Ableton Live 12 Suite now available as Rent-to-own
Have you ever wanted a copy of Ableton Live 12 Suite, but the price tag is just too eye-watering for you to spend in one go? We have some good news: Ableton has just launched their Rent-to-own plan, which means you can finally dive into the fully-featured Suite without dropping a big lump sum on day one.
Rent-to-own vs Subscription
This isn’t one of those “keep paying forever” subscriptions. Once you’ve made your last payment, the license is 100% yours. Simple.

Flexibility
Having some cash flow problems? No problem. You can stop the payments anytime with no penalties (you’ll still have access until the end of your monthly billing cycle). You can even clear the balance early if you catch a windfall or just want to clear it quicker!
Bonus: If Live 13 (or beyond) drops while you’re still paying? You’ll be able to extend your plan to cover the upgrade instead of starting from scratch.
Pricing
- Live 12 Suite: 24 monthly payments of $31.21/€24.96/£22.46 for a regular Live 12 Suite license

You can get these directly from the Ableton website.

You can also purchase full sample packs, beats and plugins without a subscription!
