Ableton Live 11 Suite v11.1 WiN

11.1 Release Notes
Please note there is no automatic software update for 11.1. Check out this article for information on manually updating Live.

New features and improvements:
Native Apple Silicon Support
•Live 11.1 adds native support for Apple M1 computers.

Arrangement View Improvements
•You can use the left arrow key to navigate from an automation lane or take lane to the main track, this will fold the lanes as well. You can also use the left arrow key to navigate from tracks in a group to the main Group Track.
•The Arrow Left/Right shortcut has been added to the Arrangement Track Title Bar info text. The shortcut folds/unfolds the track.
•The Arrow Left/Right shortcut has been added to the Toggle Additional Automation Lanes info text. The shortcut folds/unfolds additional automation lanes.

Browser
•A new Devices icon has been added to Live’s Browser:

•When viewing Sets in the browser, you will see a Devices icon for device chains on a track that contain at least one device.
•When you expand a Live Set in the browser, either from the Current Project folder, Templates folder, or a folder of Sets you have added in Places, you can unfold the tracks in the Set to reveal their device chains. These chains can then be moved into the current open Set using drag and drop or by double-clicking on the chain. The Device settings from the original Set are retained but any previously recorded automation is not.

Capture MIDI
•In the first captured MIDI clip (in an empty set with the transport stopped), if the detected loop is eight bars or less, the first played note is considered the start of the loop.
•When only one note is played in the first captured MIDI clip (in an empty set with the transport stopped), the loop boundaries are set to the note start and end, and the tempo is accordingly calculated, resulting in a one, two, four, or eight bar loop. This is particularly useful when playing a rhythmical sample with a single MIDI note.
•In Session View, new captured clips now use the “Adaptive Grid: Narrow” setting instead of “Fixed Grid: 1/16.”

Clip View
•Added responsive Clip View options:
•In Clip View, all clip properties are now displayed in panels/tabs instead of separate panels. Clip View properties can be arranged vertically by moving the mouse cursor to the left from the Clip View panel edge next to the Sample Editor/MIDI Note Editor.
•Clip View properties can also be arranged automatically, which switches between the horizontal and vertical views depending on the height of the Clip View area. Select “Arrange Clip View Panels Automatically” from the View menu to enable this option.
•When Clip View panels are arranged vertically, the individual tabs (e.g. Clip, Audio, Envelopes, etc) can be collapsed and expanded using the arrow icon to the right of the tab header.
•When Clip View panels are arranged vertically, the individual tabs (e.g. Clip, Audio, Envelopes, etc) can be folded/unfolded using the Arrow Left/Right keys.
•Sample information for audio clips (e.g. sample name, sample rate, etc) is also displayed in the Clip View and appears differently in the vertical/horizontal view modes.
•Clip View panels can now be accessed using keyboard shortcuts. In MIDI clips, ALT + 1 switches to the Notes panel, ALT + 2 switches to the Envelopes panel, and ALT + 3 switches to the Note Expression panel. In audio clips, ALT + 1 switches to the Audio panel and ALT + 2 switches to the Envelopes panel.
•Clip View can be toggled to its maximum height using the keyboard shortcut CTRL+ALT+E (Win) / CMD+OPT+E (Mac) or the View menu entry “Expand Clip Detail View.”
•The chosen Responsive Clip View mode is now saved in Live’s Preferences.cfg file.
•When multiple audio clips are selected, the sample properties (sample rate, bit depth, and channel count) for all samples will be displayed in the Clip View. If a value is not the same for all samples, the character “*” will be displayed. In Clip View, you will also see the total number of samples selected.
•The Pitch dial is now smaller and the Gain slider has been enlarged.
•When switching between panels in Clip View using the keyboard shortcuts ALT + 1/2/3, the panel header that was switched to will be selected.
•If Clip View is arranged horizontally when Live is first opened and either the Audio or Notes tab is selected, the corresponding panels in both audio and MIDI clips will remain unfolded when switching to Clip View’s vertical arrangement.

Comping
•You can now duplicate selected take lanes using the keyboard shortcuts CMD + D (Mac) / CTRL + D (Win), or by right-clicking on the take lane header and selecting “Duplicate.”
•Changing the color of a clip in a take lane changes the color of the corresponding clip in the track’s main lane and vice versa. Splits are created on the updated clips in certain cases when the relation between other highlights on different clips change.
•The horizontal lines that separate multiple take lanes match the color of the clips that are in those lanes.
•When renaming multiple tracks or take lanes using the context menu option, you will see the edit field when you right-click on a track or take lane.

Control Surfaces
•When navigating between devices on a selected track with the PreSonus ATOM SQ, you can now scroll between devices by holding the navigation buttons down.
•If an invalid CC, note, or channel value is used in a UserConfiguration.txt file, the associated User Remote Script can still be loaded.

Core Library
•Frequency Shifter presets are still available in Core Library/Devices/Audio Effects/Legacy/Frequency Shifter

CPU Meter
•The CPU meter drop-down menu now can be customized to display:
•both the Average or Current CPU usage levels
•only the Average level, with the Current level switched off
•only the Current level, with the Average level switched off
•Alternatively, the CPU meter can also be switched off entirely.
•By default, Live will not display the Current level; it must be enabled from the drop-down menu.

Interface
•You can use the left and right arrow keys to switch between radio buttons anywhere in Live. If you are switching between radio buttons on a device that is inside of a Rack with the left and right arrow keys, you can get back to moving between devices in the Rack using the left and right arrow keys by hitting the ESC key.
•In Session and Arrangement View, the Monitor radio buttons now have a default state that can be restored. When the In/Out section is expanded, you can press the Delete key to reset the Monitor radio buttons to the default (“Off” for audio tracks and “Auto” for MIDI tracks). This option is also accessible via the Edit menu option “Return to Default.”
•The Quantize Settings dialog buttons in the MIDI Note Editor now say “Apply” and “Close” instead of “OK” and “Cancel.”
•Deactivated device title bars are easily readable in all Live Themes, even if the device is selected.
•On Mac, the mouse cursor will now display an arrow pointing in a single direction when hovering over split views which can be resized in one direction only.
•An error message will be displayed in the status bar if an auto-update cannot be downloaded.
•Added a new "MIDI Envelope Auto-Reset" entry to the Options menu:
•When enabled, certain MIDI control message types that are not automated for a given clip will automatically reset at the start of a new clip.
•Note: for users who intentionally work opposite to this behavior, enabling this change will make corresponding Live Sets behave differently.
•In Live 11.0.5, "MIDI Envelope Auto-Reset" is disabled by default.
•In Live 11.1, "MIDI Envelope Auto-Reset" is enabled by default for new Sets, and disabled by default in older Sets.
•Updated various info texts.
•Updated some Help View lessons.
•Added support for keyboard shortcuts on French keyboard layouts for macOS versions 10.14 and older. Keyboard shortcuts that have numbers can be accessed without having to press Shift to access the number keys.

Max for Live
•Updated the bundled Max build to version 8.2.1.
•Link functions have been added to the Max for Live API.
•You can access the IDs of newly created notes using the Python API or the Max for Live API.
•It is possible to get a dictionary of all the notes in a MIDI clip using the Python API or Max for Live.
•It is now possible to call select_notes_by_id on a Clip object in Max for Live, passing a list of note IDs. This will select only those notes that have the provided IDs.
•Users can now get and observe the average_process_usage, peak_process_usage, and a track's performance_impact via Max for Live.
•When Max fails to load, an error message will be displayed that contains a link to a Knowledge Base article that explains potential causes for the issue and steps to take to resolve it.
•Error reporting in the Max Window is more consistent.
•Four new theme colors are available in Max for Live.
•amxd~: ‘realtime_params’ attr for realtime report of parameter data from outlets
•Dynamic Colors: ability to use a name which references a dynamic color (follows Live or Max color Themes)
•live.adsr~ / live.adsrui: new objects

MPE
•Added an MPE Settings dialog box to the I/O section of Live’s mixer. You can use the settings to:
•configure the MPE zone and range of note channels used by Live when sending MPE to an external MIDI device or plug-in
•select the upper or lower zone and number of note channels
•select multi-channel mode, which sets an arbitrary range of note channels
•The above MPE settings can be used for hardware synths that require a specific MPE configuration, or plug-ins that do not officially support MPE but can be used with MPE controllers due to their multi-timbral support.

Multi-Clip Editing
•Time selection interactions, note selection interactions, and new note editing options have been added to multi-clip editing:
•Time in the MIDI Note Editor can be selected across loop and clip boundaries.
•Note editing (e.g. copy, cut, paste, delete) can be used when working with note selections across clips and loop boundaries.
•Notes can be cut or copied from multiple clips and inserted into the same set of clips, as long as the clip selection/foreground clip has not changed, or into a different clip once that new clip has been selected.
•Selected loop bars can now be duplicated using the context menu or the CMD + D (Mac) / CTRL + D (Win) keyboard shortcuts.
•In Arrangement View, it is possible to draw notes in background clips without first changing the foreground clip. Notes can also be drawn continually across clip boundaries, except in Focus Mode.
•When using a pen to draw notes with "Draw Notes with Pitch Lock" enabled, any notes that cross a loop boundary are no longer deleted.
•When more than 64 clips or eight tracks are selected in Arrangement View, the MIDI Note Editor is no longer available for multi-clip editing to prevent potential performance issues.

New Devices and Device Improvements
•Introduced "Shifter", a new audio effect in Live Standard and Suite. Shifter is a multi-purpose audio effect for pitch shifting, frequency shifting, and ring modulation. The pitch or frequency of incoming audio can be tuned using Coarse or Fine parameters and further adjusted with a Tone filter and Window parameter. Shifter also has Delay, LFO, and Envelope Follower sections for additional modulation. The Shifter device can set pitch or frequency using its own parameters or by incoming MIDI notes.
•Introduced the Align Delay device, which is now included in the set of Max for Live devices that come with a Suite license, or a Standard plus Max for Live license. Align Delay is a Max for Live device that delays incoming signals by samples, milliseconds, or meters/feet.
•Introduced the Shaper MIDI device, which is now included in the set of Max for Live devices that come with a Suite license, or a Standard plus Max for Live license. Shaper MIDI is a Max for Live MIDI device that uses multi-breakpoint envelopes to generate mappable modulation data.
•The Cytomic Filters, which are used in the Wavetable, Echo, Simpler, Sampler, Operator, and Auto Filter devices, have been updated and improved in stability, sound and performance. As of 11.1, the Cytomic filters (particularly the MS2 and SMP options) might deviate in sound compared to previous Live versions, especially when driven hard.
•An update to the Softtube libraries may cause subtle sound changes in the Amp and Cabinet audio effects.
•In the Sampler, Wavetable, Impulse, Simpler, Channel EQ, Hybrid Reverb, Chorus-Ensemble, Phaser-Flanger, Echo (output knob only), Spectral Resonator (input send only) devices, Gain controls now increment/decrement consistently by 1 dB when pressing the up/down arrow key, or by 0.1 dB when pressing the [Shift] key.

Spectral Time:
•The effect order can now be reversed using two radio buttons “Frz > Dly” or “Dly > Frz” on the right panel of the Spectral Time device above the Dry/Wet knob.
•A “Zero Dry Signal Latency” option has been added to the context menu in the Spectral Time device. Enabling it reduces the latency of the dry signal to zero instead of syncing it with the output of the effect. This option is useful when playing a live instrument through Spectral Time and monitoring the output.
•Spectral Resonator:
•In the Spectral Resonator device, the Shift parameter will now increment/decrement by one semitone when pressing the up or down arrow keys, or by one octave when holding the Shift key.

Wavetable:
•A context menu option for Hi-Quality mode has been added to the Wavetable device. When Hi-Quality is off, Wavetable modulation is calculated every 32 samples. Low-power versions of the Cytomic filters are also used to further reduce CPU. Using Wavetable with Hi-Quality mode off can save up to 25% CPU compared to having it enabled, which is ideal for working with large sets or maintaining low latencies. Please note that as of 11.1, Hi-Quality mode will be off by default when loading a new instance of Wavetable or any of its Core Library presets. However, any user presets or Live Sets created previously will still load Wavetable in Hi-Quality mode to ensure sound consistency with earlier Live versions. Subtle sound differences may occur when Hi-Quality mode is enabled.

Packs

Push Device Visualization
•On Push 2, the Hybrid Reverb parameter banks Algorithm 1 and Algorithm 2 have been renamed to Algorithm Pg 1 and Algorithm Pg 2. Also some parameters for Hybrid Reverb on Push 2 have been rearranged for easier navigation.
•Updated some parameter names for the Chorus-Ensemble device on Push 2.
•The Saw Up and Saw Down icons for Sampler’s LFO waveforms on Push 2 now appear as expected.

Session View Improvements
•Using the left and right arrow keys to navigate the Session View no longer skips return tracks, if they are visible.
•Multi-selecting scenes now behaves the same as multi-selecting clip slots.
•Selecting scenes no longer highlights the Master track, instead the scene itself is highlighted.
•Navigating from the last clip slot to a scene with the right arrow key will highlight the Master track.
•You can click on a scene number or the Master track header to access the Master track and Scene View panel.

Setup
•To avoid incompatibilities, you will be asked to save Live Sets created with an older version of Live as a new file in Live 11.1.
•In Live’s Preferences, file paths that are unavailable (e.g. if an external drive is not connected) display a “(not available)” message. Paths that haven’t been set yet display a “(not set)” message.

Bugfixes:
