[S4racen]

Can it be true... hahahahahahaha!

Cheers

[condra]

if it is true... and if it's true what they said about having to "build live from scratch" to make it possible .... then expect a buggy-as-fuck Live 9 ..

[massenmedium]

As with any major changes you might expect some bugs with a big rewrite, but you should also get nice shiny efficient maintainable code, among the many benefits of which will be that sorting out bugs should be more straightforward. Bring it on, Able-ton.

Many Bothans died to bring us this information.

Awesome. LOL.

[andydes]

The most interesting thing about all this is we've not had the Abes come in to say something noncommittal as usual.

Hmmm....

even if it took them 3 years?

Yes, in my opinion, if they genuinely rebuilt Live from the ground up, there would be hundreds of bugs to get through.

I hope I'm wrong though.

I think they learned from Live 8. That's the whole reason they took so long with 9, I think this release will delight everyone in terms of stability and MUCH more than you see in that video.

[audiofeen]

Well the Live 8 code was really out of control so I hope they did a complete re-write this will make it more stable in the long run, yes there will be bugs like every software this is the world we live in.
Personally I possibly wont be upgrading for a while regardless of when it comes out because I think the updates in the past were way to expensive and i don't have the same income as i did 3 years ago, I hope the take that into account but thats just my opinion.

Now adding my 2 pennies worth.

Having used Cubase for years and been through their upgrades (always buggy, introduce loads of crap features and useless gimmicks) I love the fact that Ableton put so much emphasis on quality, usability, stability and workflow.

There's nothing worse than working on a song for weeks and then your machine crashes and destroys it all - and you didn't back it up.

This has never happened to me with Live.

I am happy to wait until it works properly - for me a few improvements to midi editing, making Sampler work with automation properly instead of using midi and full 64 bit support and I am happy.

But woe betide them if Bezier curves are not in there - I will surely commit suicide;-)

Ableton 9 really needs the following:

64 Nit Support

cpu usage?? in the video look high O:O

Damn, do you leave your pc on for weeks at a time without shutting down ableton????

I've spent most of my time using Sonar and before that Cubase. Ableton, as good as it seemed to be for myself, wasn't all it had professed to be (at least, not without having to pay for more instruments/max4live and so on. Then we have a haitus of a few years were Ableton do minor updates and little else. Live 9 is probably years over due and chances are, will be the last version...why? because they have taken to long to get their act in gear and now others are coming out strong and fast.

Also the lack of info/correspondence from Ableton and it's forum dwelling reps, really doesn't help things.

[andydes]

Chances are that releasing live 9 will sink ableton?

Wait? What?
