There sure is a lot to love about Ableton Live 8 and Suite 8, but even the greatest love stories need an introduction. Ableton specialist Huston Singletary plays coy matchmaker in this, the first of four videos on Live 8 and Suite 8.

In this intro, Huston goes over the now-familiar Live interface, including the mix and arrange windows, and explains how they foster a healthy workflow. Just so things don't seem to staid, he throws on a sexy, Live-quantized groove. Does this dude know how to set the mood or what? I think I hear tempo-synced wedding bells!
