Re: I have returned from the year 2007. What has happening?

It was in the main forum first. If he had posted it here I wouldn't have said anything.

But yeah I'm not caught up on my Ableton Forum lore. :mrgreen:

Re: Ableton Acquires Cycling '74

That's my thinking when asking why don't you switch? You aren't going to be happy with the direction Ableton is going in, and frankly brand loyalty is silly. Why are you talking about me switching all the time? This "If you don't like it, you can leave" rhetoric is really getting a bit mu...

Re: Ableton Acquires Cycling '74

Hey dude, you're getting way to much pranky and irrespectful here. This is supposed to be a discussion, not a male contest. You're already going too far right now, so if you mind about this community please think one more time before writing. It's awesome to debate... it sucks as soon as you don't ...

Re: Ableton Acquires Cycling '74

Your assertion that this time it will all just work out and they finally: a.) make M4L integrated enough that the issues I mentioned in a post above (which you also seem to have ignored) will all be solved. b.) go back to developing Live on equal or greater footing Are just that, assertions. Others...

Re: Ableton Acquires Cycling '74

I think both cycling74 and ableton are pretty clear and consistent with their word. Also, they have an established respect for each other that seems quite transparent and established, historically in the public realm. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying anyone is lying, I'm sure they believe what th...

Re: Ableton Acquires Cycling '74

Besides what are the Max users saying about this step, the ones not using Live? Doesn't that mean the Max standalone version will disappear or at least get neglected? No, it doesn't mean that at all and Gerhard said it point blank in the interview. But in most merger cases this sort of rhetoric is ...

Re: 25% off sale at Ableton

Yeah on second thought, I think I considered Operator as well, so between the two the rest of the difference then didn't feel worth mentioning anymore.

Re: Routing midi events to chains by midi channel

(I think the OP wants to process MIDI from other tracks.) True, the OP wasn't clear about the source of the MIDI. But if it's com...

Re: 25% off sale at Ableton

hmm, maybe. i can't be arsed to upgrade though. i've slowly bought stuff in suite apart from the extra effects and stuff which i figure i can manage without. i already got MFL on crossgrade. operator and sampler on the cheap :) Yeah, I couldn't live without Sampler--I added that during a sale a cou...

Re: Ableton Acquires Cycling '74

Angstroms points notwithstanding, I think the main problem I have (and others seem to have as well), is that we have serious doubts that they can pull it off. And we would much rather they didn't waste years trying something that is very likely to fail and rather keep updating Live at a good pace. L...

Re: Routing midi events to chains by midi channel

I don't know much about M4L, but I think you can work around that limitation in Live proper. 1.) Make as many new MIDI tracks as you have MIDI channels you want to send MIDI on. 2.) Set MIDI-From in each one of them such that they receive the MIDI only from one those MIDI channels. 3.) Set the MIDI-...
