Live 12.3 is here – see what’s new and save 25%

Ableton Live 12.3 is here. All Live 12 users can update now for free to explore the latest features: including Stem Separation in Live Suite, Splice integration, Bounce Groups and Paste Bounced Audio, the new Auto Pan-Tremolo, and more. The update also brings major new expressive features for Push, plus new drum racks and a new device for Move.

With up to 25% off Live, Push and Move until December 2, now’s the time to save on tools that keep getting better with every update – and join a community of music makers continuously exploring and sharing new ways to use them. 

Watch the video below for a full rundown of Live’s new features, and see what ideas they spark for your music:

With Stem Separation in Live 12 Suite, you can instantly split vocals, drums, and bass from any audio clip. Pull a track apart to reveal its raw materials – and reshape them into something completely new.

Splice integration now brings Splice directly into Live’s Browser. Audition samples from Splice’s library in sync and in key with your Set without ever switching windows – plus, try the new Search with Sound feature to find samples that gel with your existing elements.

For faster ways to resample, create transitional effects, micro-edits and more, you can now bounce entire groups in place or to a new audio track – or use Paste Bounced Audio to quickly print and create variations on your ideas without breaking your flow. 

The updated Auto Pan-Tremolo device adds easier access to tremolo effects, plus deeper modulation and rhythmic control, and the new Device A/B feature lets you compare mixing tweaks or sound design choices instantly.

Generators by Iftah is a new Pack of intuitive MIDI Tools available to Live 12 Suite users and Live 12 Standard users with Max for Live. It includes Sting, adapted from the well-loved acid bassline pattern generator, and Patterns, which offers quick ways to spark new percussive rhythms.

The Sequencers Pack, introduced in Live 12.1, now supports reproducible arrangements, while Live 12.2’s Expressive Chords device adds a Chord Edit mode – letting you transpose selected chords or enter your own using the Learn function.

What’s new for Push? 

With the new XYZ layout, part of Push’s pad grid becomes a control surface for movement and expression – slide to shape effects and instruments, press for punch-in effects, and play as you go. Use the new Rhythm Generator to strike up percussive ideas, then humanize them instantly with touch-sensitive step editing. 

For even more flexibility as a creative hub, Push Standalone now also lets you split stems, and supports class-compliant audio interfaces for expanded recording and performance setups.

What’s new in Move 1.8?

Move 1.8 adds Live’s new Auto Pan-Tremolo effect and a range of presets – perfect for bringing new rhythmic movement to individual sounds, or anything from a subtle sense of groove to momentary chaos on the Main output. The update also includes two new hybrid Drum Kits with a hyperpop edge – provided exclusively by Kučka. 

Move keeps evolving with frequent free updates — and 1.8 builds on recent additions like sample slicing, reverse, and full access to the Drift synthesizer.
