We're thrilled to share that Ableton has joined TiME as a Corporate Member. Their commitment to music education and excellent resources will support the TiME community, helping more young people, educators, and emerging professionals develop their skills and creativity.

Ableton AG is a German music software company that created the legendary Ableton Live (software) and Ableton Push (hardware). Since its launch in 2001, Ableton Live has revolutionised music creation, performance, and production, becoming a staple in studios and live settings worldwide. In 2013, the company expanded its influence with the release of Push, a dedicated pad-based MIDI controller designed specifically to enhance the Live experience, offering hands-on control for producers and performers alike. With the release of Ableton Move, the innovation continues. Move is a standalone, portable, battery-powered device with a built-in processor, speaker, and microphone, featuring Live 12.1 Intro to offer a complete music-making solution for creatives on the go.

Features of Ableton Live include:

Blend electronic sounds, acoustic instruments and vocals in live performances
Sync drum loops with a live drummer to keep perfect timing in your performance
Trigger perfectly synced samples and audio clips on the fly
Easily time-stretch audio using the Warp function
Enhance your sound with a full array of effects like reverb, delay, and distortion
Cue tracks and use the cross-fade view like a DJ mixer
