Ableton Live 8.1
requires the following instruments:
Impulse
Operator
Sampler
PC or MAC compatible
Summary:
Magenta is a powerful electronic drum fusion of Blip Drums' world class electronic drum library and Ableton instruments and effects. Within Magenta is over 1000 original electronic drum samples categorized by drum type and instantly available via unique automatable "sample selector" knobs. For example, the bass drum pad has 127 bass drums that are accessible at any time simply by turning a knob. This allows freedom to explore drum sounds during play back without the hassle of loading external samples. In addition, automation of the sample selector knob allows you to automate sample changes on the fly. This is a mind blowing way to make drum beats! Each drum pad also has 7 designed control knobs that allow you to radically tweak and automate each of the 16 drum pads. This moves Magenta away from simply being a drum play back sampler to a powerfully effective drum synthesizer. The combination of Ableton's powerful instruments and effects combined with Blip Drums world class electronic drum library creates a stunning "go to" drum machine for today's eclectic mix of modern music.

Re: A new drum machine only for Ableton Live
Why make it for Live 8 only - you exclude a lot of people by doing that. I'm still on Live 7 as are a significant number of others who don't want to upgrade to the crashtastic Live 8 until the quality control that Gerhard and co themselves admit needs work, is resolved

If there's one thing I don't need it's more drums, but this does look pretty cool and tempting for the price.
Re: A new drum machine only for Ableton Live
Is there a good reason it's 8.1 only ?
Last time I asked a content provider that question, he ended up furnishing a live7 version.
and the crowd went wild

Even more important than being backward compatible: Can you guarantee its compatible with later versions of live?
Great initiative btw. If there is one thing I never can get enough of its drums.

Re: A new drum machine only for Ableton Live
It's a sad state of affairs when so many people are screaming for a version compatible with an older version of Live when the most recent version of Live has been out for over a year and nobody feels this is a retarded request.
As far as anything being compatible with future versions or revs of Live, really?? As unstable as Live may still be I've never heard of anything no longer being compatible with future versions unless it's bug related.

Re: A new drum machine only for Ableton Live
I can't guarantee that? How would I know what they do in future versions?
I don't know how well it's backward compatible as I created it in Live 8.1. I know some of the synthesis within it relies on custom waveforms in Operator. Everyone that tested it was in 8.1. I would be inclined to send a free link to someone who wants to test it in 7. I don't think it's backward compatible.

Why is this Suite only? Will it work if you don't own the Suite but do own Operator and Sampler?

Re: A new drum machine only for Ableton Live
It will work as long as you have Operator and Sampler. I should change that part as you don't actually need Suite.

"Years to come". Yeah, because Live is only updated to new versions after years and years, historically.H20nly wrote: @ guarantees for years to come on a 20 dollar product...

Also, yeah maybe I care about not paying for shit that doesnt work after a given time. I mean, wasting 20 bucks is wasting 20 bucks. (I still am irritated because I bought a VST on sale for 10 dollars, that turned out to be complete crap. I cant get myself to delete it, so its just wasting space, reminding me of its existence).
I've got no need for you to tell me how money works, as I've actually spent thousands of dollars on apps and sounds only the last year. So, go over consume, roll up smoke from a 20 dollar bill and throw half your hamburger because you know you can get a new one anyways. I dont care. I prefer to spend my money where its worth (an exclusion from this incredibly high moral of mine is when I'm purchasing alcohol or nicotine. Thats just on the "need" list).
And @ saulstokes: Ok then. If I were selling something I would say: "yeah, of course I will adapt it and tailor a new version in that case, to keep future and present customers happy", but thats just me.
Anyhow, I must have paid little attention earlier today, as I didnt see that you need Operator and Sampler. Well, that brought it just over 300 dollars instead of 20. Hehe. Think I'll have to wait until I get the suite or something.
PS: I probably would have paid the darn 20 bucks to get more drums, just for the record. It was more of a reaction to people asking about backward compatibility, as the future is more important than the past.
