THE BROWSER, COLLECTIONS AND FILE HANDLING IN ABLETON LIVE 10
We’ve already covered the most prominent features in Live 10, starting with the new and updated devices (on p36), then the more workflow-based changes and improvements in the Arrangement View (p40). Following those, there’s a surprising amount to talk about in the nuts’n’ bolts world of file management. This is the stuff that you use every time you’re working with Live. I totally get the need to add new instruments and effects, but if all Ableton had done for this release was refine the workflow and keep everything stable, I’d be content. For example, Live 10 opens and closes projects (and their content) faster. That’s the kind of improvement that gives you back hours of your life, over time, and will be particularly appreciated by live performers.
The new colour-coded Collections are a great new option for finding and organising content. All you have to do
