You're right. Might've been a v2 thing? I didn't actually get to use v1.5 a lot, as v2 was out as a download when I got the box.

Also, ?s??

See it like this: No one learns our language because it is so f****ng difficult that not only the dumb ones will fail...

Yes, might be right. I am glad I did not have to learn german at school like in some not-native-german-speaking countries.

What I wanted to say is no one learns just from such "you cannot speak that language" comments!!!
I put this in my signature, so people can just tell me how I say it correctly and everything is fine (for me). Anything else is not useful for anyone!

I know, Makro, I know...

(you've been much more polite than me - though my words were dressed in cute clothes of irony)

Here's a little study in English:

"A gnat is able to live one year."

"I've got Ableton Live 1 here."

Did v1 even have time-stretching?

I came on at v2....just beats mode IIRC.

It certainly had beats mode from day 1, don't remember if it had repitch.

Thats nice
But isn't the Abes Live pronounced like "life", and the one with the gnat like in "living"?

I guess the thread title should be "What was Live 1 like?". Better?

The oldest (somehow) working version of Live:

haha this really looks like centuries ago..yet I fell in love with it from day one

Excellent.
Robert wins by a long way!

true dat. i think there's something deeply hypocritical about coming on a message board for german company and ragging on people's command of english.

i want robert henke's live. the should release it as live lite redux or something.

+1 Live Hyperlite Anniversary Edition.

I still have Live 2 on an old Mac G4 in my studio. and recently i dived into some old stuff i made with it.
it's fun to look back once in a while, but actually I've enjoyed every upgrade and new edition, because now, as I'm playing around with Live 8 beta, i realise that Ableton fulfilled almost all of my wishes as a producer and live-musician.
back in the days i could use Live only next to hardware (MPC, synths) and/or other programs like Logic. and Live 2 definitely sounds 'old skool' (and lo-fi) compared to Live 7/8. There's something to that too, personally i'm really glad with the way Live has evolved!
