Get a huge taste of what Live 7 has to offer the computer musician and DJ with this LE version.
Ableton Live 7 LE gives you an intuitive interface and pro features for recording, songwriting, remixing, and DJing such as the ability to work with 64 audio tracks and unlimited MIDI tracks per project. It also features more than 20 built-in audio effects, two software instruments, Simpler for sample-based synthesis, and Impulse for drum sampling, and allows real-time time-stretching and warping of multiple formats. Live 7 LE offers two main views - the Session View and the Arrangement View - that interact in a powerful and unique way, allowing you to create, produce and perform your music all in a single application. Here is the principle behind each view:
Session View
Live's Session View acts as a musical sketch and launch pad, encouraging you to try out new ideas and improvise freely. Each cell in the Session View grid can hold a loop, recording, MIDI file, complete song, or any other musical element. These ideas can be recorded on the fly or dragged in from the Browser, combined and played in any order you wish.
Arrangement View
The Arrangement View offers a timeline-based approach for traditional recording, MIDI sequencing, arranging, editing, and other musical production tasks. When you improvise in the Session View, all of your actions can be recorded into the Arrangement View, where they can be edited and perfected whenever you like.
