Record, sequence, and loop, all without missing a beat. And with a treasure trove of integrated processors, effects, and instrument sounds onboard, you'll never run out of options when you get creative with Ableton Live 10 Standard.

An ideal DAW for creative artists

From the beginning, Ableton Live has been as much a creative tool as a DAW. That largely has to do with the way Live lets you construct tracks and play with audio in real time. There are two main parts to Live: the Session View, and the Arrangement View. The Arrangement View is more or less a standard linear DAW, with time on the X axis and tracks on the Y axis.
Where Live differs from other DAWs is its Session View, which puts individual tracks on the X axis and scenes on the Y axis. Each scene contains a slot on each channel for a clip. Clips are usually short pieces of audio or MIDI a few measures long or shorter, which loop to create grooves. Launched individually, these loops let you experiment with your arrangements, trying out various combinations of grooves and riffs.

Create & Capture

Turn your most spontaneous ideas into music, with the Capture function, which records any MIDI data into a buffer that can be re-called at any time. This allows you to freely experiment with ideas without the pressure of getting right. When an idea emerges, simply press Capture after you​'ve​ played it. Live will match your tempo and timing, and start your melody or groove in a perfect loop. Also​, ​Live 10 now enables you to edit multiple MIDI clips across multiple tracks within a single view from both the Session and Arrangement views.

Arrange Performances with greater Fluidity

​The Arrangement View has been optimized for quick creative editing and more efficient song creation. Easily stretch a clip, slide its content or create audio fades with new clip interactions that work directly in the Arrangement. Automate with greater control using grid snapping and other improved breakpoint interactions. Focus instantly on what you need to with quick keyboard shortcuts: toggle automation visibility for all tracks, zoom in and out of selections of your song, nudge clips, and even make audio edits like reversing samples.​​

Raising the bar on standard included content

In the ever-escalating battle to provide the most content for the money, Ableton Live 10 Standard more than holds its own. Packed with 1800+ Sounds (10GB+), five virtual Instruments, 42 effects, and 16 content packs, Live 10 Standard is no joke. It puts drums and sample-based instruments at your fingertips, old-school breakbeats and modern electronic music tools at your disposal, and all of the distortion, modulation, and other basic effects you could ask for right in your DAW. Of course, you also get essentials such as EQ, dynamics, and real-time analysis tool, and with unlimited AU and VST plug-in support, the included content is only the beginning.
