Ableton Forum

Hello,

The current beta version of Live is 8.1.5b2

OS X: http://downloads.ableton.com/software/8 ... _815b2.dmg
Windows: http://downloads.ableton.com/software/8 ... _815b2.zip

Just a reminder that nowadays beta versions are optimized the same as release version, so they should perform exactly the same as release version. Also, beta versions don't expire anymore.

Kind regards,
Amaury

Bugfixes

- Unwarped clips could be placed incorrectly after opening a Live set, if the set was saved after changing the global tempo without first confirming the change with the Enter key or by clicking somewhere else in the interface.

- Fixed a visual bug that made MIDI clips all black, while recording, before the first note was input.

- Fixed a crash when observing 'has_stop_button' of a GroupTrackSlot via M4L GroupTrackSlot.

- Fixed a crash that occurred when loading a Group preset containing an AU plugin that is missing.

- Fixed a crash that could occur with clips warped in Beats mode, Transients and back and forth envelope settings, when the loop extends outside the sample data.

- Fixed a bug where typing a tempo in the BPM field of a warped clip would give a slightly wrong number (i.e. you type "100" and "100.0001" gets entered", which led to some neutrality problems.

- Various other stability improvements.

has this been updated as of the 22nd, or is this the same version that live 8.1.5b1 detected yesterday?

Hi,

It is the same version that you got from the "check for updates" yesterday. I was late posting the forum message.

lol and here I just got around to finally installing 8.1.5b1 last night It never made it to checking for updates, though, because a plugin crashed it and I never got back to it.

does this b2 stil have the dialog box that appears on load, and sometimes gets hidden behind Live and generally causes me headaches trying to find out why I can't click anything on the GUI?

@timothyallan

Yes.

it's a very good update for me ...

hmmmm!? Wheres the Change Log!

Where's the changelog, for that matter?

IK multimedia T-racks 3 plugs still causing crashes - I've sent dozens of bug reports through every version since 8.09. These are quite popular plug-ins - why can't you fix this issue?

@whitebox.......whats your setup? I use T-Racks on my G5 without any problems? maybe it another plugin that courses the crashes?...

kind regards

I've had problems with T-Racks plugs in other situations as well, I wouldn't lay this one completely on Ableton.

The last version of VSTs would crash Kore2 when opened, the AUs worked fine.

They just released a new version and the VSTs seem to work fine but the AU's caused Kore to do something funky.

*shrug*

OSX 10.6.4 Snow Leopard 2007 Macbook. It's definately T-racks singles VST - maybe I'll try the AU versions.
