Again, why not search the forums and see what the word is on these products in Live??? You're not paying anyone's wages by buying an upgrade, you don't own the company or stocks, and you don't write paychecks. Ableton is very repsonsive and user-friendly--if you contact them with your issues (or find answers by searching here), they will try to help, though sometimes with third-party things, there's only so much Ableton can do--I know of past issues where they definitely contact and work with third party programmers to try to make their products work properly in Live. Again, no one forced you to get 5, you can presumably still work just fine in 4 or Cubase, get some music made with those. Surely over 90% of us here don't use either powercore or UAD--have you ever tried making music without these? Can you use the effects from these as simple vsteffect plugins in Live without utilizing these hardware devices? Your system specs should allow you to use tons of effects without cpu issues--the powercore and uad seem redundant with your specs--seems like these devices are targeted at powerbooks (which we know simply don't run live nearly as efficiently as pcs) and less powerful pc laptops where people run into effect processing issues and have to get a powercore or uad to be able to handle their effect/track counts. Just a thought.cane creek wrote:Powercores and UAD-1's are very popular products , you would think ableton would own these products and carry out tests before releasing a product.
He'll im the customer , i pay their wages , yet im supposed to test and then sit around for weeks waiting for solutions.

, as for the powercore that can go tomorrow , it sounds good but still its crap.
