Ableton 111/18/2024 ![]() ![]() Once key and scale have been selected, newly created MIDI Clips adopt it automatically – as does Push – and vice versa –leading to a far more deeply integrated workflow.īetter yet, the Draw tool, when held and dragged, now adds new notes on different keys as you move it up and down, rather than being relegated to the key first clicked. Click the Scale toggle to the right of the familiar Fold toggle above the piano roll to eliminate all keys outside the Scale – alowing you to safely enter notes strictly within that scale. By default, all piano keys contained in the selected scale are transparently highlighted with the same color of the Clip in the Note Editor, while excluded keys remain grey. Select a Key and Scale from their respective drop-downs in a MIDI Clip’s settings, then toggle the Scale button on to activate it. PIC 10: E Minor Scale selected, with notes in the Key hinted in the Note Editor.įirst, rejoice: Scales have finally been implemented directly in MIDI Clips. Incremental produces a new subsequent value, at an adjustable step size, with each new MIDI note, useful for gradually changing parameters with each note trigger assigning this to the Zone Selector of a properly configured Sampler could, for example, produce classic “round-robin” results as it progressively cycles through selected samples Random generates a randomized value on each new MIDI note, which can again be mapped to anything in your set, generating new possibilities for musical interactivity within a project. Better still, Expression Control now features new MIDI In sources: Random and Incremental. While there’s a dedicated new Max for Live MPE Control device included to help shape the response curve of selected MPE parameters, the new Expression Control has an adjustable Curve for eligible parameter mappings as well. MPE parameters are selectable as input sources from a drop-down menu, six of which can then be mapped to any parameter of any device anywhere in your set for incredibly powerful sonic manipulation baked directly into MIDI Expression programming. If you want to use MPE input from enabled controllers or as programmed into a Clip’s Expression tab on devices other than Wavetable, Sampler, or Arpeggiator, Live’s revamped Expression Control Max for Live device has got you covered. PIC 8: Mapping Slide and Pressure in opposite directions on each Oscillator for dynamic expressivity in Wavetable’s dedicated MPE matrix tab. If you don’t have an MPE-enabled controller, not to worry: you can still make extensive use of this powerful new functionality by manually editing MIDI Clips in the new Expression editor view, which can be accessed by clicking a MIDI Clip’s right-most tab (with the V-shaped automation symbol), or by using the Option + 3 hot key combination. Allowing for multidimensional playability of supported instruments via MPE-enabled controllers such as the Roli product line, even the most delicate adjustment of finger pressure can produce musically noticeable articulations. MPE For The PeopleĪnother headline feature of 11 is the integration of MIDI Polyphonic Expression, or MPE. The expansive possibilities of this evolved approach to comping is sure to make waves among beat makers, studio producers, and sound designers alike. ![]() Everything from hocketed bass monstrosities and Frankenstein drum loops to manic, multi-singer vocal chops or MIDI flourishes recorded by multiple players can be spliced together with just a few clicks. PIC 5: Comping multiple different drum loops dragged to Take Lanes.Ĭreating wildly unusual combinations of otherwise unrelated material has never been easier.
