So I went to the Microsoft "longhorn" preview party last night and there were a buch of M-Audio people there and I overheard one of the head guys from Microsoft talking to one of the guys at m-audio about finalizing the acquisition of M-audio since they are doing so well.

Is Ableton owned by M-Audio?

Anyway... I hope that doesnt mean the end of Mac LIVE or M-Audio drivers for Mac...

perhaps this rumor has the same etheriness origins as the m-audio/n-i buyout rumor.

.... and Sidrak's 4th born child.

this indeed bodes well for ableton, live and all of its progeny.

let's stick to making music, not speculative nonsense.

just a thought...

i heard that ableton is actually built by some old bloke who lives on a barge just off the accrington viaduct.
but that old guy is actually the grandfather of the haidresser of the guy who runs apple.
i dont know if that means microsoft are gonna maudio or just that bananas are tastier than apples

I was hanging near Alpha Centauri a while back and I heard that Zortar the Supreme is acquiring a transdimensional string membrane inverter. Rumor has it that Zortar will then be able control the universe, or at least 1 of its 11 dimensions, not counting gravitational force since as everyone knows, gravity is comprised of circular strings that can travel through all 11 dimensions.
Don't say I didn't warn ya all.

don't be silly, Zortar doesn't have that kind of technology,

he couldn't keep a reign on the kinesians, he's barely discovered how to operate a lotherinnian cross-meld weapon.

Completely stuck on nanotrogan helix transfusion that guy.
