Ableton Live Intro 12 - Lifetime Account

Ableton Live is the digital audio workstation from the Berlin company Ableton AG, with a Session View for launching clips live and an Arrangement View for building tracks on a timeline. It is used by producers, performers and sound designers who want to move quickly from a first idea to a finished arrangement, with audio warping, MIDI editing, a set of instruments and effects and close integration with controllers and hardware. Intro is the entry-level edition of Live 12: it is unlocked in the Live installation downloaded from Ableton, with the core instruments, effects and sounds of that edition.

This product is account access to Ableton Live Intro 12 for life: you receive the login details by email and use the service for a number of users not stated by the supplier (Windows and macOS).

A session often starts in the Session View, where loops, recorded takes and MIDI clips are triggered until the structure of the piece becomes clear; the clips are then moved to the Arrangement View, where edits, automation and transitions are refined. Mixing happens on the same screen, with effects on the channels and on return tracks, and the finished project is exported to WAV, AIFF, MP3 or FLAC, as a single file or as separate stems.

Key Features:

• Session View: Clips are organised in a grid of scenes and launched in sync with the project tempo, so the same set can be used to sketch ideas and to play on stage.
• Arrangement View: A classic timeline for clips, edits and automation; the two views stay linked, so material can be moved from one to the other at any point in the work.
• Audio warping: Every audio file is analysed and can follow the tempo of the project, so loops, recordings and samples from different sources stay in time and can be stretched or re-timed.
• Instruments, effects and sound library: Synthesisers, samplers, drum devices, audio and MIDI effects and bundled sound packs are installed with the program; how many of them are available depends on the edition.
• MIDI editing and hardware control: Notes are edited in the piano roll with quantisation, groove and scale tools, and any parameter can be mapped to a MIDI controller, to the computer keyboard or to gear synchronised through Ableton Link.
