Trust your instincts
Move helps you capture your best ideas whenever they appear. Pick it up, find new sounds and make fast decisions about what feels right in the moment. Follow your intuition wherever it leads you.
Standalone and portable
Move’s built-in processor, speaker and microphone make it the ideal companion for on-the-go music creation, and its battery gives you up to four hours of use on a single charge.
Create faster than you can overthink
Catch the first flashes of inspiration as quickly as they come, and keep the momentum going with Move’s simple workflow. Mix and match ideas, see what works and what doesn’t. With Move, it’s easier than ever to outpace your inner critic.
Four flexible tracks
Turn any or all of Move’s four tracks into a drum kit, sampler or synthesizer, and create rhythms and patterns with its powerful step sequencer.
16 pitches for drums
Break out of the standard drum layout and turn any sample into a bassline or melody by transposing single drum hits to different pitches.
Ready to play
Move’s high-quality instruments, effects and samples are easy to access and tweak to your liking. When you start a new set, Move will load up four random instrument presets. See if they inspire you, or switch them out for new sounds.
Free sampling
Found a sound you like? Plug in your phone or use the built-in mic to record it, then turn it into a new beat or melody.
Sound selections
Move comes with all the sounds you need to make a track. Choose from over 1500 samples, presets and drum hits from Ableton’s sound design team, plus special collaborations with BNYX, DECAP, L.Dre, Sound Oracle and more.
Add some color
Bring more depth and texture to your sounds with Move’s built-in audio effects, including a reverb, delay and saturator.
Explore now, refine later
Move is about getting into the flow and seeing where it takes you. Create, rework and combine ideas until something clicks, then head to Live to finesse or add finishing touches.
Move includes Live 12.1 Intro.
