If you properly rehearsed your set ad nauseum before the show, and there were no issues, Live doesn't suddenly decide to say "HEY, I'M GOING TO FUCK UP FOR JAMIEF'S SHOW TONIGHT BECAUSE HE'S A TWAT!"
I know everyone loves to believe that shit, but it's rubbish.
Something happened. Either you didn't properly rehearse the set, or you did something to your machine/specs/soundcard/etcetcetcetc between the successful rehearsals and showtime.

Yes, the issue remains. But artists must work with the tools they are given, no?

Seriously the quality of discussion in this thread and its emotional tone is not good for the furthering of this problem.
its like fuckin burn the witch burn the witch
And its tough to say "he should have know better". "the software should have worked" would be the reply.
But still, if it crashes before you do a show... And you still proceed to do the show, you're really gambling. And he lost.
You're upset about the state of this discussion, but what is there to discuss?
The quality of Live 8 is bad enough for Ableton to call it bad.
In the end Live 8 should come out of it as the most stable Live version ever. That is pretty much their promise and goal. They all returned from NAMM, I bet we'll hear more in the next weeks about what they actually plan to do that is different from how they tested before.

Are we supposed to quit buying Hondas because our neighbor failed to buy new tires and crashed his Honda?
Are we supposed to not cook because the old lady across the street keeps spilling oil and lighting her stove on fire?
Are we supposed to hate on Live because it won't work for some other user in another scenario that by its very definition does not spell Professional?
What are you trying to prove???
- If it happens to Kenny it can happen to anybody?
- Live is bad. um-kay?
- We should all be mad?
- Patience is not a virtue fuck Ableton's announcements?

Re: Ableton HQ please read
As usual there is a lot of silly stuff going on here at the ableton board. Mac vs PC vs whatever. Ill not participate in that, but Kenny's comment I will make an observation about.
I know most of the first through 3rd wave guys from Detroit. I was part of that crew and I can telly you some of them are not technically very savvy when it comes to software. Many are just NOW moving over after being "Hardware until I die" types, but the reality of international travel puts a squeeze on a lot of that type of thing.
Kenny was just saying the same thing about Traktor a few months ago, crashing and complaining on facebook, etc. All I hear form this is that someone is not doing maintenance on their machine. Not running scripts and if you a touring DJ & use the internal hard drive (like I do) you have to defrag your machine (no matter what anyone else may say in the mac community). I have almost every Mac I have ever owned from around the year 2000 to now. They have been from Detroit to Scotland to my home now in Tokyo. All still work, systems running, hardware beaten but still working fine. So I really have to question people bitching about software not working properly & blaming Ableton for their possible lack of knowledge when it comes to setting up a machine for touring. Because he is a respected producer he should be a bit more tactful when bad mouthing Ableton or any other software company until he is sure that the fault is with the software and not user error.
I'm just saying.... Claude Young

Re: Ableton HQ please read
hold up, jamief is a pretty mellow poster, cut the guy some slack.
but saying that, I'm on the Beats Me band wagon. it was the promoter that got screwed that night, he hired a PROFESSIONAL. hopefully the performer learned a lesson to beat the hell out of his set beforehand and then treat it like it like, well, his life depends on it.

try using that analogy with Toyota. on Morning Edition this morning there was a story on how HALF the inventory was unsellable and people were returning their Toyotas. some guy bought one for his wife, she refuses to drive it now he's stuck with her 'secretary car' that he hates. Ford is also offering incentives to people that trade in their Toyotas.H20nly wrote:yeah, but the witch is Ableton and you're the one throwing salt on its wounds.jamief wrote:Seriously the quality of discussion in this thread and its emotional tone is not good for the furthering of this problem.

I have a similar experience but I've come to realize that there are BILLIONS of ways to use Live, we don't all use it the same and nobody uses ALL the features, commands, keystrokes and operations Live can do. every year the user base grows, so, proportionately the users with bad experiences will grow and there will be many that have no problems.Donnie wrote:I dont care who you are, if a program is not running right why the hell would you bring it on stage? I dont see what a name drop proves except the fact that he should have known better. Real men of genius right there.
I must have the midas touch or something, cause ive had maybe one or two crashes since live 8 came out. Seems all my buddies with the macs are the ones having problems. Not saying that to debate either, but I have to admit it does give me a chuckle everytime I see someone play that card.
