If it was Ableton that lost their code then Live 7 would probably be better as a result.

what kind of magizine prints an article so vague as this anyway? thats like printing something like "we hear somebody famous died" and then leaving it at that so everyone can freak out.
It was as if someone shook up a 6 foot can of blood soda and suddenly popped the top.

Computer Music magazine.

Their reviews are mostly list of specs, their tutorials are mostly for people who've never written a tune before in their life and think music was invented by Paul Oakenfold... and they'll print pretty much everything in their news section.

The CD is a bit naff, too, with included samples being well into the 'I want to make something that sounds like last summer's biggest Ibiza/Gangsta/2-step hit"-territory.

Other than that, great mag.

This is undoubtlessly a load of rubbish. Unless the developer in question really is a bunch of amateurs in a bedroom.

Ableton surely must use an incremental backup/source control system such as 'Perforce'. Being a purely software company they would surely do offsite backups of their main product on a regular basis.

Plus every coder in the company would have a local copy of the source code on their machine in order that they could compile test builds.


So I call shenanigans on this lovely little rumour. Roll on Live7.
