Release Notes

Stem Separation

Live Suite now features built-in stem separation that runs locally. Any recorded audio material 6 such as a song, loop, or sample 6 can be separated into four stems: Vocals, Drums, Bass, and Others. The Others stem includes all parts of the audio that are not recognized as vocals, drums, or bass.

You can separate audio files from the browser or separate clips from the Session or Arrangement View. To do so, right-click a sample in the browser or a clip in Session or Arrangement View and select Separate Stems to New Audio Tracks. Each stem is rendered onto its own track in a new Group Track. Any audio effects from the source track are also added to the Group Track. The clip used for separation is muted to avoid doubled output.

You can choose between two quality modes for the separation: High Speed and High Quality. The mode determines whether the separation process prioritizes quickness or accuracy. In High Speed mode, all stems are separated in a single pass, so the process will be faster, though it may still take several minutes on older system configurations. In High Quality mode, the separation accuracy is improved (as measured by a higher Signal-to-Distortion Ratio, i.e., SDR score), at the cost of slower processing. The Vocals, Drums, and Bass parts are processed through their own dedicated separation passes. The Others stem is then created from the remaining audio after the three passes.

Generally speaking, the overall amount of time required for the separation process highly depends on your system configuration. Stem separation may take a while on older Windows computers, Intel Macs, and Mac computers running macOS 11 Big Sur. Due to an incompatibility issue, stem separation will also run slowly on Apple Silicon computers with macOS 26.1 Tahoe. See this article for more information on macOS compatibility with Live.

Splice Integration

Splice - the industry 27s leading sample library - is now integrated into Live 27s browser. Anyone with a free or paid Splice account can access their library, browse, preview, and download samples directly within Live.

You can browse and save samples to your Splice library, as well as preview Splice samples in sync with Live's transport. When you find a sample you like, you can drag it from the Splice label into the Session or Arrangement View. Alternatively, you can double-click the sample name or press the Enter key to load the sample into a Set.

Imported samples are saved to the User Library 1 Samples 1 Splice folder by default. You can update this location to the Current Project folder or a custom folder using the Download Folder for Splice Samples option in Live 27s Library Settings.

In addition to searching for samples, you can have Splice find samples that would fit with existing material in your Set. To do so, make a clip or time selection within Session or Arrangement View, then click the Search with Sound widget in the Home tab of the Splice label. Splice will then find and display complementary samples based on the style and rhythm of the selection.

The Key filter in the sample categories within Splice includes an 3Apply Key from DAW 4 option, which automatically detects the scale root and name set in Live 27s transport bar when Scale Mode is active. You can use this option to constrain search results to the detected key and scale. Note that only major and minor scales are supported with this option. You can also use the Transpose option in the Splice Preview settings to set different transpositions for sample playback within the Splice label or sync the Splice Preview to the Set 27s key.

By default, the Splice label is visible within the browser, but you can hide it via the 3Hide from Sidebar 4 command in its context menu. The corresponding option in Live's Library Settings will also be updated accordingly.

Note that a Splice account is required to use this feature, including non-subscription accounts (which offer around 2,500 free samples). You can follow the instructions in the Splice label to create a new account as needed.

Auto Pan-Tremolo Updates

Auto Pan now features an updated interface, including dedicated modes for panning and tremolo effects. To reflect its expanded functionality, the device has been renamed Auto Pan-Tremolo.

• Two modes are now available: Panning and Tremolo. Panning modulates the placement of the source sound in the stereo panorama, while Tremolo modulates the signal level.
• A real-time visualization displays either the current panning position in Panning mode or the current tremolo level in Tremolo mode.
• New LFO Time modes include 16th, Triplet, Dotted, and Time. In Time mode, you can set the period of the LFO in seconds, which is useful for creating very long modulation cycles.
• The Modulation Attack parameter ramps the LFO modulation when an onset occurs in the input signal. This causes the modulation to increase gradually so that it mainly affects the sustained portion of the signal. In Tremolo mode, this helps preserve transients, while in Panning mode, this keeps them in the center of the stereo field.
• The Frequency Modulation parameter dynamically scales the LFO frequency based on the input signal 27s level over time. Positive values speed up the modulation, while negative values slow it down.

Tremolo mode offers several distinctive traits:

• A single LFO waveform is available, which can be morphed using the Shape parameter and inverted using the Invert toggle. Exponential and linear ramp shapes are useful for gating and ducking effects.
• Harmonic mode modulates the signal level across fixed frequency bands in an alternating pattern, creating a dense, lush tremolo effect.
• Vintage mode introduces additional warmth and grit alongside the tremolo effect by modulating the intensity of a non-linear curve instead of the signal level.

Note that the original Auto Pan device remains available in the browser and has been renamed Auto Pan Legacy. When opening existing Sets that contain Auto Pan presets, the legacy device will be automatically loaded.

Bounce Group Tracks

It is now possible to bounce Group Tracks via two new commands: Bounce Group to New Track and Bounce Group in Place.

The Bounce Group to New Track command is available in the context menu for individual group slots or selections of group slots in Session View, and within the main lane of a Group Track in Arrangement View. The Group Track is bounced with all its processing, including any return tracks used via sends from the Group Track or any of its included tracks. For that reason, bouncing is performed from the Main track, pre-FX. The bounced audio is added as a clip to a new track.

The Bounce Group in Place command is available in a track title bar 27s context menu, as well as the context menu for group slots in Session View and for the insert marker within the main lane of a Group Track in Arrangement View. This command bounces the Group Track along with all of its processing, including return tracks, as previously described for Bounce Group to New Track. The bounced audio replaces the Group Track with a single audio track.

Note that bouncing Group Tracks works similarly to rendering Group Tracks with the Include Return and Main Effects option. The key difference is that rendering is performed post-mixer on the Main track, while bouncing is performed pre-mixer on the Main track. This means that some routing configurations may produce silence or a partial signal when bouncing Group Tracks. For example, any tracks routed outside the Group Track are not included in the bounce. Additionally, return tracks that are part of the Group Track 27s signal path are only included in the bounce if their final output reaches the Main track.

Paste Bounced Audio

It is now possible to paste bounced audio from copied material as an alternative to using the Bounce to New Track or Bounce Group to New Track command.

To do this, first copy one or more clips in Session View, or a time selection in the Arrangement, from a single MIDI, audio, or Group Track using the regular Copy command. Then, right-click in an audio track, an empty MIDI track, or a take lane, and select the Paste Bounced Audio command from the context menu or the Edit menu. The copied material will then be bounced and pasted onto the track or lane.

Note that the source material is bounced in its current state when Paste Bounced Audio is used. This means you can modify the material and use the command again to create variations. Additionally, if the material is deleted, the Paste Bounced Audio command will no longer be available.

Device A/B Comparison

Two new entries have been added to the device title bar 27s Options menu: Compare: Switch to A/B and Compare: Copy A/B to B/A.

You can use Compare: Switch to A/B to toggle between two different device states: A and B. Each state can have its own unique set of parameter values. You can, for example, use state A for tweaking values while leaving state B at the device 27s default settings, and then switch between the two to assess the differences. The corresponding shortcut for comparing device states is P.

To copy the current parameter settings from one device state to another, use Compare: Copy A/B to B/A. This is useful for preserving specific parameter changes that you want to keep while freeing up the other state for more experimentation.

Note that this feature is also accessible via the Max for Live API.

New Features and Improvements

Arrangement View

• In Arrangement clips, MIDI notes where the note start is not part of the Arrangement will not be drawn, since they should not be played.
• In the Arrangement View, the Insert Empty MIDI Clip command can now be used without time selection and will insert a clip at the insert marker. The clip length will be one bar or the currently selected grid size, whichever is longer.
• Double-clicking to create an empty MIDI clip in the Arrangement View will now work when the grid cell is not completely empty. The clip created as a result will fill the available space in the grid cell.
• It is now possible to create Arrangement MIDI clips in a definable time range by holding Shift while double-clicking.

Browser

• The browser now features new default sidebar icons for Drums, Instruments, Audio Effects, and Packs.
• Updated the icons for devices and presets to improve discoverability and to better distinguish between type (audio, MIDI, instruments) and architecture (built-in devices, Max for Live).
• When filtering for Content|Set, the results no longer show backup Sets. A new Content|Backup Set filter can be used to filter by backup Sets instead.
• When the browser is in focus, it is now possible to show and hide the Filter View and Tag Editor with the following shortcuts:
  • Filter View: Ctrl Alt G (Win) / Cmd Option G (Mac)
  • Tag Editor: Ctrl Shift E (Win) / Cmd Shift E (Mac)
• Double-clicking a tag in the Quick Tags panel now adds that tag to the search field and triggers a tag search.
• There is a new context menu entry "Show tag X in Tag Editor" available when right-clicking a tag button in the Quick Tags panel. Selecting this entry opens the Tag Editor and moves focus to the tag.
• It is now possible to hide the Splice, Cloud, and Push labels by right-clicking on them in the browser sidebar and selecting the "Hide from Sidebar" command. The corresponding options in Live's Settings will be updated accordingly.
• Note that a Splice account is required to use this feature, including non-subscription accounts (which offer around 2,500 free samples). You can follow the instructions in the Splice label to create a new account as needed.

Clip View

• It is now possible to use the "Set 1.1.1 Here" context menu command for multiple audio clips as long as all clips are of the same length and have the same warp marker positions.

Control Surfaces

• Newer control surfaces can now access an additional parameter bank in the CC Control device.
• The Move Control Surface now offers a wider array of LED brightness options when using recent firmware.
• When using the Move Control Surface, it is now possible to navigate between device parameter banks by pressing Shift and turning the wheel.

Core Library

• Added new Drum Racks and samples by Tamuz.
• Added two new templates for recording vocals and guitar.
• Added new presets for Auto Pan-Tremolo (the previous presets are now stored in the Auto Pan Legacy folder).
• Added Push XY mappings to Rack presets.
• Added small refinements to the Vocal Recording Template and Drum Rack presets.
• Fixed the Lydian Scale preset.

Interface

• Reduced the minimum mixer height, which makes it possible to substantially decrease the size of the mixer when editing clips or Arrangement content. As a result of this change:
  • The mixer pan controls will be hidden as the mixer 27s size is reduced.
  • The track activator buttons will become compressed as the mixer gets smaller.
• When using time-limited licenses (such as rent-to-own), Live now periodically displays a progress dialog during runtime while attempting to re-authorize the license. If the license has expired, a prompt to save the Set appears before saving and exporting are disabled. If no internet connection is available during the re-authorization, a prompt to retry is displayed; otherwise, saving and exporting will be disabled.
• Added purchasing options to several areas within the trial version of Live.
• Updated the What's New in Live lesson to include features from Live 12.3.
• Updated software text in various areas of Live.
• Updated various software text translations in German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, and Chinese.

Max for Live

• Updated the bundled Max version to build 9.0.9:
  • Max for Live Improvements
    • JS Live API: fixed crash when path to jsliveapi_setpathfromid is invalid
    • live.banks: support button assignments for parameter banks
    • live.grid: direction arrows redraw after click
• Read the complete release notes from Cycling '74: Max 9.0.9 Release Notes | Cycling '74
• The following attributes are now available via the Max for Live API:
  • Track.insert_device and Chain.insert_device: Inserts the specified device at the optionally provided index in the track or chain. If no index is provided, the device will be inserted at the end of the chain. The device name is the name as it appears in the browser. Only native Live devices can be inserted; Max for Live devices and plug-ins are not supported.
  • RackDevice.insert_chain: Inserts a new chain at the given index, or at the end of the chain list if no index is provided.
  • DrumChain.in_note: Get/set/observe access to the MIDI note that will trigger the chain. This is useful in conjunction with insert_chain used on RackDevices that are Drum Racks, since by default they will be created with the In Note set to "All Notes, 3 encoded by -1.

Performance

• Improved the speed of adding a new track to a Set in cases where a default audio or MIDI track is configured.
• On certain Windows laptops running under power-savings modes, the CPU meter's behavior will now be less erratic and dropouts less likely. However, it is recommended to run Live with the best performance power plans and with no CPU frequency scaling.

Setup

• A different installer technology is now used on Windows, which makes the installation and uninstallation of Live significantly faster. The installer 27s interface looks slightly different, but its functionality remains the same as before. Additional improvements include:
  • The new installer can now replace any existing Live installation going back to Live 10. When selecting an installation folder that already contains Live, the installer will offer to uninstall the existing version and replace it with the new one. Previously, this was only possible if the existing version was the same edition and version as the new one.
  • It is now possible to install Live into a folder that already contains files. In this case, the installer displays a warning and asks for confirmation. Previously, installation into a non-empty folder was not possible. Note that installing into a non-empty folder may overwrite existing files. When uninstalling Live, all files in the installation folder are removed, including those that were present before the installation.
• The Ableton USB Windows Audio Driver for Push and Move has been updated to version 5.72.0.
• The Visual C++ distributable has been updated in order for Live 27s auto-update functionality to work properly. Follow the prompt in Live 27s Status Bar to update it.

Bugfixes

• Fixed a bug where Expression Control's curve controls would not work until switching from the Velocity tab to a different tab.

• Adjusted the way Live plays back tempo automation ramps and curves to be more mathematically accurate. Previously, ramps with increasing tempo were played slightly too slow and ramps with decreasing tempo were played slightly too fast.

• Clicking on the clip title bar in the Clip View now fully scrolls Arrangement clips into view as expected, zooming out if necessary. When multiple clips are selected, all clips are scrolled into view. Previously, only the time selection start was scrolled into view.

• Fixed an issue where the volume for Group Tracks would not appear after clicking the Optimize Arrangement Height toggle. Folded Group Tracks in the Arrangement View are now taller so that the volume controls are visible again.

• Fixed an issue that occurred when using the Bounce to New Track command on a part of a clip from a frozen Group Track, where the entire bounced clip was muted instead of only the time range that was bounced, while at the same time the UI indicated that only the bounced region was muted.

• Fixed an issue where the mixer or device parameters would sometimes briefly show a wrong value when adding or bouncing a track, or loading a Set.

• Fixed a crash that occurred when discarding unsaved changes in the File Manager.

• Live will no longer crash when using the ASIO driver for audio interfaces with an odd number of output audio channels, e.g., 3 or 9 channels.

• On Windows, Live no longer hangs while working with certain videos.

• When in automation mode, take lanes can now be inserted and made visible from the tracks header context menu. When these entries are selected, the automation mode is closed in order to show the take lanes.

• Fixed an issue where crossfades would be reset after dragging and dropping a clip.

• When soloing a track, track activators for Group Tracks are now grayed out like other track activators, as expected.

• Fixed an issue where the "Reset Fades" command was disabled for clips with no fades.

• Reduced the spacing between the track index number and track name in default track names.

• The GPU renderer on Windows will now perform much better with curves such as MPE curves in the MIDI Note Editor, allocating a lot less memory. The changes should also reduce the likelihood of audio glitches that could occur because of the GPU renderer.

• Accessibility fixes:

  • Live no longer crashes when navigating the transport bar using VoiceOver.
  • Cleaned up the contents of the Control Bar for screen reader users.
  • Improved the way Live's sample rate indicator reports itself to screen readers.

• On Windows, Live will no longer crash with NVDA or Narrator screen readers when the browser or File Manager is shown or has its elements expanded.

• Fixed a bug where automatically generated files might not have adhered to the file path length limitation on Windows.

• Fixed a bug in Hybrid Reverb where the previous reverb tail was still audible after the device was turned off and then back on.

• Fixed an issue where focus was lost after closing certain views, such as the Undo History or File Manager in the Help View. Now, when one of these views is closed, focus returns to the visible main view (Arrangement or Session) as expected.

• The context menu options "Set 1.1.1 Here" and "Warp from Here" are no longer shown for the rightmost edge of a clip.

• Fixed minor timing issues that could occur when recording or bouncing clips with tempo automation.

• Fixed a crash that occurred when duplicating scenes by holding Alt (Win) / Option (Mac) and dragging them above other scenes.

• Fixed a bug on macOS that could cause Live to hang indefinitely in certain scenarios.

• Fixed a bug where duplicating multiple scenes with linked scene follow actions resulted in some of the follow actions to not be triggered as expected.

• Fixed a bug in the Komplete Kontrol S Mk3 Control Surface script that caused some pitch-related parameters to be too sensitive.

• Fixed a bug in the APC64 Control Surface script that could result in a crash when hot-swapping devices via Push.

• Fixed a bug in the Move Control Surface script that incorrectly allowed the loop menu to be accessed for audio tracks.

• Fixed a bug in the Move Control Surface script that caused step durations to be displayed incorrectly when a triplet step grid was used.

• Fixed a crash that occurred when dragging Group Tracks from the browser into a Set.

• Fixed a crash that occurred when pressing Enter with two or more selected scenes.

• Fixed a crash that could occur when clicking on specific sample references in the File Manager.

• Fixed an issue where latency would not be correctly compensated in bounced audio when using plug-ins that have a dedicated latency for offline processing.

• Fixed a bug that caused sidechaining to fail when exporting audio if the sidechain source was a Group Track and the 3Include Master and Return Effects 4 option was enabled.

• Fixed a crash that occurred when dragging files into the Arrangement.

Max for Live Bugfixes

• Clip IDs accessed by Max patches will now remain stable when clips are moved in the Arrangement View.
• Fixed the following issues in Max for Live:
  • Sending getid to a live.remote~ or live.modulate~ now returns 0 if the last mapping failed.
  • Fixed errors that occurred when undoing or redoing operations such as duplication of a Max device with a remote~ or modulate~ that has been mapped to a parameter.
• Fixed an issue where bouncing a track involving Max for Live Modulators would not work correctly if the Modulator was mapped to a device in the bounced track but was located on a different track.

Note: When saving a Set in Live 12.3 that was created in an earlier version, you will be prompted to save it under a new name.

New Features and Improvements

Control Surfaces

• Added control surface support for the Novation Launch Control XL 3.
• Improved device navigation in newer control surfaces (such as APC64 and Move) in order to better account for device selections made in Live.
• Updated the Komplete Kontrol S MK3 Control Surface:
  • Track meters are displayed using the track's color.
  • Encoders can fine-tune parameter values while Shift is held.
  • The tempo can be controlled in Tempo mode (accessed via Shift + Metro).
  • Devices can be selected, controlled, and viewed in Plugin mode.

Interface

• Updated various software text translations in French, German, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese.
• Updated software text in various areas of Live.
• The following Kilohearts plug-ins are now shown as MPE-compatible: Phase Plant, Mulitpass, and Snap Heap.
• On Windows, the GPU renderer now displays icons more quickly, improving the responsiveness in the browser, mixer, and Session views when expanded to a large size.

Move Control Surface

• When using Move in Control Live Mode, the parameter mappings of Auto Filter are now consistent with Standalone Mode.

Bugfixes

Live Bugfixes

• Fixed an issue where the content of the Clip View's editor would disappear when zooming in a non-playing clip with the + or - keys while Follow mode was active.
• Fixed a cut-off label that appeared in the Record, Warp & Launch Settings when using Live in French.
• Fixed a bug that caused an offset at the start of the recording when resampling audio.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when moving the insert marker with arrow keys while dragging a breakpoint with the mouse at the same time.
• Fixed an issue where the color entries were missing from the Arrangement clip context menu after renaming a clip.
• Sample rate, bit depth, and channel count are now displayed in the Clip View when multiple audio clips are selected, as expected.
• Fixed an issue where Collision's noise generator would randomly skip MIDI notes during playback when switching between Noise and Mallet.
• Fixed a bug where Analog would sometimes skip first note with the buffer size set to 32 samples.
• Live now correctly updates the color of the waveform in the Clip View when muting and unmuting an audio clip.
• Fixed a bug where Arrangement clips starting at 1.1.1 would sometimes fail to send a program change when starting playback immediately after loading a Set.
• Fixed MIDI program change for some VST3 plug-ins, including Korg M1, Sylenth1, and Viper.
• Fixed a crash that occurred while playing back audio clips.
• Fixed a bug where bouncing to a new track was not disabled when the Arrangement time selection contained only take lane clips.
• Tracks with a selection only containing take lane clips or muted Arrangement clips are now ignored when bouncing to a new track. Before this fix, this would have created empty tracks without any clips.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when zooming the Arrangement View via the Python API while renaming a locator.
• When Live is synced to a MIDI clock leader, the latency between the leader and Live is reduced and no longer changes with the tempo. While the fix results in a more stable latency, it may change timing in old Sets where Live was synced to an external MIDI clock source, so the -UseLegacyExtMidiClockIncrement option can be added to the Options.txt file to revert to the original behavior.
• Fixed an issue that occurred when bouncing a track with a delay or reverb effect, where the resulting effect tail clip of a clip that was followed by a muted clip before the bounce would have an incorrect length and and an incorrect name.
• Fixed an issue that occurred if an effect tails clip was overlapping a muted clip, where the tail clip would be split at the border of the muted clip.
• Fixed a bug where, in muted clips, a bounced clip and effect tail clip would be created if the track had a generator-like effect such as Vinyl Distortion.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when opening .ablbundle files when no User Library was configured.
• Fixed an issue in Drift where enabling the Mono and Oscillator Retrigger modes in Drift then playing a note and holding it while pressing another note would not change the pitch of the oscillators.
• Fixed a bug in Auto Filter where a new value for the SC Gain parameter value was not correctly saved when saving the changes as a new default preset.
• The LFO step quantizer in Auto Filter will now correctly take into account the LFO Phase and LFO Phase Offset parameter values when the values are changed during playback.
• Fixed a crash on macOS that occurred when attempting to open a Set with a removed alias file.
• Fixed a bug where the first file would be overwritten when exporting two tracks with the same name but different capitalization when using the Selected Tracks Only export option.
• Fixed an issue that caused graphical artifacts with automation curves that used a large number of breakpoints.
• Plug-in scanning and browser indexing is now faster on Windows.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when dragging corrupt MIDI files into Live.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when loading a Set containing MP3 files if the set cache folder was missing.
• When loading a Move or Note Set in Live, the Melodic Sampler instrument is converted to Simpler with the expected number of voices.
• Capture will no longer clear its buffer when notes are played over a playing clip and the transport is stopped. Previously, the buffer could be unintentionally cleared in some cases.
• Fixed a bug where changes to playing session clips were not reflected if the take lane audition switch was enabled for that track.
• On Windows, the GPU renderer no longer causes unexpected pauses longer than 100ms in certain scenarios, such as when displaying all automation envelopes in the Arrangement view.

Push Bugfixes

• Added a speculative fix for an issue that prevented Push 2 from starting after updating to Live 12.2 on Windows.

Original source Report a problem

Auto Filter Updates
Auto Filter has been redesigned, both in terms of the UI and sound.
The new device layout emphasizes key parameters and features improved visualizations. Filter frequency modulation is now displayed separately for the left and right channels. Additionally, a real-time signal spectrum for the output has been added to visualize how the parameters affect the output.
New Filter Types
Several new creative filter types have been added:

• The DJ filter controls both a low-pass and a high-pass filter with a single parameter, similar to certain DJ mixers. Values above zero filter out low frequencies and emphasize high frequencies, while values below zero filter out high frequencies and emphasize low frequencies.
• The Comb filter produces flanging effects, especially when modulated.
• The Vowel filter shapes the sound to resemble the human voice by emphasizing formants.
• The Morph filter now features four different slopes. Furthermore, it is now possible to morph between low-pass and high-pass filtering, with band-pass in between.
• A Resampling filter and a Notch + LP filter complete the new additions.
  Updated Filter Circuits
  The available filter circuits have changed:
• SVF functions as a linear/clean filter, but can also introduce distortion if Drive is set above zero.
• DFM is a new filter circuit that internally feeds back more of its distortion, resulting in a broad range of tones from subtle filter sweeps to warm drive.
• MS2 uses a Sallen-Key design and soft clipping to limit resonance. It is modeled on the filters used in a famous semi-modular Japanese monosynth.
• PRD uses a ladder design and has no explicit resonance limiting. It is modeled on the filters used in a legacy dual-oscillator monosynth from the United States.
  Modulation Improvements
• The list of available LFO shapes has been extended to include: Wander, Ramp Up, and Ramp Down.
• LFO Morph transforms and tilts the LFO shape in various ways.
• The S&H shape now has a dedicated smoothing parameter.
• LFO quantization can be applied in one of two modes:
  • In Steps mode, the LFO modulation only updates at specific intervals, which are defined by the current LFO speed divided by the selected number of steps.
  • In S&H mode, the LFO only updates based on the selected S&H beat time.
• In the Envelope Follower, the Envelope Attack Hold parameter ensures the envelope completes its full attack phase, even if the input signal consists only of short transients.
• The sidechain signal can be summed to mono via the Mono Sidechain option in the device title bar 27s context menu.
• An EQ has been added to the sidechain section.
  Improved Signal Flow
• A dedicated Output control allows you to compensate for increases in loudness, which is useful when using high Drive values.
• Enabling the Clip toggle applies soft clipping to ensure the output signal does not exceed 0 dB, which is especially useful when using high resonance and Drive values.
• The Dry/Wet control lets you balance the dry and processed signals.
  Automation and Modulation Keyboard Workflow
  You can now add, edit, and delete automation breakpoints using a new keyboard workflow. Breakpoints can be selected one at a time, making it possible to move between them and make edits using the keyboard or mouse. Screen reader announcements provide feedback for each action.
  Navigation

  Bounce Tracks to Audio
  Two new commands for bouncing tracks have been added: Bounce Track in Place and Bounce to New Track. You can use Bounce Track in Place to render entire tracks as new audio tracks, and Bounce to New Track to render the time selection of a track into a new audio clip on a separate track. Bouncing is performed pre-mixer and post-FX. This means the source track 27s effects processing is included in the rendered audio.
• The Bounce Track in Place command is available in the track title bar and clip context menus. The Bounce to New Track command is available in the clip context menu, as well as via the shortcut Ctrl B (Win) / Cmd B (Mac).
• When bouncing to a new track, the rendered audio clips are added to a separate track beneath the source track. After bouncing, the source clips are muted so that there is no doubled output.
• The Freeze and Flatten Track command and the Flatten command for frozen tracks have been renamed to Bounce Track in Place.
• Bounced files are stored in a new Samples/Processed/Bounce folder within the Project folder.
  Browser Improvements
  Filter View Redesign
  The browser's Filter View has been redesigned to better accommodate the recently added filtering and tagging features:
• The Filters title bar has been removed and replaced by a new toggle to the right of the search bar, which can be used to show or hide the Filter View.
• Added a Filter View Menu drop-down next to the Show/Hide Filter View toggle. This menu includes options to show or hide filter groups and the Tag Editor, enable auto tags, and open or close the new Quick Tags panel.
• The Browse Back and Browse Forward icons have been slightly updated.
  Browser Content Columns
  The Content Options menu in the content pane adds some new display options:
• You can customize which content columns are displayed, as well as reorder them in the content pane by dragging.
• The content list can be sorted by clicking on the column header.
• The new Show File Extensions option lets you show or hide all file extensions.
  Quick Tags
  The new Quick Tags panel, located above the Preview tab, lets you view assigned tags, as well as add or remove tags for selected browser items.
• User-created tags and auto tags include an X icon, which you can click to remove the tag from the selected item. Note that factory tags cannot be removed or edited.
• When multiple items are selected, any tags which are not assigned to all of the selected items are displayed with an asterisk.
• Double-clicking a tag in the Quick Tags panel opens the corresponding tag in the Tag Editor.
• Use the shortcut Ctrl E (Win) / Cmd E (Mac) when the browser is in focus to go directly to the Add5 field of the Quick Tags panel.
• The Quick Tags panel is displayed by default but can be hidden via the Show Quick Tags option in the Filter View Menu.
  Custom Icons
  It is now possible to assign custom icons to any label in Library, as well as any user folder in Places:
• Right-click on a label to choose a new icon from the predefined list of custom icons.
• Reset to the default icon by choosing 3Default Icon. 4
  Note that it is not possible to update the icons for the Packs, Cloud, Push, User Library, and Current Project labels.
  Search Bar Improvements
• The design of the tag suggestion popover that appears when searching for tags has been refined.
  Results Bar Improvements
• The Results bar now displays the number of selected filters.
• The Clear Filters and Add Label icons have been updated.
  New Filters
• The Content filter group now has a new MIDI Tool filter.
• Added a new filter group called MIDI Tools that contains Generator, Transformation, and Stacks filters.
• When filtering in the All label, presets are now grouped into their device folders.
  Device Improvements
  Meld
• Added a new Chord oscillator type, which is comprised of four sawtooth oscillators that play a variety of chords. When the Use Current Scale toggle is enabled in the device title bar, generated chords use the notes of the set scale. If no scale is set, a major scale is used with the incoming MIDI note as the root.
• Added a new Scrambler LFO 1 FX, which permutes four different amplitude ranges of the input modulator.
  Roar
• Added a new Delay routing mode. In this mode, the second stage processes the delayed signal from Stage 1. Unlike the Feedback routing mode, the delayed signal is sent to the second stage without being scaled by the feedback gain. This creates single (distorted) repetitions or slapbacks. The output of Stage 2 is fed back into itself and scaled with the feedback gain, enabling multiple repetitions and long signal tails. The Blend control can be used to mix between the output of Stage 1 and Stage 2.
• Added a new Dispersion filter type. This filter distorts the signal's phase in a frequency-dependent manner. This can lead to interesting metallic, spring-like artifacts, especially when modulated.
• Added an external sidechain that can be used to feed the envelope follower modulation source with signals from other chains or tracks.
• Added a MIDI sidechain that can be used to control the pitch of the feedback in Note mode.
• An Envelope Hold toggle is now available in the Envelope section. It ensures that the envelope completes its entire attack phase before entering the release phase.
• Modulation signals are now visualized using LEDs in the Modulation column. This helps identify how modulation sources are set up and whether they are active in any modulation routing 27without needing to dive into the Modulation Matrix.
• Enabling the MIDI > FB Note toggle now leads to MIDI input changing the pitch of the device's feedback irrespective of the Feedback Time Mode setting, making it easier to use Roar's MIDI sidechain feature.
  Resonators
• The Resonators device now supports scale awareness, which you can enable via the Use Current Scale toggle in the device title bar. When enabled, the Note and Pitch controls can be transposed in scale degrees.
• The Resonators device also now supports tuning systems. When a tuning system is loaded, the resonators' pitches can be adjusted based on the tuning's set of pitches, and the Note and Pitch controls use integers rather than note names or semitones.
  Spectral Resonator
• The Spectral Resonator device now supports scale awareness, which you can enable via the Use Current Scale toggle in the device title bar. When enabled, the Frequency control can be adjusted in scale degrees when using MIDI note values. When using MIDI Mode, the Transpose control can be set in scale degrees. You can also quantize the resonator's harmonics to the scale by enabling the Quantize option above the Spectrogram.
• The Spectral Resonator device also now supports tuning systems. When a tuning system is loaded, the Frequency control is set to the tuning's root note when using MIDI note values. Additionally, the control uses integers and not note names or scale degrees. As with scale awareness, you can enable the Quantize option to quantize the resonator's harmonics to the tuning's pitches.
  Operator
• Operator now supports a maximum voice count of 32 voices.
  Device Header Improvements
• The triangle toggle used for expanding a device 27s sidechain settings or breakout view is now only used for sidechain settings. A new arrow toggle is used for devices with a breakout view.
• The sidechain toggle has been moved to the left side of the device and now includes its own header for increased visibility. This change affects the Auto Filter, Compressor, Corpus, Gate, Glue Compressor, Multiband Dynamics, and Shifter devices. Additionally, the Sidechain Filter in Compressor is now accessible in its own panel.
• The context menu options for all devices are now accessible via a dedicated button in the device title bar; previously, these options were only available through right-clicking.
  Additional Device Improvements
• The Sample Start and End markers are now preserved when converting Simpler to Drum Sampler.
• In Drum Sampler, added the Envelope Follows Pitch option to the device title bar context menu. This option is enabled by default and ensures that the timing of the envelope follows the re-pitching of the sample so that the same portion of the sample is always played regardless of transposition changes.
• In Drum Sampler, the Hold parameter in Trigger mode now uses Inf as the maximum value, which plays the sample for its complete length.
• You can now enable Hi-Quality mode for Drift by selecting the option from the context menu in the device title bar.
• Updated the Core Library:
  • A new default preset is now used for Auto Filter.
  • Added a new selection of Auto Filter presets.
  • Auto Filter Legacy presets are now saved in: Core Library/Devices/Audio Effects/Legacy/Auto Filter Legacy
  • A new default preset is now used for Roar that has Envelope Hold enabled.
  • Corrected the tuning for the Upright Bass.adv preset.
  • Fixed the tuning for the Fretless Bass.adv preset.
  • Fixed some small typos in Audio Effect Racks presets.
  • Added new Meld presets that feature the Chord oscillator.
  • The Drum Sampler default preset and Drum Rack presets that use Drum Sampler now have Envelope Follows Pitch on by default.
    Max for Live Improvements
• Max for Live devices now feature an Edit in Max option in the device title bar context menu. This option replaces the functionality of the Edit button, which has been removed and replaced with an icon that signifies the device is a Max for Live device. You can restore the Edit button functionality by adding the -MaxForLiveDeveloperMode option to the Options.txt file.
• Updated the bundled Max version to the 9.0.7 official release build. Please see the Max 9.0.7 Release Notes for more details. The following Max for Live changes from Max 9.0.6 are also now available:
  • jspainter: live.button/menu/tab/toggle mapping overlay works
  • live.menu: popup menu icon drawing improvements
  • live.push: attributes work properly if no push is connected
  • live.text: button roundness matches Live appearance
  • Max Console: fixed potential crash in the context of Max for Live

  • Max for Live: Max's global zoom preference is not used inside Live
  • phasor~ in Max for Live: improved transport sync
  • v8: improved fix for LiveAPI observer callback issues
  • The Clip.start_time property is now observable in the Max for Live API.
• Max for Live can now access a device parameter's display_value through the LOM. Other than the existing value property, the display_value refers to the parameter's value as visible in the user interface.
• It is now possible to access a take lane's name through Max for Live.
• Take lanes can now be created through Max for Live.
• Clips in Take Lanes can now be accessed via the Max for Live API. Additionally, the create_audio_clip and create_midi_clip functions have been added to the API, making it possible to add clips to Take Lanes.
  Arrangement View Improvements
• Track headers now display a Show/Hide Take Lanes button when more than one take has been recorded on a given track or after choosing Insert Take Lane from a track 27s context menu. Note that in order to access the Show/Hide Take Lanes button, Automation Mode needs to be disabled and tracks need to be unfolded.
• Right-clicking on a track or take lane header now displays context menu options to:
  • Delete All Take Lanes
  • Delete Unused Take Lanes (i.e., take lanes containing clips that are not audible on the track 27s main lane)
• Adjusting the size of the browser or the application window now zooms the contents of the Arrangement View instead of pushing it outside of the visible area.
• Group Tracks with many nested tracks now take up less space in Arrangement View. The overview shown for Group Tracks is no longer fixed in size, but now zooms depending on the Group Track 27s size. Also, clips from tracks in nested sub-groups are no longer shown as individual lanes on the parent group, but are aggregated into a single lane per sub-group.
• The Add Automation Lane button is now hidden when a parameter already has an existing automation lane. This means the automation for a given parameter is no longer shown more than once in the Arrangement View. Selecting Show Automation or Show Automation in New Lane from the context menu of a device parameter now focuses the corresponding automation lane.
  Session View Improvements
• Scene Follow Actions can now be toggled between Unlinked and Longest. When set to Longest, the Follow Action is triggered at the end of the longest clip in the scene or after that clip has played the number of loops defined by the Follow Action Multiplier. When set to Unlinked, the Follow Action is triggered after the scene has played for the duration specified by the Follow Action Time.
• A linked scene follow action now displays the longest clip's loop length next to the multiplier. In case the longest clip is unlooped, "Clip End" is displayed to indicate that the action will be triggered once that clip reaches its end.
  Move Control Surface Updates
• In Note Mode, the playback position of the longest playing full-bar clip is now displayed when the transport is running and an empty clip is selected.
• A notification is now shown when steps are transposed.
• The LED feedback in loop mode is now consistent with Move standalone.
• The parameter mappings for Drift, Simpler, and Drum Sampler are now consistent with Move standalone.
• The auto-arming behavior is now more consistent with Push.
• Detail View is now always shown when steps are held down. Additionally, Detail View is always shown when navigating devices.

• Mute-related LEDs now indicate when tracks and drum pads have been muted via solo.
• Shift + Mute can now be used for soloing tracks and drum pads.
• Shift + Step 16 can now be used for quantizing drum pad notes.
• Steps can now be nudged finely while Shift is held.
• It is now possible to select a 4ths or Octaves layout for scales.
• When using Note Repeat, there should no longer be a dip in velocity shortly after a note is pressed.
• Modifier screens are now more responsive.
• Fixed a bug that caused momentary track muting to not complete correctly after releasing Mute.
• Fixed an issue where using modifiers (such as Mute) quickly could result in undesired actions being triggered.
• Fixed a bug where the scale and root note menus would not be initialized correctly when loading a set.
• Fixed a bug where some scales would not use all of the pad columns.
  Third-Party Control Surface Improvements
• Added control surface support for the Akai MPK Mini Plus.
• The arming behavior in newer control surfaces (such as the ones for the APC64 and Move) is now more consistent with the behavior in the Push control surface.
• When using the Launchkey MK3 and MK4 control surfaces, it is now possible to navigate between groups of eight tracks using the Track Left and Right buttons while Shift is held down. The first track in the group will also be selected.
• In newer control surfaces (such as the ones for the APC64 and Move), mute-related LEDs now indicate when tracks and drum pads have been muted via solo.
• In the Komplete Kontrol S Mk3 Control Surface, the play button now toggles playback.
• The play button of the Launchkey_MK3 and Launchkey_Mini_MK3 Control Surfaces no longer resets song time.
• In newer Control Surfaces (such as APC64), mute-related LEDs will now indicate when tracks and drum pads have been muted via solo. Additionally, the auto-arming behavior of newer Control Surfaces is now more consistent with Push.
• Detail View is now always shown when steps are held down via the Launchkey MK4, and Launchkey Mini MK4 Control Surfaces.
• The arm icon in the display of the KeyLab_mk3 Control Surface now uses different shades to better distinguish a track 27s arm state.
• With the Launchkey_MK3 and Launchkey_MK4 Control Surfaces, it is now possible to navigate between groups of eight tracks with the Track Left and Right buttons while Shift is held down. The first track in the group will also be selected.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when triggering "Slice to Drum Rack" while using the APC64 Control Surface.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when triggering "Slice to Drum Rack" while using the Launchkey MK4 Control Surface.
• Fixed a bug in the KeyLab Essential mk3 Control Surface where only one bank of parameters would be available for plug-ins regardless of how many parameters were configured.
  Additional Improvements
• On Windows, you can now enable a hardware-accelerated GPU renderer to significantly improve Live 27s UI performance. This option is disabled by default but can be enabled in the Display & Input section of Live's Settings.
• Live will now use less memory when loading large Sets.
• Selecting a tag from the auto-completion suggestions now works also when selecting the tag with the arrow keys.
• In the Transformation/Generator Selector, added an indicator that shows which of the MIDI Tools have been applied.
• It is now possible to specify the min and max values for enum parameters when they are remote controlled via macro or MIDI-mapping.

• The range of the Brightness parameter in the Themes and Colors Settings has been increased for all colors that make up a theme's background, whereas most chromatic colors (clip/track colors, button states, etc.) are now prevented from being affected.
• Live now supports setting MIDI program change events in VST3 plug-ins.
• A message is now displayed in Settings if the GPU cannot be toggled on or off, for example because the graphics card is not supported graphics card or the GPU renderer is forced on or off with an entry in the Options.txt file.
• Updated the What's New in Live lesson to include features from Live 12.2.
• Updated software text in various areas of Live.
• Updated various software text translations in French, German, Italian, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Spanish.
  Bugfixes
  Bugfixes
• When editing Stacks' parameters and chord patterns when the MIDI Tool is inactive (e.g. when the MIDI Note Editor is in the Envelopes view mode), the chord pattern diagram is now updated as expected.
• Fixed the following bugs in Arpeggiator:
  • Fixed an issue where a groove was not applied when Gate was set to values above 75% and below 100%.
  • Fixed a bug where the pattern would skip or repeat notes when the Arrangement timeline was looped.
• Accessibility: Restored the ability to extend selection to notes of the same pitch using the Ctrl (Win) / Option (Mac) + left or right arrow keys with a note selection in the MIDI Note Editor.

• Phaser-Flanger and Redux will now use less CPU when silent.
• A newly loaded Wavetable device with Retrigger set to off will now have LFOs synced to the transport.
• With Retrigger set to off, Wavetable's free LFOs will sound the same when restarting the transport at any point in the Set.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when navigating the Tags Editor with the arrow keys.
• The New Folder option is no longer shown in the context menu when the browser is showing a flat search result list.
• Fixed a bug where the Clear Envelope option would be erroneously displayed in the context menu of Clip View's buttons in some circumstances.

• In Meld, fixed an incorrect Push mapping on the Matrix bank to the Engine B Pressure modulation amount page when Engine A was selected.
• The Time Warp MIDI Tool now takes into account MPE events as expected.
• Fixed an issue where Live would freeze when loading or showing the Info View description of a tuning system with a descending pseudo-octave. An error will now be shown in this situation instead.
• It is now possible to apply tuning to MPE-capable plug-ins and Max for Live devices via a context menu in the plug-in/device header.
• When a tuning is loaded, MPE pitch bend is now tuned so that one step is one tuned step rather than one 12TET step.
• Fixed a bug that prevented some control surfaces from being automatically configured in Live 27s Settings.
• When recording a new Session clip and selecting a different clip while recording, Live would stop updating the visible time range in the clip. This had the effect that when stopping the recording and then displaying the clip again, Live would show the time range that was visible when showing the clip for the last time. This behavior is now fixed and Live shows the entire clip.
• Phase cancellation no longer depends on the song start time when two tracks are set up to be canceled via the Utility device's phase inversion buttons.
• Pressing the arrow down key in the search field now moves keyboard focus directly to the search results.

• Improved performance in the Plug-ins label when using the Group by Creator option.
• On macOS, fixed an issue where custom key mappings using the Option modifier would not work.
• Fixed an issue that occurred when using a custom tag in a Drum Rack, where unexpected devices would be displayed under the tag.
• In the Arpeggiate MIDI Tool, when generated notes would go over the note range, the resulting note is now folded down an octave also when scale is off, and works correctly with tuning systems as well.
• The Channel Configuration windows in the Audio Settings now follow the same zoom level as the rest of the UI.
• Fixed a bug where the Similar Files button remained visible after file analysis failed.
• The UI is no longer interrupted when the preference "Auto-Warp Long Samples" is set to On and a Live Set containing samples for which there is no .asd file is opened. This means that importing clips from an existing Set will no longer cause an interruption to the UI.
• Fixed an issue where the browser would shortly flicker, and then become empty, displaying the message "No Content" or "No Results".
• Creator tags for plug-ins used in group presets are not shown in the Filters view anymore.
• Fixed an issue where, when filtering for "Content|Preset" in a label grouping presets by device and then saving the results as a custom label, the resulting custom label showed no content.

• In the MIDI Note Editor, fixed a bug where some menu commands were not available after switching clips using the loop bar and then selecting a note in the Editor.
• Fixed an issue that occurred when navigating the timeline in the MIDI Note Editor with the keyboard, where clicking on the MIDI Note Editor Preview button would move keyboard focus from the timeline to the button.
• When exporting a video on Windows, the exported video frame rate will now match the frame rate chosen in the video export dialog as expected.
• Fixed an issue where, when hot-swapping a device, the browser would automatically scroll to the to the top of the content pane instead of moving to the device itself.
• Users can now search for multiple auto-completed tags in a row without needing to add a space between the tags.
• In Live's browser, switching between labels will no longer restore the previous position in the list if the search text has changed since last using the label. This includes similarity searches, as well as tag searches triggered from the search field.
• Collections are now visible and accessible from the Instruments, Audio Effects, and MIDI Effects labels again, as expected.
• Configuring sliders for plug-ins should now work as expected.
• Fixed a bug where switching to a Drum Rack clip and back to a non-Drum Rack clip would disable the Fold to Scale option.
• Fixed an issue that could potentially result in MIDI Tools corrupting note data.
• Fixed a bug where, for some actions performed via mapped keys, Undo would not revert individual value changes and as a consequence no individual entries would show up in the Undo History, since no individual Undo steps were created.
• When repeatedly triggering the same clip manually, e.g. by using Follow Actions or starting the clip's scene, Play One note groups are now correctly reevaluated and the same note no longer plays all the time.
• Fixed a crash that would occur when loading the "Faded Keys" Drift preset.
• Fixed the following issues with multi-clip editing:
  • Fixed a bug where extending note length with the keyboard would not update the time selection.
  • Fixed an issue where, when multiple notes were selected in the MIDI Note Editor the time selection would change to include only the recently clicked note.
• Fixed a bug where resizing track headers in the Session View in Sets that contained many scenes would cause Live to hang.
• The state of the Chain Auto Select setting is now stored in the Audio Effect Rack, Instrument Rack, and MIDI Effect Rack presets.
• Fixed an issue that could cause Live to hang when exporting audio for certain Sets.
• Fixed an issue where warp markers would not be displayed after undoing a delete action on a clip.

• Fixed a bug where MPE data was not sent correctly if the Arpeggiator or Note Length device was placed inside or after a MIDI Effects Rack device.
• Fixed a bug where instruments or plug-ins that apply MPE data relatively to the value at the start of a note would not receive per-note expression correctly for notes output from the Chord device if its Strum control was set to non-zero values.
• Fixed a bug where the Note Length and Arpeggiator devices would send superfluous MPE events.
• Selecting another element in Live's UI now deselects an automation breakpoint previously selected for keyboard editing with the Alt (Win) / Option (Mac) + mouse click combination as expected.
• Fixed a crash that occurred on shutdown in some cases.
• Fixed an issue where the automation value was displayed after undoing the action of moving a time selection in the Automation Mode while the "Move Selected Arrangement Clips with Arrow Keys" option is enabled. The value will now be displayed only for an empty time selection (i.e. insert marker), as expected.
• When dragging a clip to the browser and dropping it onto a folded item before it unfolds, the drop position outline now disappears immediately after completing the drag and drop action, as expected.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when switching audio devices under certain circumstances.
• Fixed an issue where scanning plug-ins at startup could cause Live to hang or freeze.
