Have a headache? I'm just seeing posting after posting about PDC problems. The solution is simple, use another DAW.

as if this was the only solution. The point of this thread is to get Ableton to fix it. This is a basic, rudimentary, easy to understand concept, have you never seen a support forum before? I like your attitude, just take what you're given and shut up... You can do this all you like, I have my own ideas and they're better than yours.

Also if Ableton had owned up to the fact that they werent gonna fix it, maybe we'd have been using another DAW 2 years ago.

you never had a problem with Live until someone else pointed out a problem to you. you're using the interweb and not your ears.

No headache. Embarassed for you actually.
Seems you have unnecessary worries on your mind, then. Spend more time doing music, instead.

I dont even know why im getting into this but this so off the mark its insane. Put simply Ableton is not fine for collage related clip assembly if you use automation at all AND this automation issue is there regardless of the 'heaviness' or complexity of a track. Biggest misunderstanding of them all is that this issue somehow only affects people doing complex stuff. It just gets worse if your material is complex. Precision can be lost on the most basic project. Also to state the obvious I have already jumped ship to Cubase, thank you ever so much for your expert opinion but look at my most recent posts.
I must confess I've used Live since 2.1 days and I yet have to remember a case where PDC issues hit one of my projects. Then again I don't make complex plug-in sequences in Live, rather using the built-in ones as I use Live as an assembly tool and not as my main DAW where the short fallings from other parts of the app would cause grief (and I don't like grief in my studio, I rather make music.) I still think Ableton should have continued making this the ultimate live instrument, they went down the DAW route and that's now biting them.

it could also be that you did something in Live and it didn't sound good so you undid it.

Tone Deft Ive already come to the conclusion that you are mentally retarded so I dont know why Im replying to you but I can assure you this will be the very last piece of energy I waste on the likes of you.

You're wrong. You're a fool and you know nothing, plz dont communicate with me again.

OK. If you think that's a logical way to discuss a technical issue, that's fine for me.

Yes, you are an unneccessary worry for me. I would ask please dont tell me what to do. I'll make music when I feel like it, if I want to sit on here bitching about PDC I will, in my opinion this is completely justified and Im sorry, seriously no offence, but your opinion means very little to me, maybe if you made some interesting contribution to this thread...

There is no logic or technicality in these posts. Please dont waste our time. Logical discussion. Technical. Ha.

Also nobody was discussing anything with you. I was speaking specifically to Ableton's ultimate agonist. If you want to have a discussion, read the thread dont just jump in blurting out the first thing in your head. There was NOTHING logical about your post in the context of this thread and Tone is just a wanker, no logic needed there.

Just by this reply, you indicate in several ways that you don't grasp this problem properly. 1) a lot of users have written on this thread (including myself) that they were unaware of the PDC automation issue, it is easy to miss especially if 2) you don't use complex plugin sequences, the scale of the plugin sequence makes it more or less NOTICABLE, it is still there whether you noticed it or not and it's still there at the most basic level. 3) built in plugins have the exact same problem 4) it is a problem for live use as well.

Hmm. This is indeed an interesting discussion about PDC and Ableton Live.
