Touchscreen Support!

by on Mar.21, 2013, under Basic Features

Ever wanted to be able to the audio waveform and toss it around? Put your fingers on an XY effect and a loop roll effect at the same time? Control the effects chain with both hands? Me too!

So when the new windows 8 touchscreens started to hit the market this spring, I was first in line. Work began, and now we’re happy to announce full support for Windows 8 touchscreens. You can play samples and loops, alter the sequencer, play the keyboard, tweak the parameters of any our custom effects or any VST or AU plugin chains; all in real time and with all 10 fingers. This is music you can touch, and an experience like no other.

Stay tuned for videos and improvements all summer!

LaunchPad Support Arrives!

by on May.28, 2012, under Basic Features

We’ve started adding control surfaces to the software. First up – Novation’s incredible LaunchPad controller. The LaunchPad is one of the most popular midi controllers of the last few years. If you own one, Livetronica will now find it on startup. The Launchpad can be used to trigger clips and loops, and will light up to show you which loops are loaded and playing. We even got the lights to keep time with the beat. Check out the video for full details.

New Features

by on Jan.12, 2011, under Basic Features

You may notice a lot of new business around Livetronica Studio (and a few “under construction” signs).

A quick update to everyone (and thanks for the emails):

1 – Turntable filters – now you can map XY effects like the turntable filters to midi controller with a single touch. The filter you see is designed to cover the entire frequency spectrum (20Hz-20kHZ), and allow the musician to simply touch the pad and apply a filter to either (or both) turntable(s).

2 – Library – Livetronica Studio now remembers recent projects / turntables / beats and places them all on the right hand side of the screen. Drag and drop the items into the views to load them. Additionally, soon you will be able to browse projects online (and share you’re own).

3 - Effects – Available VST/AU plugins are listed on in the library and can now be dragged onto most components, even other plugins (so you can add reverb to a VST piano, or drop a distortion effect onto a loop or turntable).

Easiest Midi Learn on the Planet!

by on Dec.12, 2010, under Advanced Features, Basic Features

As a real time instrument, it is important to be able to customize Livetronica control to allow you to set up midi control and keyboard shortcuts quickly and easily. Just completed for the new Livetronica release is a versatile system for mapping virtually every command at the click of a button.

Just right click (or CTRL-click) on any Livetronica button, knob or slider and you get a dropdown menu with a list of the currently mapped commands and the ability to change them.



All the parameters of the Beat Splicer are now midi learnable, so you can easily tweak your beats as you play.


The same is true of the visualization suite. All the parameters can be mapped quickly and easily to midi control surfaces so you can control the waveforms in real time. Or map the Livetronica drums and turn any midi surface into a drumset.

In midi learn mode, you can see what items have been mapped, and what other items can be mapped.
