Ableton Live 7 Review  Editors Choice 

Ableton Live is a digital-audio workstation (DAW) program that lets you trigger prerecorded audio with a Mac’s keyboard, mouse, or a MIDI controller. Unlike traditional DAWs, MIDI control makes Live a playable instrument as well as an audio editor and MIDI sequencer. The new Live 7 delivers refinements to features found in previous versions, as well as introduces new capabilities that will be welcome to musicians, DJs, and producers.

Bandstand

The concept is simple and has been proven in hardware many times previously by Yamaha, Roland and others: provide a sample playback device that lets you load from a library of General MIDI-compatible sounds, hook this up to a MIDI keyboard or sequencer and away you go.
