Ableton updates Live to v11.3 - Adds Drift Synth and more

Ableton has released Live 11.3 (actually version 11.3.2).

Highlights of this release include:

• Drift – a new synth for all editions of Live 11:
  • Drift is an all-new MPE-capable synth and the first for all editions of Live – including Live Lite. Drift is a characterful device capable of a wide variety of sounds from every era of modern music.
  • Its minimal layout and interactive controls make adjusting the sound easy for musicians new to synthesis, while the sounds it can produce will give even experienced sound designers a broader sonic palette.
  • Inspired by classic hardware but borrowing heavily from modern synths and Eurorack modules, Drift has been carefully tuned by ear to deliver great sound at any setting, quickly and easily.
• Improved auto-warping:
  • Now, imported audio files are warped with more accuracy. This means you'll spend less time manually adjusting warp settings and be able to make adjustments more easily when you do.
• More MPE-capable instruments:
  • This update adds MPE capability to Analog, Collision, Electric and Tension, giving you more options when you want to add more expressive control to your music.
• More expressive control of your music:
  • The MPE Control device now has added functionality, an updated UI and reduced CPU load.
  • Note Echo now supports MPE with feedback controls for each dimension. This offers a creative way for MPE modulation to change over time.
  • An updated Core Library with expressive content is available in 11.3.
• Full Push functionality:
  • Live 11.3 delivers full functionality to the new Push 3 hardware. Owners of a Push with a processor installed will be prompted to update to the latest version of Live from the Push start menu.
