Ableton Live is a versatile DAW that can be used for every stage of music production, from creating tracks and albums to programming live sets and designing sounds. Within Ableton Live, you can use Max, a legacy program from computer music pioneers. Max turbocharges Ableton, allowing you to create custom plug-ins for your projects.
