Ableton Forum

Anyone know if Live 9 will support retina displays?

There won't be. I can confirm this because I just got my 13" Retina and the screen shots on Abe's webpage look all pix'laaaded and shiat.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not

I'm not. I'm genuinely stupid.

The CDM article said it's not supported.
Yet.

Would be fine but does it not fires too much CPU power?

I've had a reply from Ableton support "No retina support" !!

That is bad. Ableton Live looks close to awful on a 13" retina display. It actually looks so pixelated that it interferes and slows down my workflow

Return that shit!

if thats an actual picture of the rocket man I am kinda stoked.
It's taken some time, but his posts have grown on me.
seriously.

i Hope retina-support will come for the final version ... can't understand why they wouldn't support as the graphics already vectorbased

Apple sucks anyway, better bring touch support for WIN 8. You know something actually usefull.

FFS, really?

Anyone tried Low Resolution mode? Right-click, select Get Info, and see if that's checked. Or you could try changing the display's resolution, it's my understanding that 1280x800 on a Retina Display will look like the 1280x800 on the 13" MBP I have.

I realize then you lose that sexy sharpness on everything. There are menu bar apps out there that let you change on the fly pretty quickly, though.

You're right: because Apple sucks so bad that it would be RETARDED of Ableton to accommodate an obviously doomed technology that will not represent any kind of standard within five years of this morning at 2 pm. Fuck Apple and fuck improved resolution.

Yep, I ciuld get tha resolution 3 years ago in a desktop monitos, still hasent been implemented across the board, it's usefull only for games and photoshop, for audio? meh.

Touchscreen support on the other hand would be very usefull to control the program.
