Own Ableton Live 7? Fancy the 4 new effects, improved warping, totally revamped groove engine and enhanced MIDI editor that Live 8 adds? Then you need the Live 8 upgrade!
With the new features listed above Ableton have actually managed to improve on the already damn near perfect Ableton Live 7. The new groove engine really is absolutely fantastic so, when you find that killer sample you don't just get the drums, you get the drummer! The new Live Looper is another outstanding feature, giving you endless sound-on-sound style overdub recording. It's a feature which will appeal to the Les Paul guitar worshippers and synth-freakout merchants alike! With these plus the added functionality of the enhanced MIDI editor and the massively improved warping this latest version proves to be awfully tempting.
As always, Ableton manage to improve on their already incredible package with solid, worthwhile improvements that make this upgrade pack exceptionally good value for money.
Ableton Live is about making music; for composition, songwriting, recording, production, remixing and live performance. Live's nonlinear, intuitive flow, alongside powerful real-time editing and flexible performance options, make it a unique studio tool and a favorite with live performers. If you'd rather be "making music" than just "using music software," Ableton Live is for you. Live 8, the latest version, includes a wealth of new techniques and improvements with a new groove engine, revamped warping, live looping, new effects, crossfades in the Arrangement View and a reworked MIDI editor.
