Why Should I Upgrade from Live 1.5 ??

Post by EvilEvilEvilEvilEvil » Mon Dec 25, 2006 2:15 am

I just bought Live 1.5 last month and now I'm wondering what all this commotion is about the latest version.... My friends say "Evil, the latest upgrade is OH so worth it and it makes so much better the trance and techno."

I say "Friends... I am a man of great decisions and when I do something, it's for the good of humanity"


Is it really worth it or am I throwing my money away? Does Live 6 really make better for trance music?

Live is not good for Trance.

It excels at Happy Hardcore and Tribal House, but for Trance; it is pretty shitty.

Possibly for Garage Two-Step it might work; but Trance ... you need Fruity Loops.

Yes, for the love of God please upgrade to 6, it will keep you so busy learning all the new features, we'll all be spared at least a week of having to sort through your stupid freaking poll posts

Any software program is what you make it and how you use it - Live in the hands of an experienced user is just as good for trance as FL. Reason is another good tool and heck, I know people who solely use Cubase and get good results. If you know how to use Live you can make trance music easily if that's your thing...
