Free Download Ableton 12 for Windows. Ableton Live, also known as Live or sometimes colloquially as, is a digital audio workstation for Windows developed by the German company Ableton.
Unlike many other software sequencers, Live is designed to be a tool for live performance, as well as a tool for composing, recording, arranging, mixing, and mastering. It is also used by DJs as it offers a set of controls for beat matching, crossfading, and other various effects used by turntables, and was one of the first music apps to automatically match the beats of songs.
Live is available directly within Ableton in three editions: Intro (with a limited number of key features), Standard, and Suite (with the most features). The package includes Max for Live functionality made possible through a collaboration with Cycling ’74.
Ableton also released a fourth version of Live, Lite, with the same limitations as Intro, which is only available bundled with a range of music production equipment, including MIDI controllers and audio interfaces.
Ableton Live lets you easily create, produce, and perform music in one intuitive interface. Live syncs everything and works in real time, so you can play and change your musical ideas without interrupting your creative flow.
But Live also has the revolutionary Session View: a unique notebook for improvising, playing, and performing with musical ideas, without time limits. Start and stop any number of audio or MIDI loops freely and independently – everything stays in sync. Almost everything in Live works in real time – add, reorder, or remove devices, play with Live’s flexible track routing, and more – all without interrupting your creative flow. Create bolder sounds with Live’s new devices.
Stay in the flow with a host of workflow improvements. Get even further away from your computer with Push. Shape your sound with a curated library. And get the unlimited potential of Max for Live, seamlessly built in.

Where is the KeyGen??? It isn’t inside!
Am guessing your Antivirus has quarantined the KeyGen.
Nope, I don’t think so cause for confirmation, I re-downloaded the entire thing and even opened and checked the archive before extracting it (through WinRAR)… No KeyGen file…
in the R2R folder the keygen is there (just checked before downloading, and have only downloaded the R2R folder, keygen is included)
make sure to switch OFF “real time protection” in virus and protection settings
or immediately after downloading go into R2R folder and save the keygen into a rar file before microsoft defender deletes the file
Does this one have the new AutoTune Native Ableton Pugin?
Hello, a question, I can’t find “Performance Pack and Auto Shifter” thanks
Sono nella versione 12.1, questa è la 12.0. Infatti stavo cercando proprio la 12.1 per guardare Auto Shifter
Eso es exactamente lo que descubrí, no hay cambio automático, eso es raro.
No AUTO PITCH?????? doesnt make any sense????? but autopich is not in this version ????
Yeah…Im waiting on 12.2 thats the one with AutoPitch…they have a nice one….dont know why they are not cracking that version…mind boggling
because its still in beta
Patched this one on the new update, counting on yall to come through for your ableton friends<3333333 Lots of love appreciate
1 . Install Ableton Live 11 Suite Installer.exe
2. Place the ABLETON PATCHER.exe file in the folder with the installed program and run it (Or drag Ableton Live 11 Suite.exe onto ABLETON PATCHER.exe) By default, the program folder
C:\ProgramData\Ableton\Live 11 Suite\Program
Note: _ If you changed the installation folder, the file must be placed in it. (*\Ableton\Live 11 Suite\Program)
3. Launch Ableton Live Suite and in the window that appears, click “No internet on this computer”. From the window that appears, copy “Your hardware code”.
Note: _ When you click “Save”, you can get a text file with the code.
4. Run the Ableton Keygen v2.exe file , paste the copied code ► Enter ► enter version “11” ► Enter ► select edition “0” ► Enter. The license file will appear next to Ableton Keygen v2.exe Just in case, there is Ableton_KeyGen.exe from R2R in the distribution
5. Drag the received file (Authorize.auz) into the registration window “Authorizing your software offline”
Hello, thanks for the explanation, but I can’t drag the “Authorize” file inside, the mouse icon changes to a “lock”
I got it
how did u get it? i have the problem that when i drag it it says that it couldn t authorize all functions –> it doesnt authorize
disable the “run as administrator” option or Ableton Live, so you can drag
I keep getting “some products could not be authorized due to an internal error” how can I fix this?
I don’t understand; it was working yesterday, but now it isn’t. Even the keygen doesn’t work anymore.
its because of the windows defender.. it would have removed the vcruntime140_1.dll file. give access to it and add it in the ableton file location. apply keygen, then it will work
HEY GUYS, FOR THOSE GETTING THE “some products could not be authorized due to an internal error” when you are running the KEYGEN, make sure to select the optin “12” not “11” that’s why you are seeing this.
any chance to get recent version (12.1.15) ? Thanks
anyone get a “some products could not be authorized due to an internal error” message? this happens when i drag the auth file to live. It then says ” Pleas visit ableton.com/account/request-unlock.” i wonder if its because i uninstalled the previous version 12.05 and updated to 12.10… my only observations that can potentially be this error would be that my hardware code stayed the same. thank you for your help..
My version 12.1. works 2 day’s and then i get a message “ Pleas visit ableton.com/account/request-unlock. Is this normal? Or are there people where this version is working for longer then 3 days?
\
why can’t save or export
hi my windows firewall is troubling even if I switch it off, even when i am not connected to the internet… Any way to help me out?
Any ways we can get only the crack and the keygen?
