Re: Post your Live 9 upgrade path and price
Thanks - I will do, I even posted earlier on this thread saying that it is better to purchase now at the lower price.
I should have just done the online shopping at work.

Re: Post your Live 9 upgrade path and price
I was content with my upgrade pricing, so I made my purchase last night. Apparently, a good choice.

Re: Post your Live 9 upgrade path and price
i have 2 licenses now - live lite 8 and live 8 suite (boxed). upgrade prices listed on "shop" section are (in USD)
live 8 lite to live 8+9 suite $472 download and $562 boxed.
live 8 suite to live 8+9 suite $524 download and $637 boxed.
seems to me that the live 8 suite "upgrade" price should simply say "not applicable" because there is not yet anything to upgrade.
on the "Live" tab of the web site, it says upgrade to live 9 suite $299 coming soon. (something like $150 or $200 is more what i expected for suite 8 to suite 9)
i'm really hoping for a great deal where the push is bundled with a very cheap or free upgrade to live 9 suite for existing suite 8 owners.
seems the key for suite 8 owners is to just wait until 9 is released. not sure why that would be a problem for anyone, though i do agree that ableton did a piss poor job by making that upgrade path pricing clear as mud.

U.S. : Suite 8 Owner : Upgrade to Live 9 Suite. $299.00

I understand better now!
as an owner of suite 8 and m4l I'll probably go for 9 standard. I'll keep all extra instruments that will be part of 9 suite!

Re: Post your Live 9 upgrade path and price
Live 8 Suite here. EUR 249 to the same Live 9 Suite.
When that happens I'll have more than I need to make music.
Initially I did not buy M4L but being included I fancy it as a nice addition that in the future
could give me more and more especially on MIDI manipulation and my VG99 + GK2 Guitar setup.
Waiting for it.

Ok good news, i have made the same complain but have not yet received an answer.enomusic wrote:By the way, I sent a note to Ableton regarding the upgrade price for Suite 8 + M4L users, they said:
"Regarding the pricing, please know that existing Suite 8 owners will be offered an exclusive introductory discount on upgrades to Live 9 Suite, to be made available upon release. This introductory discount is not yet shown on the website, as Live 9 Suite is not yet available."
So, I have faith that they will do us right, I also hope they have mercy as I'm interested on buying the Push upgrade bundle which currently shows up on my account as $789.00 Ouch!!!!

Re: Post your Live 9 upgrade path and price
I got a response, they apologized but no correction to the price in my case. If you get a similar response, just email them back. It helps, usually with good companies.cchasson wrote:Ok good news, i have made the same complain but have not yet received an answer.enomusic wrote:By the way, I sent a note to Ableton regarding the upgrade price for Suite 8 + M4L users, they said:

Four times as many pads as Maschine too.ShelLuser wrote:It is too expensive for me, but I don't think Push has been overly priced or so...
Re: Post your Live 9 upgrade path and price
THis biggest win/win with the upgrades is PUSH is optional
You can upgrade without it and still enjoy 9 and probably even the step sequencer as I imagine that to be a device or a max for live device.
Get Push later if you want it later
Now there's a point.. I wonder what Live 9 without Push to live 9 with Push upgrade price will be? Probably not much in it as it only comes with Intro so your paying mostly for controller only

As far as I know, push step sequences notes directly into live clips, not a Max for Live device. Live clips are infinitely better sequencers than sequencer devices anyways.Nav wrote:THis biggest win/win with the upgrades is PUSH is optional
