[NAMM] Cycling'74 Max For Live

Available as an add-on product to Ableton’s newly announced Live 8, Max for Live permits users to create devices that extend and customize Live by creating instruments, controllers, audio effects, and MIDI processors.

Devices developed with Max for Live utilize the same features as those created by Ableton engineers. This includes UI controls, MIDI mapping, multiple undo, tempo-based effects, sample-accurate automation, and comprehensive file and preset management. Devices created in Max can be shared with Ableton’s new web collaboration features. A “preview mode” feature permits editing in Max while devices continue to process audio and/or MIDI as if they were inside Live. When an edited device is saved, it updates in place inside Live’s device view.

Availability and Pricing
Max for Live will be available from Ableton later this year. Pricing information will be announced when Max for Live is released.
