Make music with video
EboSuite is a growing set of plug-ins that turns Ableton Live into an audio-visual production suite. With EboSuite you can create, sample, play, mix and manipulate visuals in the same way as you are used to with audio. The plug-ins are designed to fit seamlessly in the creative workflow of music producers and performers. This provides an unrivalled way of integrating music and visuals into live shows and music productions.

Easy to use
If you know Ableton Live, you know EboSuite. It’s that simple.
Reliable
We have been developing software and hardware for audiovisual productions and performances since 1995. The EboSuite plug-ins are seamlessly integrated into Live’s interface, but all the video processing is done outside of Ableton Live in a separate, native Windows/OSX application to maximize performance and reliability. All communication with the EboSuite application happens through the EboSuite plug-ins within Ableton Live. Very easy to use, very reliable.
