Ableton 9 seems to be a big step forward but the new website is a huge step backwards, completely wrong. The old website was so simple and good, simplicity is the word, easy to use, comfortable to your eyes. (please Ableton ask Apple what simplicity means in design)
Ableton is not an internet company and they should not try to have a 'funky' website, They develop an amazing software and that's where their focus should be, Ableton you don't need to have a great designed website, your website is used as a support to your users, as a platform, complimentary to your amazing software. I loved the simplicity of old website, easy to find the information you were looking for, like Ableton (software), the website must reflect the software concept, easy to use, easy to achieve whatever you want to do. The new website does not do that, it actually put's me away.
Please Ableton go back to your simplicity in terms of website, make it simple and pleasant again. You need a functional website rather than trying to have a cutting edge design. You can still keep this 'modern' website for products if you like but for your users, please save us.
