This is from Tim’s sister Anna. Tim’s cancer treatment and knock-on collapse of his business Endlesss have plunged his family into crisis. I’ve started a Gofundme for them gofund.me/15bf38ef. Donations and retweets are hugely appreciated ❤️🙏

Explore the various tunings that come with Live 12, and even make your own with our new free site: tuning.ableton.com
Dennis DeSantis retweeted
Really cool site by @Ableton lets you play around with different musical tuning systems. tuning.ableton.com I especially like this sonic code editor! 🎵 #musedchat
Dennis DeSantis retweeted
A fun way to explore tuning.ableton.com: Start some drones using the editor, and then noodle on pads to listen for beating patterns and interesting intervals. Here's an example with a 7-EDO system.
To accompany the new tuning features in @ableton Live 12, we've created a companion website - tuning.ableton.com/ - that lets you explore Live's tuning presets, and even make your own.

Ableton Live 12 will be released on March 5. Get it for free when you buy Live 11 now at 20% off – then get ready for playful new MIDI Tools, a more intuitive interface, and devices designed for the unexpected.
Shop now: ableton.com/en/shop/live/
Updated device: Note Triggered Modulator 1.2. The min and max controls are now mapping targets and can be automated. maxforlive.com/library/devic…
Selection Filter 2 has been updated. I fixed a bug that caused the focus to jump to the detail view when selecting a clip. "Show Clip After Running" is now off by default; note that turning it on will causes this behavior again. maxforlive.com/library/devic…
A slightly more involved YouTube video, in which I make a simplified clone of Live's Chord MIDI effect in Max for Live. youtu.be/CFA3lFMHq0w?si=r5Ol…
It's that time of year again - the holidays. The music producers on your shopping list could use a stylish book like this one. makingmusic.ableton.com/
Made a YouTube video about making your first Max for Live device in 30 seconds (or 30 years). youtu.be/3koRV6En3uM?si=zL47…

FYI @Ableton has an incredible resource for understanding synths. learningsynths.ableton.com It is quite literally an audio/visual hands on dive on what the different components are. Absolute best resouce if you are looking to learn
Contributing to the notation discourse with this video, which is sort of about notation but also about getting at the music another way. youtu.be/t0T5qhdoWtU?si=wFqD…
