In this tutorial, Dubspot instructor and course designer Evan Sutton shares some of the new and improved MIDI editing tools in Ableton Live 9, including new controls that let you reverse, stretch, transpose, speed up or slow down MIDI notes!
The new MIDI editing tools included in Ableton Live 9 offer us handy ways to modify and reinvent the harmonic and rhythmic content of any MIDI clip, whether it’s a melody, chord progression or drum pattern. These new MIDI editing features are a welcome addition, as programs such as Logic and Cubase have had similar features for quite a while now. They truly help an Ableton Live user take lemons and make lemonade! –
