Here's how to transition to 12, and why you might want to 

Ableton released Live 12 earlier this year with a number of enhancements. Many producers still use Live 11 and don’t know why or how to upgrade.

• Live 12 isn’t an automatic update from 11; you must visit Ableton’s site and purchase it.

• Live 12 costs $229 for Suite users and $159 for Standard users.

• Sound libraries will migrate from 11 to 12. You might only need to make sure that the preferences match your settings.

• Live 12 isn’t drastically different from 11, yet it offers some new features that could be very handy.
