Using Link in Note

Ableton Link allows you to synchronize music across your personal devices and collaborate with others. As of Live 12.4, Link Audio allows you to stream audio wirelessly between devices. Link can be used with Note and other Link-enabled devices and apps over a local network to connect any of the following devices:

  • Push 3 (standalone)
  • Move
  • iPhone or iPad with Note
  • iPhone or iPad with other iOS link-enabled apps
  • A computer with Ableton Live installed
  • Other Link-enabled hardware

Check the Link product page for a complete list of Link-enabled apps, and visit the Link FAQ for more information on the features and functions of Ableton Link. 

If you have issues or questions about Live and Link, please visit the Link section of the Live manual, as well as our guides to Link troubleshooting and set-up tips. For support with specific apps other than Note, contact the developer of the app.

Once Ableton Link is enabled, all Link-enabled devices will immediately connect, and the message “Connected to x peer” will appear under CONNECTED PEERS. If no device is found, the message “No peers connected” will be displayed.

Note: If a Link-enabled device fails to connect, double-check that the device is connected to the same Wi-Fi or LAN network as the other devices.
