here is a customer that comes from a legit cubase crap and is verry happy with live. live has been very stable for me for long time now, actually since version 5. and as we mention version 8; since i upgraded from 8.0.3 no problems at all. you should take a look your hardware to see possible mistake...

i started after 7 years on a mac with a pc, and yes it wastes more time, but there are many things i can do with a pc better than on a mac, and there is more freedom on operative system decision on a pc. both are good, but it`s a personal decision.

my studio fits in a handbaggage. don`t seem to miss anything. even without half of that i could do, just live, notebook and a soundcard would do just fine.

find a good recipe how to make a cat deep fried in the oven and make it for dinner.

my studio: notebook live 8 suite tons of vst plugins 1tb of sample cds 1 field recording microphone sound card midi keyboard akai mpd18. even with less i could do. i`m focused more on the music with less junk. having a lot of gear is nice, but wastes time. a stupid dictaphone recorder sometimes to c...

why bother yourself with the companies that have messy drivers like tc electronic, m-audio, focusrite.... for some mid range there is edirol, echo, higher there is rme. roland releases only tested drivers. they do not have 20 versions of driver. there is one and this one works. that says it all. ech...

i use here a PCIexpress34 echo indigo on a notebook - on 128samples no problems on huge things. that gives output latency of 3,9ms reports live. PCI controller is TI, toshiba notebook

here runs FA-66 on the lowest setup available without any problem. on vista64 i get lowest setup 6,5ms output latency, TI chipset.

i changed to win after 7 years on a mac,and still remaining.all this fuss about mac/win better/worse is just crap.i use a soft and a computer wich does what i want,and i will always do like that.it is just a tool.if tommorow some other device does better for me i`ll change again and put pc to trash ...

i run my indigo express34 on 128 buffer and never crackles,but i can use also 64 buffer.seems too low for complete project,but some vst can go lower than 128 samples.the card is okay and costs cheap,and i also think on taking multiface2 aroud christmas,but on ssd my conclusion is generally it is bet...

i have on a toshiba notebook 2,2c2d and all texas instruments controllers a transcend 192gb mlc.works about 30% faster than 7200sata,but the seek time is better.probably some newer ssd discs go little faster.they do not go so fast like the specs say.audio works the same,no latency improvement on ssd...

i still use 8.0.9 and will so untill i see....

Audio Technica ATH-M40fs. love them.

acronis verified working without mistake many times on windows systems, so this i can recommend. others, could be also ok. make a test and let us know

they are fair on authorisations,just email them and explain. i did authorisation so far at least 10 times. i do a lot of reinstalations, testing on new systems and experience on work on system that seems to be ok, but after all installing, authorisation and diagnose i see that some hardware/software...
