**Ableton Live 12 Linux Compatibility update**
**New release: 2026.07.17.2**
Changes:
- WineASIO replaced with PipeASIO, a native PipeWire ASIO driver.
- Hardware inputs arrive as separate channels, Live can record from any PipeWire source, and the buffer size stays locked at 256 frames. Driver settings live in ~/.config/pipeasio/config.ini.
- Live now idles at about 2 to 5 percent CPU, dropping the baseline CPU usage by like 75%
- Theme regressions fixed. Live follows the system light/dark scheme again.
- Webview corruption in the Learn View fixed.
- The installer can now update in place. Live, your settings, and your license are kept.
