The first major problems with live that i've found with live so far:

1) No crossfades on individual tracks. Im produceing my entire CD in live (I'll post some of it later) and i have a rainstorm track that im useing. I want to use the thunder from this 30 min. rain track, but the crashes are fiew and far between. I cut out the thunder i want, but the rain changes abruptly. I'd like to be able to fade two clips together on one track without messing with envelopes.

2) The peak indicater on the master fader does not stay lit. When I'm useing Pro Tools, the peak indicaters on all the tracks stay lit until you click them. I would like to know if my mix is cliping without siting and stareing at it. (There may be an easy way to fix this - or any of these - problems I just cant find it)

3) I've seen some other posts about this, but its still a problem. You cant copy/paste tracks, fx, or plugins.

Any help would be funtaz tick.

Thanks.

Maybe not what tou want but one way of fading the things in would be to make clips in session, isolate the parts you want to fade in and drag them into Simpler (many Simplers that could be). By adjusting attack and release you would probably be able to get a good result.
Or: produce a consolidated clip where all the parts you want to fade in are collected, put in simpler as above, but dynamicly change the start position/length in Simpler to play only the portion you want at different places in the track.
