Live 8's new warping... good for you or bad for you?

tarekith, no more zooming? can you still grab the timeline and zoom?

i feel like you just told me my left arm is gone... not looking forward to that little change.

Also, dropping the warp marker right where you want it should be no prob cuz there is already one there marking a transient... right? or are there still sort of unmarked territories?

I 2nd that Live should find where the first down beat is. just make sense.
I frequently find it and "set 1.1.1 here" as my first thing so that's cool.

You can still zoom above the loop brace, it's just a much smaller target to mouse to, so i find it takes longer now.

Transient detection is a lot better than Live 7, but still not perfect. I find I still need to manually adjust almost all my warp markers when warping new songs. It's by no means automatic still.

i'm hoping your just experienced and awesome at warping w/Live 7 that Live 8 is not makin your day.

I didn't quite nail down an awesome (and predictable) process with warping, so i feel lucky i didn't spend time on it now that it's changed. And hopefully the average user can cope with the changes.

I like the new way better, but I mostly am editing smaller clips, not whole songs...
