Now in public beta is CV Tools, a new Pack of 10 Max for Live devices that generate or receive Pitch, Control, Clock and Trigger CV.

Discover Ableton Packs: downloadable instruments, effects and sounds. CV Tools is ten creative Max for Live devices that let you control and interact with your. Using CV Tools and a semi-modular Moog Synthesizer, learn how to quickly and easily synchronize, modulate, trigger, and play your modular hardware synthesizer with Ableton live, opening new portals to creativity and expressive sound design. Control Voltage, abbreviated CV, is an analog method for controlling electronic hardware instruments.

Soon you’ll be able to receive and modulate CV between your modular or other CV-based gear and Ableton Live 10 using a compatible, DC-coupled audio interface. You’ll also be able to use Live as the tempo leader or set it to follow your modular system clock.

Plus, even if you don’t own a modular setup, the Rotating Rhythm Generator and CV Utility devices can add modular-style workflow inside Live or to hardware setups that don’t use CV-based equipment.

CV Tools is being developed by Ableton in collaboration with Skinnerbox.
