It's been about a year since Live came out, so 2.0 would be a logical move. I doubt that VSTi support will be part of it, judging from the statements made by various Abletonvolks - unless they were misleading us.

Perhaps it'll be a beta of 2.0...

Maybe it will be a new skin release!

I hope it'll be something a *little* more than that!

:wink:

Well, I just hope we get some or all of the following:

-- sound quality bug fixes
-- more flexible sound I/O routing options
-- multiple sound adapter support
-- performance increases in plug-ins and Live environment
-- bug fixes in plug-ins
-- VSTi hosting would be nice but not essential
-- little usability detail enhancements with file management through Live environment and menus
-- bug fixes with Rewire clients
-- MP3 import would be nice but not essential
-- bug fixes with OS X compatibility (bundle handling)
-- 'memory' of plug-in states
-- timestretching algorithm quality improvements and ability to disable beat-matching and stretching
-- ability to control clip parameters (transpose, etc.), tempo, and other object attributes not currently controllable, using keyboard or MIDI events
-- RAM caching of sound clips to reduce hard drive I/O
-- template management
-- AppleScript support (or internal scripting support, or "MIDI" clips that fire scripted events on periodic basis)

All of that, plus a set of new skins, may take some time.

It hasn't been a few months yet since 1.5, so if 2.0 is around the corner, then they must have really been busy.

Here's hoping 2.0 rocks...

ok, I need to add something important...

full compatibility with the emi 2-6 audio device... (under xp)

(If you want to use latencies under 20 ms you need to create a "liveoptions.txt" file etc... in other audio apps there are no problems )

AES is coming in the first week of October.... I assume Ableton will be there...

...i'd be happy with midi timecode/midi sync information being sent to the vst effects plugins....

...and the ability to load sounds into memory instead of disk streaming...

other than that, live is pretty much where i want it to be.

good job, guys [and girls]

Just thought of something:

It would be cool if all the .asd files could be kept in a separate folder.

what did they reveal?
