JazzMutant has announced that Mu, an application that lets you control Ableton Live with the JazzMutant Lemur, is out and it’s free:

Mu is the first truly integrated Ableton Live touch controller. Taking advantage of the doors opened by Max for Live, and with zero configuration necessary (yes, entirely plug and play!) , you will finally be able to: Touch Ableton Live!

First you must update your lemur firmware from the Jazzmutant User Aera, then you can download the Mu Package and play!

Mu was created out of a desire to build the ultimate controller for Ableton Live. Max/MSP, with it’s integrated OSC support has long been been a perfect partner to JazzMutant’s groundbreaking Lemur controller. The arrival of Max for Live meant that access to the inner workings of Ableton Live was finally available to the Lemur via our old friend. Mu refers not only to a dynamic control template for the Lemur but also to the Max for Live plugin by the same name which we’ve programmed so you don’t have to. With our entirely plug and play system you can finally touch Ableton Live and simply focus on the music. Of course, we haven’t forgotten about the JazzMutant programming enthusiasts and the open architecture of Mu will provide a wonderful starting point for your own Max for Live experimentation and performance systems.

Pretty steamy. If you’ve tried this out, leave a comment with your thoughts on the Lemur + Mu combination!
