KEY UPDATES AND ADDITIONS

COMPING

Comping
Live organizes multiple passes of an audio or MIDI performance into individual takes. Combine the best of many takes or find creative new combinations.

MPE

MPE compatibility
Add bends, slides and pressure for each individual note in a chord. Add subtle expression variations, morph between chords and create evolving sonic textures.

Expression View
Add and edit pitch, timbre and pressure variations of individual notes directly in a new tab in the Clip Detail View.

MPE-capable native devices
Wavetable, Sampler and Arpeggiator now support MPE. Use Pushs pad pressure to control parameters per note.

UPDATED DEVICES:

Chorus-Ensemble
The updated version of Chorus now has a wider range of sound shaping capabilities add vibrato, spread the left and right channels of the signal across the stereo field, and add thick 3-delay line chorus.

Redux
Redux adds a wider range of sounds from vintage digital gear including harsh distortion, digital and aliasing artifacts, as well as warm and saturated 8-bit textures.

Phaser-Flanger
Phaser and Flanger have been combined and now feature a new, lusher sound with increased frequency and modulation ranges, expressive improvements on existing modes, and a new Doubler mode for short modulatable delay.

RACK IMPROVEMENTS

Macro Variations
Store the state of Macros for later recall this is a fast way to create instant variations to sounds, or builds and drops during a performance.

Flexible Macro Configuration
Set your Racks up to have between 1 and 16 Macros.

Randomized Macro values
Randomize the state of your Macros or map the randomization button to MIDI.

LIVE TEMPO FOLLOWING

Tempo following
Live listens to and adjusts its tempo based on incoming audio in real time, making it a dynamic part of the band instead of the tempo source that everyone has to follow.

CHANCE TOOLS

Note chance
Set the probability that a note or drum hit will occur and let Live generate surprising variations to your patterns that change over time.

Velocity chance
Define ranges for velocity probability for subtle, humanized variations in the dynamics of your patterns.

Follow Actions
Live 11 adds Scene Follow Actions for evolving arrangements. Follow Actions can now jump to specific clips and enable and disable Follow Actions globally.
