Re: Bitwig is the Killa!?

then is this thing whit the mouse,must change arrow from pencil to eraser and so on.. I think that is one area Ableton don't get enough credit for. I've worked with a lot of piano rolls some more powerful and some not as powerful as Ableton's but for ease of use and efficiency for common tasks Able...

Re: Specify number of repeats within a clip from the Loop Brace

Why not just make the clip longer and duplicate the parts you want to repeat? duplicating parts and making the clip longer is what i have to do now. but that just makes an audio file unnecessarily larger just to repeat phrases. and having to do that for an entire show's worth of audio clips (and mu...

Re: Update LIVE 9 for RETINA !!!

are they just suffering through it every workday or do they have a secret in-house build of Live with Retina support? They probably connect their Macs to standard resolution displays. Maybe they are PC users. :D Really though I'm sure that they has to know about this. I'm guessing that they are wor...

Re: Bitwig vs Ableton - PDC Test (Video)

Has Ableton ever addressed the issue? There have been plenty of threads about this problem. I just don't remember anyone from Ableton actually giving us some insight about the issue. Has anyone ever heard Ableton's stance on the problem? nothing but push updates and fixes, thats what they need to s...

Re: Plugins and Effects Aren't in Real Time?

Hey there, very new to this program. I've got my guitar plugged in to my interface and I can hear the generic clean sound through my headphones, but when I drag a plugin or an audio effect (like AMP) to the channel that I'm working in (I have the track armed), the sound doesn't change regardless of...

Re: Bitwig vs Ableton - PDC Test (Video)

It's been brought up so much here on the forums that I don't know why Ableton hasn't already fixed the problem. It makes me wonder if there is something inherently wrong with Live's code that makes it a problematic fix. I guess that it requires a full audio engine rewrite. To fix it Ableton would p...

Re: Bitwig is the Killa!?

Because trying to critique a Version 1 versus version 9 its like comparing a 3 year old to a 14 year old. If they compete at all in the same race its a miracle. And If the 3 year old has anything at all on the 14 year old, it's a little sad. I wouldn't go as far to say that. The newer developers ha...

Re: Bitwig vs Ableton - PDC Test (Video)

So how does this work in Cubase, Reaper, Reason, Logic, Studio One, Fruity Loops, Acid, Wuzik, etc.? Most DAWS now have full PDC. I think Reason is the only one on the list which doesn't have it. Sonar was the first program that has full PDC. Others slowly followed. 10 years ago very few DAWS had f...

Re: I dont get people who say live looks old/ugly/out of date

I really dont understand these people who say Live looks out of date. This shit looks futuristic to me you bastards! Remember when every program tried to look glassy like mac os and windows? Now everything is going flat. Ableton Live had the flat design back in 2001. Stop shitting on Lives look. Th...

Re: First DAW?

I've tried trial Live and Bitwig (a couple of others too, but these 2 suited me most). At the moment I own Live lite and am planing on buying something more proper. I had my eyes on Suite but than I've tried Bitwig and it is quite good. I am also eligable for student discount so my options are: 209...

Re: Just had a demo of Cockos - Reaper

4 years later... Reaper is a total weapon. I've been a casual Live users since version 3 and I will always use it. However, I have started using Reaper with increasing frequency due to it having superior performance and track management. I can't believe it's Live 9 already and still no take lanes L...

Re: Hard Disk Overload

Thank you guys - it is appreciated. Are there any fixes that wouldn't involve new hard drives? If it comes to this, I can do it, but it's going to be really expensive to buy any electronics down here, and I'm trying to avoid that. But if that's my only option... If I do need to resort to buying a n...
