ‘Themes’ – there are only five to choose from, and they’re more focused around the subdued end of the spectrum – which makes sense, because Live 9’s Disco skin is popular it looks cool and works well on a practical level.Ībleton has had its own typeface designed as well, so text looks a little different. The interface, already the cleanest DAW workspace around, has been polished further, with improved clarity in all the right places. I’ve been running the beta since late August, so I’ve had time to get familiar with it (keeping it quiet has been absolute torture), and I guess what you want to know is, is it worth the wait and worth the upgrade?Īs soon as Live 10 opens, you know you’re not in Live 9 any more and you’re never going back. Live 10 will be available in three versions, as before – Intro, Standard, and Suite.
ABLETON LIVE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FULL
It’s not available as a final release as I’m writing this, so bear in mind that anything described here can change, and we’ll be doing a full final review when the official release happens, probably after a long-ish public beta phase –but there’s no way we’re going to wait until then before taking a look! But sooner or later, the big updates have to come, and Live 10 is on the way. So no, it’s not like they’ve been twiddling their thumbs in Berlin. You could also factor Push 2 into that timeline… oh yes, and Ableton Link, too. Of course, that’s not the whole story – since then, we’ve enjoyed a stream of ongoing free updates and new features Live 9.7 is quite a different beast from Live 9.0. It’s over five years since Ableton released Live 9, which is a long time in DAW-land. Here’s that review again, in case you missed it the first time, and stay tuned for a long-term test review following up very shortly. I’ve been on the Live 10 beta since August, and wrote our review of the public beta release a little while back. If you haven’t got on board yet, you can download the time-limited demo and take Live 10 for a test drive, I think you’ll be impressed. If you haven’t already heard from Ableton, you can log into your account and start the download process, making sure you grab all the extra content packs as well. Update (6/2/17) – Ableton Live 10 is now available.
