Ableton STUDIO

[G.D.Matteoni]

Hi all Abletonians!

Ableton Live is called like that because of a specific aim. Now the 80/90% of the future wishlist is about studio functions, but the program has to stay light for the live set use,and adding studio features means to get it heavy, complex, bigger...
I'm wondering why not to have an Ableton STUDIO and continue working on Ableton LIVE as two different softwares
What I see is that people doing live set (of every kind of music) is 90% on LIVE, but how many people with an Ableton licence is doing Live sets? For my expierience more than an half is producing and composing on LIVE and not playng live. And they are all asking for more studio features. And me too

For me at the moment the most important thing to solve, and I don't want to call it a new feature but maybe a bug fix issue is a full working Delay Compensation for plugs. That could be the firt really big incentivation to remain in Ableton till the end of the projects for a lot of works in my studio.
THEN to really make the Ableton platform a real alternative to Protools/Logic/Nuendo adding some other studio features like most people is asking in this forum section!

I don't know the implications of this (commercially for example) but this could be great!
But I think that Ableton don't want to compete with other "standart" softwares in studios like Logic and Pro Tools...
I guess that Ableton Live untill NOW is like a tool to use with other populars softwares not a substitute. I think that Ableton don't want to have an "all in one" software but just a tool for music production and live use, despite you can use it for recording, mixing... =(

But again, it would be great... something like we have now with the suite version...
