Live 5 adds Holo-Sasha™ help functionality to assist you with all your musical, and non-musical questions.

"right-click context menus for most functions and use a count-in for recording"

great! patch-management is highly welcome as well!

as much as i love live4, im quite disappointed with the fact abletoneans are still not friendly to TV/Film composers.. there`s still no Video support. I had to make a video commercial with my calculator as i had to analyse the time for a particular scene and then compose it in live. it was hard but i had no other option as i never have the ease and fun composing in any software sequencer other than live4.

my only hope is ableton will give us, TV/film composers, some thing to cheer for in their live 5`s first update at least and make us buy it because im not really enthused to buy the 5th version of live even though it has some mind boggling features to boast.

actually, the new improvements to the arrange view - markers, and midi remotable jumps between them to name a few - are a huge deal when dealing with video. Add the FL+video plugin for 83$, and you've got yourself quite a video beast

Also, a lot of sound designers can't live without their convolution reverbs, and now pdc will make them happy as well!

fl+ ? fruityloops ?

i never knew fl can act as a concealed video plugin for live. but, will the video go in sync with the sequencer in live? i mean can i pause, rewind and forward both simultaneously ? and how many kinds of video files can it support ?

It plays just about any file I throw at it, so I think it depends on the codecs you have installed - and yes, perfect sync, jump back and forth, no problems on my machine at least.

nice, looks good. so we can also load in big videos as well ? talking of more than 2 hours of film in it .... just curious, i think you know why im so curious...

Impressive. It finally looks like I could be using this as the ultimate DJ tool.

This is really good...

Is that PDC only for Ableton effects, or also for VST's?
