Maya is a fantastic emulation of the Juno and works seamlessly in Push 3 Standalone

Authentic and accurate emulation of the Juno, including the infamous Chorus.

I'm having a lot of fun with this one! It's really great to have a good Juno in the Push Standalone. I'm probably selling the MPC now that I have this :D

Maya is insanely good. I expected little and received 10x. Aside from the fundamental correctness of the synth itself, the advantage of having such a beautifully presented GUI resting at the bottom of Ableton and always on display should excite everyone. I’m sold on Monomono tbh. I’ve bought every single product including the Mono synth and all the comps and eq’s. I’m highly likely to retire a great many of my VST/AU collection so I can stay more focused on making music. Cheers for setting the bar so high and showing what’s really possible with M4L.

Although I generally don’t have a super high opinion of the sound quality of many Max4Live synths, this is one of the very best that I’ve ever heard. Possibly the best VA you can get for Push 3 Standalone at the moment, I’d say. The Push integration is what takes it to 5 stars for me, for sure. Nice work!

Sounds fantastic. The Juno-60 was my first analog synth in the 90s, so Maya feels very familiar and is fun, quick, and easy to program. If I had to be nit picky, I would love to see a more robust user preset management system in a future update.

Important Information

Our Products are generally provided as Zip file downloads which in all cases will need to be extracted and saved to your hard drive prior to installation. Details on the different file type provided and what to do with them are below.

.alp Files – These are Ableton Live Packs and will either install directly into the Packs Section of the browser of Ableton Live or ask you to save them to your hard drive. For packs that install to the library, when you double click on them you will see a pop up window asking you to confirm that installation is ok as the files are described as “Legacy”. This is fine and you are ok to proceed, the packs are created using the format for an earlier version of Live and so remain compatible with the current version.

.amxd files – These are individual MaxforLive Devices and can be stored anywhere on your hard drive. We’d advise creating a folder for them and then adding that folder as a location within the Places section of Lives Browser.
