Ableton has announced the much-anticipated next version of Live, the company's software for music creation and performance. Live 10 introduces four new Devices, a completely re-designed sound library, workflow-accelerating refinements and more. Improvements to Push allow more of the music creation process to happen away from the computer and a fully-integrated Max for Live means unlimited potential comes built into Live.

LAUNCH CONTROL DEMO VIDEO WITH CHRIS FROM NOVATION
Posted on March 20, 2014 by Joe Stachowiak
We were recently joined by Chris from Novation, who gave us an in-depth demonstration of the Novation Launch Control. Check it out in the video below.
The Launch Control is a compact MIDI controller, which is designed to work with software such as Ableton and FL Studio. It features 16 assignable dials and 8 launchpads, allowing you to launch clips, toggle effects, control your mixer and get hands-on with your instruments and effects. Although the Launch Control can work as a standalone piece of kit (if connected to your computer), it is also the perfect partner for any Launchpad, allowing you to expand the hands-on experience for more intricate performances.

LORDE'S KEYBOARD PLAYER CHOOSES NOVATION
Posted on February 10, 2014 by Joe Stachowiak
New Zealand singer-songwriter, Lorde, is an artist that you're likely to have heard of, having, at the age of just 16, already enjoyed chart-topping success in the UK, US and Australia with her single, 'Royals'. She's also got two Grammy Awards under her belt for Best Pop Solo Performance and Song of the Year. Not bad at all!
In this interview, Novation caught up with Lorde's keys player, Jimmy Mac, to find out why he trusts an Impulse controller keyboard for the band's live shows.
