Re: Apple forgets about serious musicians

USB 3.0 has superior bandwidth compared with FW800. Actually USB 2.0 is plentiful for most production studios where we don't record a whole ensemble at the same time.

Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?

Yeah, actually these guys are talking about problems that permeate, sure, most people my not realize there even was a problem, but these aren't special cases. Guitars are tuned. Speakers are calibrated. Plugin delay is compensated. Trashy guitars and damaged speakers are the basis of rock music. In...

Re: Presonus Studio One v2 - 50% Off - Today only

Yes, Studio One has very good ideas about productive workflows. That would be my main DAW but I'm very much vested in Logic up to my fingertips nowadays.

Oh, not even LIve 9 does not have zoom bound to mouse scroll wheel/keyboard shortcuts? Wow. I guess it's even too much to ask to have a gesture for trackpads...

Re: Attention M-Audio "Firewire410" owners!

FW410 drivers have been problematic since day one, I got one long time ago and sent M-Audio many many bug reports related to sleep mode and other oddities. Switched to Apogees and FocusRite products two years ago and their drivers are rock-solid.

Re: Presonus Studio One v2 - 50% Off - Today only

Many Live users also use another DAW, I think that's a very common scenario. and even more would if Ableton would make it possible to use 3rd party plug-ins while in Rewire mode....... but I've been angry about this for too long to let myself get angry all over again :( Supposedly the latest 9 beta...

Re: Presonus Studio One v2 - 50% Off - Today only

Studio One also has excellent comp take support and anyone who does voice, guitar or similar takes knows how nice that is. You record let's say 16 bars over and over and sweep in the parts you like from multiple takes.

Re: Presonus Studio One v2 - 50% Off - Today only

Crazy good prices and Studio One is a very good DAW. I would get it but I'm so heavily invested in Logic and there's just not enough time to learn more DAWs instead of making music.

Re: Err, I own suite + m4l and it's cheaper for me to buy Logic?

I got Logic for $500 long time ago. I don't mind the lower price today, I think that's where SW pricing is heading, anyway.

Questionable comment. Anyway, you get a lot for $190 indeed. And with flex mode you could do same kind of time stretching as with Ableton Live.

Re: price change? live9

I'm with Kent on this. I've been using Live since version 4. I think Abletons customer service and generally their public image have both deteriorated drastically in recent years. Live is still the software I love, but Ableton is not the company it once was. This forum is another example. They make...

Re: price change? live9

...and about how this has apparently ruined Kent's (and many other people) lives. Not ruined my life, just got another perspective as a long-term customer about how Ableton deals with us. Yes no definite response from Ableton. My wife said, why are you still doing this, just give up on Ableton. I t...
