Ableton 12 released today and I saw a couple of people curious whether it’s worth trying. I’ve been testing it for a while and my main takeaway from it is that it’s for the most part a joy to use. The workflow is quite unique, because you’re essentially assembling different sections of your song that you can play live (hence the name) before committing to a more typical timeline, and I personally found this actually got me making way more musical output than before. You also get a lot of very interesting and varied sounds and patches to work with, and 95% of the built-in devices are accessible (with the exception of the ones based on Max4Live which is kind of like the JS effects in Reaper). There is also currently no way to edit automation like you can in Reaper or Logic, which is probably its biggest limitation right now but will most likely be fixed in a future update. But yeah, if you’ve been wondering if it’s worth trying, absolutely. It’s amazing how it went from completely inaccessible to the state it’s in now even if there are some things left to do. There’s also already some accessibility resources on this page help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/arti…
