Re: 6 Operator Presets Live Should Have Shipped With

Poorly documented, poorly organized and mostly useless.

It was my dissatisfaction with that Live pack that led to this tutorial.

6 Operator Presets Live Should Have Shipped With

It's actually just one preset; this post explains how to create other sounds quickly using this preset.

Re: Why I use Ableton Live (even though I hate it)

Then how about actually buying your software before you 'review' it?

As I understand it, in that you don't actually own a legitimate copy of Ableton Live, you're a thief first and foremost.

I saw the comment by dom in the other thread - do you really think I'm going to post shit like this under ...

Re: Why I use Ableton Live (even though I hate it)

No F-bombs? I'm disappointed.

I would be surprised if I didn't let a few slip in there.

Spoiler: This post is largely pro-Ableton.

I'm pretty sure I let off most of my frustration in the last post.

Just a little tip. If you hope to be taken seriously as a writer/reviewer and viewed as a ...

Re: Why Upgrading to Live 8 is a Waste of Money

I expect a set of usable, predictable presets to arrive alongside each new feature - otherwise, the feature is largely useless, since you are leaving a large portion of the actual sound design work to your users.

wow, did you expect to say that and retain any sort of street cred?

after all, what ...

I can't believe I'm about to feed this troll.... :roll:

Dude, you've got brass balls coming here with that comedy material. You really think your dozen posts on the Ableton forum are going to sway the opinions of dedicated users? Sure, some of us drink the kool-aid, but for the most part, this ...

Re: Why Upgrading to Live 8 is a Waste of Money

The full version of FL Studio only costs $10 more than this - and they offer free upgrades for life! With such a huge price gap, you’d better have a pretty good reason to choose Ableton Live over FL Studio, and an even better reason to spend $189 on a version upgrade.

It's not like FL Studio is ...

Re: Why Upgrading to Live 8 is a Waste of Money

they are misleading you

"we believe you should have the functionality you paid for bugfixed for as long as we develop it."

THE FUNCTIONALITY YOU PAID FOR bugfixed. meaning you don't get more functionality than you originally paid for (thats an upgrade)

Right. The only difference is, FL Studio ...

I'd like to point out again that with fruityloops you get a lifetime free upDATES, not upGRADES. I believe that merits an editing of the original troll review. after all, trolls should check their facts.

And funky shit, you're an idiot.

Because...

Because your first post to the thread was a statement of your own ignorance. Why would you ignore a review just because it makes a comparison to a competing software company?

It's not like FL Studio is actually useful or anything.

Also, the big red ...

Well, i think from your general posts it is obvious you don't really love Live. 'Ableton preset deisgners: Fuck you'? A note of love perhaps?

Hilarious stuff.

I would think someone named "UKRuss" would understand my dry humor. Points taken on the groove engine and such.

Re: Why Upgrading to Live 8 is a Waste of Money

the Browser’s new waveform display only lets you scrub clips you’ve already warped.
wrong.. make sure 'Raw' is disabled and scrub away..

If only this were true. Try disabling "warp long clips by default" and see what happens.

Or try it on clips you haven't loaded yet.
