Ok, let's switch it up...instead of my usual Friday-Fanboy-ism, I want to post any rant I can find about Live out on the web. It'll be therapeutic. Hell, it'll be just plain fun to see what the crazies are sayin'

Start with this one...

Now this guy is CLEARLY delusional, since Sonar products have routinely sucked when it comes to VST implementation, whereas Live shines...

wz061s -> RE: [OT] Ableton Live (8/8/2006 2:51:11 AM)

I own P5 and Live, and if you review my posts you will see I was really giddy on Live for a while.

In fairness, Live has great warping alrorithms, routing and input quantize. It also records in what we know as "the Matrix", which P5 won't do.

However, as a company Ableton sucks. IMO. As I get older, this means a lot more to me. I'm tired of ignored bug reports, and machine based copy protection.

As slow as Cakewalk is to respond to users for feature enhancements, I still feel loyalty to them because their products are solid, and run VST's that Live can't handle.

Hello,

Well as the title of my thread says, the search engine of this forum is crap. I was looking for a post made a while ago (don't know who the original poster was) on an online hearing test. However, I got a whole load of totally unrelated stuff and still haven't found what I was looking for. Admitedly, I didn't look through every single one of the possible hundreds of posts it could have been. But I did think the subject I was looking for is clear enough not to include things like:

"What software would you buy again if you lost it?", "your opinions on guitar rig", "Obama almost in the lead" etc.....

It's not important what tools you use, but Live sucks nevertheless:

its not important what tools are used on the computer but what is created with them in the end. in my opinion, Ableton sucks.
