Ableton Move Midi Controller

Ableton Move is a new standalone instrument for intuitive music making. With a simple workflow, portable design and a core library of over 1500 sounds and instrument presets, Move lowers the barrier to getting started on a new idea. Move comes with 32 polyphonic aftertouch pads, a 16-step sequencer and an in-built microphone and speaker. It integrates effortlessly with Ableton Live software, so you can start ideas on Move and finish them in Live.

Create faster than you can overthink Start fast and keep the momentum going. Assign Move’s four flexible tracks as drum kits, samplers or instruments, or turn drum hits into melodies with the 16-pitches drum layout*. A microphone, 3.5mm line-in and built-in speaker make it perfect for quick sampling and making music on the go. And Move’s battery provides up to four hours of use on a single charge.

Ready to play Move uses many of the same instruments and effects that power Ableton Live. Its core library is easy to access and tweak, and contains samples, presets and drum hits from Ableton’s sound design team, plus special collaborations with BNYX, DECAP, L.Dre, Sound Oracle and more.

You can use eight built-in audio effects, including a reverb, delay and saturator to bring depth and texture to Move’s output. Apply up to two effects per track, plus two on Move’s master output.

Tactile control Shape sounds with nine touch-sensitive, endless rotary encoders, and play notes, beats, samples, and clips with 32 backlit pads. Each pad responds to pressure independently, letting you add more movement to your tracks.

Play now, refine later Create, rework and combine ideas, then head to Live to add finishing touches. Wi-Fi connectivity means you can easily transfer Sets to Live and Note with Ableton Cloud and Move Manager.

Move’s tight integration with Live’s interface and workflow also makes it the ultimate compact control surface for Ableton Live.
