The missing piece

Features

Warp Marker Integration

Works directly with Ableton's Warp Markers to manipulate the timing of warped audio clips.

Timing Curve Control

The same powerful continuous curve from FlexGroove, now applied to audio. Shape timing with precision.

Push Integration

Control the most important parameters directly from Ableton Push — hands-on groove shaping without touching the mouse.

Timing Presets

Built-in timing presets to get you started. Save and recall your own curves for consistent groove across tracks.

Humanize

Add subtle, natural timing variation to audio clips. Breathe life into quantized or rigid loops.

Leader/Follower System

Link to FlexGroove for synchronized timing manipulation across MIDI and audio tracks simultaneously.

Swing Presets

Classic and creative swing patterns ready to apply. Go beyond Ableton's built-in swing settings.

Most Flexible Swing

Ableton's built-in swing is limited to two-note patterns. FlexGrooveAudio offers swing with up to 16 steps — perfect for ternary beats or J Dilla-style multiple-note swing patterns.

Works With Any Audio

Drums, percussion, bass lines, vocals, full mixes — any warped audio clip can be groove-manipulated.
