Yeah a hotkey to switch it on and off would really rock...

Plus, if you had this feature enabled, you *could* mute the track I would hope, or if there is something else playing in the track already it wouldn't play the input midi notes perhaps...

I really need this functionality and I am very disappointed that it was not implemented in 4.1. It's been a month or so since I have tried to comp anything new midiwise in Live. I n fact I have actually stopped using Live as comping host and have not been inspired to take Live projects any further than sketch phase or a weird sound science experiment. I'm losing interest in Live as a audio looping tool also- audio looping getting stale. Add this to the fact that Operator is a complete bust for me - being rather an unexciting synth clone that only works in Live :roll: I already have z3ta+, Sytrus, Symptohm, Cameleon5000 and Phantom which run in various hosts. It seems to me that the once brilliant Abeltons are losing their way.

Regretfully

no doubt that a lot of cubase and logic heads will convert to live, only if that will happen... :cry:

honestly... i have just come back from a trip to the UK where i was showing off live4 to many producer friends of mine.. and every single one of them (all logic PC users, btw) loved it and ready to give it a go as their main sequencer until they came across the NO midi note preview bit.
simply ends the converstaion dead. having been on live since 4 came out, i am now going back to logic until this is sorted out. love live, but need this feature... let me know when it happens fellas....

Vital option!

Must have midi note preview and drag and drop.
