Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?

good luck... hang in there... Live 9 isn't out yet, you've come too far to write it off, ride it out instead. just a little longer.
peace.

Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?
very poor decision not to start rewriting sooner, I think loads of people were expecting Live 9 to be the rewrite... I was almost certain it would be, the PDC problem indicates very little has actually changed. I mean this is the reason why someone like Bitwig with it's fresh code can quickly develop features that Live spent years developingze2be wrote:you might have it there. Old "clunky" code may very well be the reason. I remember they once said they needed to do a complete rewrite to get session automation done. Maybe they didnt make it in time due to all the Live 8 bug fixings after the release, and made sort of a workaround code for now. Its only speculations, but it does seem logical that they would rewrite the code for live 10. Especially if what you have herd is true. It sounds logical. Cubase did the same thing. Ive used cubase since 1990. SX was a complete rewrite. Cubase VST was a mess in the end.

enjoy dude. I have to wait a little longer but I also have to suspend hope due to beta evidenceH20nly wrote:good night... i just got a call from a friend across the street asking me if i want steak and lobster off his grill...

it would be amazing if Live could one day fulfill the promise of the expectations it set many years ago, but 10 major revisions to finish the core, bloody hell.
Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?
The Bitwig guys actually worked in Ableton HQ as programers, and quit just before live 8 was released. It has been speculated that they did so because they wanted a rewrite sooner then the company wanted. And so decided to have a go themself.sdfak1234 wrote:very poor decision not to start rewriting sooner, I think loads of people were expecting Live 9 to be the rewrite...

that's one hilarious bit of speculation!ze2be wrote:The Bitwig guys actually worked in Ableton HQ as programers, and quit just before live 8 was released. It has been speculated that they did so because they wanted a rewrite sooner then the company wanted. And so decided to have a go themself.
So,they left Ableton right at the start of the big Ableton bug fix/rewrite ... because they wanted to get on with rewriting? At the same time as Ableton were fixing the code, they also wanted to fix the code, so they ... left.
As theories go that's a pretty weird one!
I'd aim more for a theory like this one:
Ableton is now quite a large company, and they decided it would be way more fun to work small and nimble. To put in all the fun ideas they came up with, rather than run everything past a committee of every-damn-body. Also, they would be the bosses. So they started a small company, because it was more fun.
that's my theory. Based on people liking fun and adventure.

I am personally this angry about the LIVE 9 insult.
ABLETON LIVE being a "NON-PROFESSIONAL product NOT BEING FIXED"
It is Forum Fanboys blogging about how "SUPER DOOPER live 9 is.." that con new users into parting with cash.
In order for the BAD to be BAD it takes the GOOD to keep their mouth shut.
Ableton don't care about this or YOU, and they are not your mate
get it together
people have the right to be angry if they buy a faulty product.
I'm campaigning for a sticker on the box saying "PDC WARNING Live does not sequence all information in time" (any graphic designers out there )
I humbly suggest you realise this
"Plugin Delay compensation -PDC WARNING - Ableton Live 9 does not sequence all information correctly in time"
The bigger the project the more out of time it will be.

Midi editing features, super basic. New sounds and FX??? yawn, what a disgrace. The same app with one fixed feature (not a new feature) and more bloat on top. 3 years and to top it off this company thinks so little of us that we don't deserve any communication or dialog??? what kind of delusion is this? the dream/fantasy is over. wake up.
I'm a programmer myself, I run a software company and I could've rewritten Live on my own in 3 years. W.T.F.!
You know whats messed up too, I just assumed PDC was fixed and that would make this a great update because all the other features would work properly then, but the lack of core improvements just makes these new features look ridiculous.
I'm going to make sure this issue is at least addressed in publications when Live9 goes out for review, that should be easy enough.

Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?
if live 9 dont have an improved pdc, i will be very interested to see what the bitwig's creature will have to offer...and the price too..maybe a crossgrade offer if you use live ?
could you give me an advice ....coming from live... wich is the clearer and simpler/faster to learn and the more ergonomical to work with between studio one and reaper ?
and dont answer ..LIVE !!!

Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?
if behind the pdc problem is the ableton 's schyzophrenic positioning between the dj/live side of the soft and the producer side, IMho they must take a decision but NOW, for this version and they must communicate about their vision of live's future !

Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?
Everyone's seen this yeah?
Live has a so called "playthrough optimization" which disables the plugin delay compensation for all tracks that are record-ready or have the "Monitor" switch set to "IN". The reason is that we assume that you want to play a software instrument (or resp. monitor an audio input) with the lowest possible latency. In other words, you will only get the latency of your audio interface + the latency of the actual plugin device instead of the overall latency of the entire project.
You can disable the "playthrough optimization" with the option.txt entry:
-StrictDelayCompensation
This disables Live's play-through optimization.
When delay compensation is on, don't play-through optimize (favor exact sync over low latency).
For more info about the Option txt, please see:

TRY this
PDC
- Play some music
- jam some automation .......
- add a few plugs
- oh no everything is all out of time a rubbish
PDC take 2
- Play some music
- add a few plugs with tempo sync (like a filter with LFO)........
- add another plug before it...
- oh no everything is all out of time a rubbish

Re: LIVE 9 : PDC IMPROVED OR NOT ?
Hmm, interesting. But this seems to work for "monitor" and "in" only. Have you tried it? I also get huge latency on plugs and fx racks in sends.Ghost Mutt wrote:Live has a so called "playthrough optimization" which disables the plugin delay compensation for all tracks that are record-ready or have the "Monitor" switch set to "IN".
