holy... what can this NOT do? this is the best purchase i've made in a long while. mutilation is not even a fitting word. i'm hearing sounds from the icy dark side of the moon. thank you Ableton & Cycling74. 8O

apparently but this does not effect my routine with Live. (actually, with What can this NOT do? i was referring to the mangling potential of Maxforlive.) there are, of course, a lot of things Live cannot do (at different junctures), however as a whole i am loving this new integration.

i didn't care. i knew the pluggo suite had been adapted and that there would be various new midi effects/instruments based on the integration. i also beta tested m4l before its release so i had a decent idea of what to expect. i have NO regrets, despite any bugs that may be present. i've now worked on two pieces with quite complex beat composition that make use of m4l features and have had NO problems with either set. personally,... i remain quite satisfied with the experience so far

as an aside, this was not meant to turn into a thread. :wink: it is only a thank you for what I KNOW that I (ME, MYSELF and I) appreciate because I am sitting here using it without any difficulty for a few nights now...and getting ideas down and nearing completion.

You forgot one thing, mate: in a post-Wikipedia world, rhetorical questions no longer exist.
