Live has been a favorite of electronica and remix artists for both stage and studio work, and Ableton has been building towards attracting a wider audience. The latest version, Live 6, may be the biggest upgrade in its history, opening the doors for a much wider group of users to take advantage of its creative power. Live 6 boasts several performance-boosting features that allow Live to integrate seamlessly into a variety of music production and post-production tasks.
Ableton Live 6 At a Glance:
- QuickTime Support
- Support for Muliple and Multi-core Processors
- New Essential Instrument Collection
- Improved Processing Tools
QuickTime Support
Arguably the biggest new feature in Live 6 is the ability to import QuickTime files into Live sessions with drag-and-drop ease. The audio portion of the clip can be processed like you'd process any other audio file. Support for video has been one of the most requested features, and its realization opens Live up for broader use by film scorers and commercial composers.
Support for Muliple and Multi-core Processors
Live was one of the first to jump feet-first into the Universal Binary platform, and Live 6 takes it a step further. Now users with multiple processors and multiple-core processors will experience a dramatic increase in performance. In Live 5, Ableton introduced Clip Freeze, which creates and plays back sample files for all clips in the track, preserving CPU. New in Live 6, Deep Freeze expands the Clip Freeze function by allowing you to edit, copy, paste, duplicate, cut, and trim sections, as well as add automation. Deep Freeze will also render virtual instrument tracks into audio tracks.
New Essential Instrument Collection
The boxed version of Live 6 adds a new Essential Instrument Collection. This assortment of new instruments covers everything from classic pianos to plucked instruments to simulated choirs. The multi-gigabyte library of sounds is from the SONiVOX (formerly Sonic Implants) premium collections and integrates seamlessly into Live 6 using the included Simpler instrument. On the creation side of things, Live 6 also boasts instrument and Rack effects for tweaking sounds. There are very few limitations when working within a Rack - you can have parallel device chains, VST/AU plug-ins, and even other Racks. Any number of effects, plug-ins, Racks, or instruments can be utilized inside a single Rack. To get you started, Ableton included several preset Rack configurations ranging from synthesis to mastering. Your favorite custom settings can be easily saved with drag-and-drop ease.
Improved Processing Tools
Finally, Live 6 brings improved processing tools to the table. EQ Eight doubles the number of previously available EQ bands and leans more toward a professional studio than its predecessor. Dynamic Tube mimics vintage tube distortion and also lets you create your own tube-flavored distortion. Saturator has been upgraded to include a user-defined waveshaper, and you can create custom distortion sounds. No matter how hard you push the Saturator, the second saturator stage prevents the signal from peaking higher than 0dB.
