Ableton Forum

Unless I'm missing this, I can't find the System Requirements for Live 10 listed anywhere, esp if it will be Win 7x64 Compatible. It isn't mentioned on https://www.ableton.com/en/live/ for example ...

Are these listed anywhere?

Coming shortly.

Correct ?
Minimum system requirements

Mac: OS X 10.11.6, Intel Core 2 Duo processor
PC: 64-bit Windows 7, 64-bit Intel or AMD multi-core processor
Intel Core i5 processor or faster recommended
4 GB RAM (8GB or more recommended)
Approx. 3GB disk space for the basic installation (8GB recommended)
5GB to 76GB disk space for additional sound content depending on version installed

Correct.

That's great thanks.

That's actually lame for me - on mavericks here and quite happy OSX 10.9.5

This is a very expensive and weak update from my perspective as a professional recordist and mixer - all I really want is the group feature and for the indexing to not suck the life out of every move I make, plus multiple audio track editing (not multiple midi track editing)

Plus you dont need new fx and synths as a power user - you have killer 3rd party plugs

bleh....Am I been supporting every update since Live 3

I just want some better functionality at a decent price...

yep, I feel the same...quite lame .. supporter since Live 2 ...

The system requirements for Live 10 on OSX are no different from Apple, they no longer support OS's earlier than 10.11.6 either. You can't expect Ableton to support it if Apple themselves won't support the OS anymore.

I wonder if support for the Ableton Push 1 will be lost in this update, or if new features will be added to it. I'd hate to have to get rid of a device that I've grown to appreciate, but I'm sure that Ableton won't pull a move like that.

Push 1 is definitely still supported and will be for a long time. Wouldn't do any good to donate all those Push 1 to school and music classes if people cound't use them a year or two later.

I agree with hardtoe. The group feature, indexing as well capture for power users is the only extra things we will get for upgrading. I just got the beta 10 and will be testing it out but from what i see those features i listed above are all i can look forward 2. I don't have a push 2. I have a push1 so those neat features on push 2 will not come in handy for me. They could easily make the indexing & grouping feature that all the other DAWs have had for a while they could make it for live 9. I love you ableton but other DAWs are 1 time pay and forever updatable as well. Fruity loops special synths are a huge draw right out the box. I paid 800 for this live 9 then another 400 for push 1 for an ableton user i don't think its 2 much 2 ask for the indexing feature and grouping feature to come 2 live 9. I know you need your money 2 keep making your DAW better and keep investing in your future but COME ON MAN, whats up with that. And i will have to upgrade to Sierra (which would be free) to use it on my mac. I use Yosemite because elcapitan is not available for download anymore. & i don't want to lose function of all my 3d party synths. All that being said, Ableton is a beast & i wouldn't change DAWs for ISH.

i got to say im a bit dissapointed; i see tarekiths point, but i personally know alot of working/touring producers that are still on 10.9.5. and im sure ableton is aware of that.

Same here, still on 10.10, and not planning to leave my rock solid live 9 for that !

Apple isn't supporting developers with OS X 10.9. With the choice of staying on an older OS — and there's nothing wrong with that — comes the side-effects, like you can't get the latest stuff. So what? Stay on 10.9 and the old software,and make music.

Personally, I believe there are good and valid reasons for stopping support for several years old OS versions at some point. It's not in line with how it used to be. Just a few years Ableton supported OS X 10.4, I think. But Ableton don't have total freedom when developing a new system. To support many major OS versions is very costly. I don't think many are prepared to pay even a bit of that cost.

Well sh*t!. I purchased the Live 10 upgrade when it was announced and just tried to install the beta on OS X 10.10.5. My own fault for not checking the requirements first but there is no way I'm upgrading my rock solid OS just to use Live 10 after reading horror stories about Firewire interfaces etc.
