Ableton Forum

Given Ableton's track record, they do seem to be making us wait quite a bit longer then usual.


Thank gawd for that. I've been on board since version... three, I think... and I'm running out of piles of cash to keep forking over to stay up to date on the latest version -- and not always clear ...

Thank you for your response, Jörg.
