Unindentified 'E' button

Post by Magnuzoid » Tue Sep 09, 2014 8:30 pm

Hey all,
I've been wondering if anyone could tell me what button it is that Ableton is showing us in the reference manual, labeled "E".

Anybody? :)

The situation is dire, and time is running out. Which page of the manual is this elusive "E" ? I wouldn't know what to search for..."E"?

None of my VSTs show it in Live.

Actually, it's under section 17.3.2. Some of the pics have this E, some don't.

It stands for Electronic Money Transfer. Each time you click on it, you send money to Ableton via your account's preferred payment option.

Just realised it could be a button for one of the things Abletons never had that others do.

An Event button.

But who knows ? I'd really like an answer :)

Or something to do with external connections somehow since it's on a vst

It is a curious little button.

This is now my second favourite thread, being topped only by the best thread on the net, the 'NSFW: The unofficial "dhilsabeck posts a random pic"' thread, which is great on multiple levels.

Be careful around that button.
