- Installation
- This is one of the easiest programs out of the box I've used. It's about as straightforward of a production software as anyone could ask for. It's compatible with a lot of things and while it might not be the studio giant that Pro Tools or Cubase is, it's really not intended for that. It's really a musician's app. The manual is good but there are tons of tutorials online for every use of ableton.
- Performance
- Ableton can do a lot of things. I use it in live situations for triggering loops and minor synth use. I use the novation launchpad along with an axiom keyboard. Basically, I use the sets in ableton as songs and use the launchpad to trigger them. I also have a couple of live synths running which I use the axiom to play.
Performance is bulletproof. Ableton is the most stable program I've ever used. It simply won't crash. And believe me, I've tried. It plays well with everything. Even VST's. I've used it for a few years now. The introduction of the launchpad made things a lot easier for me because I was simply using a mouse before, which takes too long. - Gesamteindruck
- The forte of this program is that it's lightweight, flexible, fast, and effective. It's not trying to be a fancy recording suite, although if you so desire it can do a surprising amount in that regard. In a live situation it has no equal. For looping and lightweight synth/beats it's really a no brainer. It's probably best meant to be used by bands or musicians who are producers second and stage guys first. While I consider myself both, I like the fact that I can teach someone to use ableton in a few hours, which I've done many times. It's also just a good value in general. I recommend getting the suite. The extras are worth it.

- Ableton live, one of the fastest growing Programs for electronic music in our world.And i am not complaining.
I have has no compatibility issues running this on my 32 bit AND 64 bit versions of my ACER laptops, though both are pretty well powerful running dual 2.5ghz processors with 4gb RAM.
Though im sure it doesnt take a lot to run this program, the stronger the better, right?
I still to this date have not once used the manual as i seem to be the more try and test everything for yourself type of person though i have found a ton of insightful videos on youtube for ableton live.
Accessing all the effects/samplers/synths/whatever else you want is as easy as looking to your left hand side, dropping down an options tab and double clicking what you want.
Simple, Right?
Setup is just like any other DAW really, select your input output source and your off to explore the world of music! - Performance
- I find this program works brilliant on the performance side of things, Its fast barely/never crashes and if it does its normal due to a massive amount of powerful 3rd party plugins (izotope, korg synths).
The provided sounds/istruments/synths i rarely use as ableton had headed itself more towards the electro/dubstep style of music and for use in a live situation, though i have added all my vsts in to this to use s solely a DAW just because i love the simplicity and feel/look of it.
I have been using this program solely for my home studio for about 7 months and i plan on continuing this until i find something i like better or until i upgrade my studio.
Also just to let you all know my main style of recording is hardcore/metal/(whatever-word-here)core style genres and ableton allows me to produce some nice sounding tracks. - Gesamteindruck
- I like how easy MIDI editing and sampling is in ableton, i genreally create songs using guitar pro 5 so i just import the MIDI files in choose a sound and im done.
then if i wish to edit anything its all at a touch of a button!
Also as i got this program for free as a promotion from my local store i have no problems!
I have used many DAWs in my short time as a engineer and i dont know what it is about ableton that i like so much. its easier then small time programs such as adobe audition, logic but not as complex as say pro tools!
