Ableton Forum

I'm not fussed to be honest, quite happy with Live 8 at the moment. Very happy in fact.

Having said that, I'll probably upgrade when a new version is released, but I'm in no hurry.

Sporkles what do you guys mean by rougher?

Try a bass note on C then a semitone lower B. Which is rougher? If C then your rooms/studio needs some treatment.

Sporkles is quoting another poster (d-track) who posted this nonsense reply in a thread I started a while back.

Just looking for the truth if there is any to the statement.

There is not.

It interested me because its easy to tell if the space is dead by clapping your hands. So what the hell is rougher?

after what Apple just did to logic 9 .....I would say lower the price

Any of you guys use Reason? Over at the Props forum you always see the same kind of wishlists...they finally added audio recording...but they've stuck to their guns otherwise and seem to be doing OK.

If I really wanted multiple zoomable windows on multiple screens and user-definable everything up the wazoo, there's always Cubase, Logic,Reaper, etc. I've used a few of them and chose Live because I wanted something simpler and more intuitive.

The only thing I'd like to see is better use of multicore processing and real MIDI editing.

I'd like a date of release. After the holidays I want to upgrade from lite. What I don't want to do is fork over a bunch of cash only to have 9 released and then more cash. As a single dad I have only a few vices. I'd like to really work on some music in 2012 and I have to spend wisely.

Personally i don't need any big change especially on the workflow. My opinion is that Live is a special daw and i like it as is. And i hope with all my heart that they don't spend precious resources developing hardware cause now is being deloped from Akai and Novation so 2 of the best companies in the game offering at least 3 wonderful controllers, and i didn't mention faderfox and all the touchscreen ones!

Dark side:
-the reverb is horrible
-sampler got a really small library compared to other samplers
-stability should be the number one priority (but i can't complain about it)

More empahsis on production and less on "DJing", if your "DJing" using ableton then your not a DJ, simple as that.

i dont think the reverb is all that horrible, its works for some things, i wouldnt use it vocals, but its cpu-friendly for drum tracks and synths.

I have used it on vocals and it's not that terrible. Something I found myself liking it.

By the way, why are the maschine performance videos on youtube are all crap except Jeremy's? All loop boring ryhthm forever.
