New version of Max, v9.1, just released and comes with more ABL objects, ie more parts of Live's synths and effects, including what seems to be the drum sampler and Meld's filter and oscillator. No doubt this will go in 12.3 soon, and turn up in devices not long after.

Just picked this up.
Fantastic sequencer. A bit tricky to get your head around but it's super deep and really powerful.

LF-ARP: LFO MIDI Sequencer for Ableton Live (Max for Live) : LF-ARP is a powerful Max for Live MIDI effect designed to transform your static notes into modulated and dynamic arpeggios. It uses an LFO to generate melodic variations applied directly to the incoming MIDI notes.

so, new version of this device.. the VST3/AU version adds a full modulation system which he shows at the end of the video. those modulators are also standalone max for live devices available on his store.

It refuses description, allowing only the vague approach of adjectives: dark, light, raw, angelic. Who or what is making these noises? Where are they coming from and what do they point to? What kind of entity can leave such a troubling sonic remnant?

Interesting move for softube. Dont fancy buying them all over again, though.

Indeed an interesting move of Softube. Wonder if other developers will follow. It's great not to need an iLok but I appreciate way more the deep integration with Live (and Push) that comes with this kind of device. Even more interesting: It seems that those device are running on Push Standalone; at least the marketing is suggesting that:
A collaboration between Softube and Ableton, offering users the quality and prestige of Softube’s industry-standard DSP, to Live and Push.

I took advantage of the BF sale and updated from 11 to 12. Oh my! Crashes left and right. AUs are using 50-100% more cpu for the same patch on 12 vs. 11. A major step backwards. Is there a refund window?

What's the advantage of this over the same Softube plugins? Discounted for the same licenses?

I have an Intel Macbook Pro. Korg synths, Dune 3, and Diva all use notably more CPU with 12 vs.11. Serum 2 is better by about 15% with 12 though.
I requested a refund/license withdrawal from Ableton. I don’t want to wait for a promise of a fix.
