Программа Ableton Live - смена всевозможным попыткам сделать самую ди-джейскую программу. Что только не делали: объединяли два WinAmp`a, коммутировали все устройства на РС… А все оказалось достаточно проще — музыканты сами взялись программировать. И нужно сказать, весьма успешно: за три года работы пройти в номинанты TEC Awards — это суперуспех. Компания Ableton состоит из музыкантов, программистов и менеджеров, которые собрались вместе для того, чтобы создавать и продвигать музыкальное ПО нового поколения. Музыканты, работающие в фирме, довольно опытные, и программы писались просто под их нужды. Компания была основана в 1999 году в Берлине на базе компьютерного музыкального проекта Monolake, который в свою очередь еще с 1995-го начал писать программы в своем видении современного звука. И это, кстати сказать, очень интересный момент, потому как гитарист видит музыку по-своему, а ди-джей — по-своему, и объединять все их интересы в какой-нибудь Cakewalk неразумно.
