ABLESET 2 FEATURES
CREATE YOUR SETLIST IN SECONDS
AbleSet uses the cues or section clips of your Ableton project to create your setlist. Use the setlist notation to define songs and sections, add comments, loops, stop points, and more.
PRINTABLE SETLISTS
Just press CMD+P in AbleSet’s setlist view to print a simple version of your setlist.
JUMP MODES
In addition to jumping to the cued song or section directly or when the current section ends, AbleSet 2 can now wait for the current song to end or for playback to stop before jumping. This is handy for cueing the next song you want to play without having to make changes to your setlist.
SUPPORT FOR GUIDE TRACKS
AbleSet 2 allows you to create guide tracks that automatically get muted when you cue a section that is not the next one, to not confuse anyone on stage. Additionally, you can create a loop guide track that only gets unmuted when the current section is being looped.

REORDER SONGS AS YOU PLEASE
Quickly reorder and exclude songs from your setlist, without needing to touch the Ableton session. AbleSet calculates the total duration and lets you know how long your set will take.
CUSTOMIZABLE PERFORMANCE VIEW
Every artist needs different information on stage. The new customizable performance view allows you to choose exactly what you want to see per device, so singers can see the song title and lyrics while your MD can see the current timecode and quick play buttons to jump to sections.
The performance view gives you all important information about your setlist at a glance. Quickly see the current and next song, work with notes, and control playback in a minimalistic interface that’s perfect for on-stage tablet use.
LYRICS
Quickly create synchronized lyrics for your songs using MIDI tracks in Live. AbleSet 2 has support for multiple lyrics tracks, chords, and custom formatting, and comes with a handy tool to synchronize lyrics to your songs without having to manually create clips for each line.
CONTROL MULTIPLE COMPUTERS FOR REDUNDANT PLAYBACK
If you’re running a redundant playback system with two or more computers, AbleSet can control them all simultaneously through AbleNet. No matter which of your machines might crash, your show will keep running.
PLAYAUDIO12 INTEGRATION
If you’re using a PlayAUDIO12 in your redundant setup, AbleSet now displays its current status in the setlist and performance view and allows you to toggle between your main and backup computer quickly.
USE YOUR COMPUTER, TABLET, OR PHONE TO LAUNCH SONGS
Since AbleSet runs in the browser, it can be used on any device that’s in the same network as your computer. This doesn’t require an internet connection. Want to use AbleSet on multiple devices at the same time? That’s no problem. Everything happens in real time.

CONTROL ABLESET WITH YOUR MIDI CONTROLLER OF CHOICE
If you prefer to control playback from your MIDI controller instead of your phone or tablet, AbleSet ships with a Max for Live device that allows you to do exactly that. You can also combine both methods to create the setup that suits you.
OSC SUPPORT
AbleSet 2 can be completely controlled via OSC. This allows you to build your own custom controls and automate your playback setup using TouchOSC, Open Stage Control, or any other tool that supports OSC.
MULTI-FILE PROJECTS
AbleSet 2 allows you to split your session into one Live project per song. This is useful if you don’t like using one big project file containing all songs.
HBT –
AbleSet is an incredibly well thought out and beautifully designed app, which quickly became an indispensable tool in my Ableton Live Box. Léo has implemented pretty much every feature a playback engineer, solo performer or band could wish for – and keeps delivering stunning updates. Simply awesome! Thank you, Léo!
