Re: Push quality issues, how to adress them, and UI requests.

Bumping this because I just got a Push last night and they haven't changed a thing with the LEDs. I thought the shade differences were part of Note Mode scales lol o.O I only ran across this thread looking to see if Push would be brighter off a USB 3 port than 2 (500mA vs 900mA, though I'm thinking ...

Re: do you have Live 32 or 64 bit?

64-bit. And cursing Ableton for not making Live switchable between the two in OS X.

Though I only have one 32-bit plugin left, Synplant. And Iris crashes constantly if used in a 64-bit host for me (Live or Studio One) =/ so I might download the 32-bit Live as well.

Re: Audio Interface for recording instruments and Nord Electro

The Fastlane is a MIDI interface. It does not do audio. Do you want to record any number of instruments/parts at a time, or will one at a time suffice? That makes a difference in the number of inputs you need, and thus cost. if you want to record a mic'd amp, that will need minimum a speaker mic, bu...

But you shouldn't be using 32 bit plug-ins, it's 2013 for god's sake 8O
What's funny about that is, I just got an email today from Audio Realism that their plugins went 64-bit :lol:

Re: Suite 8 -> Live 9? Who is going down this route?

I've decided not to upgrade due to personal reasons about how the pricing situation was handled.

It has nothing to do with the price itself, btw.

Re: Live 9 Pricing

i dont see the problem, if someone dont like the price then he shouldnt buy it. whining about it wouldnt help. If people remain silent when they don't like something, no one ever knows that anyone feels there is a problem. Whether that feeling is justified is up for debate, of course. But you can't...

Re: Live 9 Pricing

The more I think about it, the more I feel it's pretty insulting to offer it for a limited time. This whole time they've been saying the price we see isn't right, and will be fixed at launch. And then suddenly they finally offer us this new price, and it's for a week. Screw dealing with all this DAW...

Re: Live 9 Pricing

I don't mind the $250 for 9 Suite upgrade so much, but what bothers me is that I have to get it by March 12th or miss out and it's back to $299 by my understanding :| Kinda loses it's special appeal when I have a gun to my head and have to get it by X date :lol: but at the end of the day it's my cho...

This has been beaten to death and several of us have emailed Ableton directly. You keep Operator, Analog, etc if you go from Suite 8 to 9 Standard.

Re: March the 5th!!!!!!!!!!

Well my apologies for doubting, but I got it direct from Ableton that I'd keep all my Suite instruments if I went to Standard 9. Still seems crazy to me, but it's staring to sink in.

All the same I plan to go to 9 Suite anyway :)

Re: Comparison Video tb-303 vs. x0xb0x

Garbage! Nothing compares to the real thing!!

I kid :mrgreen: if all I made was acid techno I'd buy a x0xb0x in a heartbeat :)

ABL2 satisfies my needs atm. But the x0x does sound awesome.

Re: March the 5th!!!!!!!!!!

I've been quiet on this, but I find it strange that the people who have forked out for the Orchestral Instruments don't get a discount also... And that there is no apparent complaint from them.... It cost more than Max for Live! I've noticed that, too. Maybe there just aren't very many of them? It ...

Re: March the 5th!!!!!!!!!!

When I upgraded to Suite 8, I only owned Sampler separately. Are you saying that if I go from Suite 8 to 9 Standard, I'd get to keep Operator, Collision, Electric, and Analog? That's crazy! Nice of Ableton, but it still seems crazy. I dont think it is crazy. You should be able to upgrade to the new...

Re: March the 5th!!!!!!!!!!

To clear up the confusion - if you upgrade from Suite 8 to Live 9 Standard, you'll still get to keep everything that you had with Suite 8. You just won't get any of the new stuff in Live 9 Suite (Max for Live + 25 new devices, The Forge, Session Drums Club/Multimic/Studio, Digicussion 2, Orchestral...
