Overview
Ableton Live for Mac is software for creating musical ideas, turning them into finished songs, and even taking them onto the stage. With two views - the classic Arrangement View, where musical ideas are laid out along a timeline, and the unique Session View, where you can improvise and quickly experiment with musical ideas - Ableton Live for macOS is a fast, fun, intuitive way to make music. Ableton Live comes in three editions: Intro, Standard, and Suite. The editions share common features, but Standard and Suite have additional features, Instruments, Packs, and Effects.
