I would like to know how to change ableton live standard back to the old logo and non blue loading screen

That is my only complaint, the browser is great and changes to the meters are a good reference point.

Blue screen of death blue just looks odd, I don't understand the change/abandonment of logo.

does preview still stops as soon as you touch anything (including preview / cue volume knob) like it did in all the betas ?

i sure hope so! i am not touching live 9 with a long stick pole until this is fixed and it works like it always did prior to this release

still trying to download win 32 bit here. Its running at 32kb/s although the MFL 6.1 update downloaded at a reasonable speed. Their download servers have never been good but 32kb/s is horrible.

Have you noticed yet that it's only for factory content? Save a preset -> no preview.

Well that seems obvious. There can only be previews if someone took the trouble to generate and record a sample. And I don't need it for my own presets - I know what they sound like, coz I made them :)

impressed how fast my 3rd party plugins loading. AAR/KOntakt5, etc which took some time to load in v8.

but wait im really missing are the brown skins - the skins which are included are all to bright to work here.
any ideas on how to reskin it?
over copying isnt working - the file from v8 is smaller and i guess not supported.
