The missing link between Koala Sampler and Ableton Live. Convert your iPad/Android sketches into fully mapped Ableton Drum Racks or pad per track with one click.

Stop wasting time bouncing stems! While Koala only exports Audio or MIDI separately, the Koala2Ableton Bridge combines both into a professional desktop workflow.

• ✅ Full Scene Translation: Your Koala sequences become Ableton clips.
• ✅ Automatic Drum Rack: All 16 pads pro Banks are automatically mapped to a single Ableton Drum Rack. Bank A, B, etc. become individual Drum Racks
• ✅ Automatic generate Tracks: All pads are automatically mapped to a single Ableton Simpler Track with Sample
• ✅ Saves Track Limits: Perfect for Ableton Live Lite/Intro users – 16 pads, but only 1 track used.
• ✅ Quakka Synth Pad: Covert in a Wavetable Synth with Midi Clip
• ✅ Chopper Pad: Covert in a Sliced Sample Track with Midi Clip
• ✅ Deep Metadata Transfer: Not only notes, but also Velocity and Probability (per-step) are fully preserved.
• ✅ Visual Sync: Clip Names and Pad Colors are automatically carried over to Ableton for a 1:1 workflow.
• ✅ Ableton Move Ready: Ideal for further processing on your hardware or in the DAW.
• ✅ Pure MIDI + Sample Power: Keep your creative flow going without manual re-sampling.

KoAble v0.1.1

Compatibility & Templates:

• Optimized for Ableton 12: The tool includes a built-in template for Ableton 12, so you can start producing immediately.
• Legacy Support: If you are using an older version (Ableton 10 or 11), you can easily create your own template to ensure full compatibility with the generated project files."

Hey guys, I built a small Windows app called KoAble, which converts Koala Sampler .koala projects into Ableton Live Sets .als, including extracted samples and mapped (Midi Clips) tracks.

What it does

• Converts Koala projects into Ableton sets
• Exports pads as individual tracks
• Processes cut/divided workflows
• Chopper convert to slices in simpler
• Quokka converts to Wavetable synth
• Midi Clips with velocity and probability paramter
• Pan And Volume extract from Koala Sampler to Mixer in Ableton
• Transfers MIDI patterns with samples in simpler
• Includes synth and EQ mapping per pad (template-based)

Release KoAble Windows Build · marcelkar78-rgb/Koala-zu-Ableton-Konverter

Notes

• Windows-Build (.exe)
• You need an Ableton template (.als) for the export structure (A bundled standard Ableton 12 template is now included on the GitHub page. If your setup works with the standard, you can leave the template field empty and export directly. Use a custom template only if your Live version or personal setup requires it.)
• If you test it, I would really appreciate feedback (bugs, special cases, feature ideas)

If it helps you with your workflow, feel free to support the development via the in-app donate button 🙌
