Ableton Forum

The fonts are needed the most, just unbearable to squint at and read...
Making my eyes hurt... this should have been fixed with the official release...

Agreed, it looks awful.

Yes please, at least the fonts if nothing else.

I'm using the Retina 15" and haven't noticed any visual issues. Guess I'm too busy listening to the music.

Yes please retina support asap!

I recently bought Live9 and I can't understand how a brand like Ableton doesn't care of it or at least doesn't give enough explanations to calm us down during the waiting, because soon or later it has to be supported .

Sound is the goal but GUI matters too!

+1 !!!!!

-1000 don't bother trivial things before fundamental things.

It's true that sound related aspects like memory, buffers, effects, responsiveness,... are fundamentals, all right. BUT, since the GUI is the bridge we communicate through with our computers, definitely it will condition the way we compose/play our music. That said, everything matters then in the graphical interface, it's more than a cosmetic issue, but a creativity influence factor because one must be comfortable in the communication with our computers. Otherwise, if you loose your time finding that plug-in, that effect, editing that,... you increase the risk of loosing what you have in mind. Moreover, what I think is a fact is that every GUI of every software drives you to compose in certain ways, occluding others. Interface matters more than we are aware. Concretely I don't find many objects in Live's GUI are intuitive, for instance the way samples are organized in folders and presented, that way window-tabs are showed/hidden or other buttons that are mysterious at a first glance (maybe that's the reason why Live needs a helping window-tab explaining every object placing the cursor on it). To me these things about an intuitive GUI concern Ableton, but a readable and crisp interface (not blurry, not pixelated) is a fair complain/feedback we must do.
