General
Ableton Live 9 Standard music production software (French) is an innovative composition package that helps you produce music live. This package has earned quite a reputation since the introduction of the first version of Ableton Live at the end of 2001 and has been used by artists such as Armin van Buuren, Daft Punk, Deadmau5, Junkie XL, William Orbit, Skrillex and Paul van Dyk. While the package isn’t by any means genre-specific, it has certainly made quite a name for itself in a number of Electro genres. With Ableton, you get software that combines minimalism with extravagance. The minimalism lies in the simplicity of a clip (a piece of MIDI or audio, loop or single-shot), and the extravagance comes with combining huge numbers of clips.
New functions in the Ableton Live 9 Standard
Version 9 has plenty of new innovations to offer. For starters, the new browser makes it faster to find just the right sound, which is certainly an asset for a live system such as Ableton. The Standard edition has a sizeable 11GB sound library comprising 1,100 sounds that cover a wide variety of genres, from dance to pop to club. Another new feature is the ability to automatize parameters via a controller or by drawing curves with a mouse, which comes in handy if you’ve made a number of clips that you’ve constructed into a song. A large number of effects, such as an analogue modelling compressor, are all at the ready so you can give your project some extra flair and finesse.
Who is this software for?
Ableton is surprisingly accessible, which has been a big factor in its wild popularity. Thanks to new features such as the audio-to-MIDI function, users with very little music knowledge can produce high-quality compositions. The function actually works to extract musical information from the audio, such as the pitch from vocals. In other words, if you can sing, then you can compose with Ableton! This software has gained so much popularity in the Electro genre because it’s quite similar to the structure of the genre. That doesn’t mean that you can’t create mainstream music with this package, it just requires a different method of thinking and planning. If you want to make live music on stage, then Ableton is most definitely the software for you—add an Ableton controller to the mix and the show is complete.
