Ableton Live 8 - An Outstanding Type Of Music Software

Ableton Live 8 - The Brand Marches On

Ableton Live 8 since it's birth in 2001 has been something of an enigma in the world of music production software. It has long been accepted as one of the most reliable and efficient tools for professional quality music production, but it has somehow managed to evade the notoriety that is so often afforded to many of it's competitors. Some have questioned whether this almost flawless record has come at the cost of some of the bite of the others, the ghost in the machine as it were.

For the most part, the music production aspect of the program relies on loops, musicians either load pre-made samples onto a track which Ableton then automatically loops, or create their own loops using synthesizers for arrangement. The software includes a number of synths and drum machines that are fairly simple to use, but using 3rd party software is also fairly easy.

This ability to easily include software synthesizers and effects from other developers is one of Abletons key strengths. Compatibility issues are virtually unheard of and no special software is needed to use plugins be they VST, Reason, Cubase or any of the other major formats. Again the process is incredibly simple and knowledge of computers or music software is not required at all.

Live is also fully compatible with ReWire devices so can be used in combination with all of the other main music making software either as a host or a slave. It has become one of the industry standards, the wealth of artists who use it both as a performance tool and music recording software is testament to this programs power and versatility.

As a complete studio this piece of software also delivers excellent results, allowing musicians to easily record and edit their work. Much easier than a 4 track or analogue recording device, the incredibly intuitive interface makes it a matter of childsplay to record and edit your work. Sounds are automatically converted into easily editable files which can be edited and played around with just like you would with any digital file.

Although the software is incredibly simple to learn and operate, this can be deceptive at times as users can forget that they are using an incredibly powerful sound engine. Although most people can learn the basics in a few afternoons, making music that can do it justice remains unattainable for all but a few.

As a tool for live performance it is also developing into a serious option which can be used by DJs simply to mix music or as an instrument itself with specialized controllers which allowing fast access to hundreds of samples which can be mixed and edited on the fly producing some incredible sets and pieces of music. It is also a fairly safe platform with crashes and bugs incredibly rare. This was a complaint often made about earlier versions but with this edition they seem to finally have all of the crashes and bugs ironed out of the system.

Ableton Live continues the series rich tradition of providing excellent all round Best DJ Software giving you incredibly intuitive and effective control over your art as a live performance tool or recording studio. You can search online for other DJ equipment.
