The new preset adds shortcuts for some of Ableton's most important functions, including the save button, adding new audio, MIDI and return tracks, muting tracks, time controls and the ability to switch between Ableton's two main views.
“Ableton Live has not yet received any official support for the Touch Bar, so we at pATCHES put together this collection of icons, shortcuts, and macros to take advantage of the adaptable portion of your keyboard.” “After owning a new MacBook for some time now, I can report back to say the Touch Bar is no gimmick at all – everyday applications like Photoshop, Quicktime, and Premiere get a productivity boost with app-specific toolsets right at the top of your keyboard,' states the site. Well, the gimmickry might be coming to an end as Ableton-centric site pATCHES has created its own unofficial Ableton support for Apple's much-maligned Touch Bar. Ever since Apple's Touch Bar made its debut on the latest MacBooks - we've yet to see its addition as anything other than a clever gimmick.
