Not new to 13 but I love Ableton's clean UI. Similar to Blender, it's how all creative apps (and systems!) should do it.

Wish they would add Linux support. What is the best option for Linux?

New to music production but really want to give it a try. Can somebody please recommend resources/courses for beginners and which Abelton edition to buy: lite, intro, standard, suite? Also I was wondering if it is worth to buy akai mpk mini (play) to start with?

The style of marketing page does not live up to the software's quality.

I remember these were the software programs that had no good alternative back in the day.

SketchUp, after Google offloaded it, became paid software.

All these FL Studio, Ableton, etc.

SketchUp has already been cloned as Ketchup. I wonder if FL Studio and Ableton will soon be cloned?

pretty sure someone is already doing egui rust clone.

So much good stuff there, hard to pick a favorite. Also cool to see that the device list in channel strips is finally stable (it’s been an options.txt thing for years)

I'm excited about the Transient shaper. Hopefully I can finally ditch my beefy SPL transient designer.

I don't know what Ableton have done to that webpage but 3/3 attempts to open it in Chrome on Android have caused a crash when I try to scroll down. Oh well, I guess I'll need to find out what's new in Ableton 13 somewhere else.

If I were considering this as a Christmas gift for a 16-year-old who likes making things in Garage Band, would the Lite edition still be a step up, or should I more seriously consider the next level up?

As a daily user of Ableton, I'm pretty excited about this. Especially the Capture Automation/Step Sequencer/Multiband rack types.

I'm not a fan boy of any companies or tools, but Live has continued to impress me with each release.

extremely badly made website

I'm almost a little bit disappointed agentic editing didn't find it's way into Ableton yet.

I can easily clone this software in a week.
