Hello all, here's two things that I'd love in Live: The ability for Live to automatically find your soundcard if it is plugged in. It's only a minor gripe, but I get sick of constantly switching the i/o manually on bootup... when it could simply see if you have it plugged in, and if not, use the built in i/o ...

that, and I'd love to be able to trigger video in the session view. That would be wonderful.

Other than that, it's basically the best software on earth.

Cheers!

What if you have two audio interfaces?

i would like Live to do my taxes and automatically pay my bills.

it already finds my interface though - every time. i turn on the computer and interface... doesn't matter which one first. then i launch Live. when i hit play on a set with content... music comes out... or audio... one of those.

maybe it's a bug.

I have to keep changing between the build in I/O and my Duet interface, I didn't mind it.... it takes 5 sec to change the interface setting but we all spend at least 2 hours or more everyday playing/making music right.

is this a Mac thing? if it's Windows let me know. i can tell you how to stop it. having said that; Live just yoinks my last interface... which ever it was and plays that. change, if needed - takes less than a minute. simple enough. no?
