a little rant

Post by Valogal » Tue Jun 03, 2025 12:05 pm

Ableton SUCKS! No matter how hard I try no sound comes out of my midi, I've tried everything and nothing works, also, why is the piano roll SO FRICKING TINY!? I CAN BARELY SEE THE NOTES! It's really a bad DAW, especially since it's unusable. I'll just stick to other DAWs, like seriously, I've had less difficulty understanding algebra! I thought that people just didn't use it and were hating on it as sort of a trend, but after trying it, it became apparent as to why people hate it. There is no way I'll ever come back to ableton, even if I get paid to use it.
P.S. I forgot to list other problems such as: crashing anytime I do something, it uses A LOT of CPU, after a while the sound doesn't come out anymore, the plugins (both stock and external) don't work , support sucks, The quantization doesn't work, the users act like they're some kind of gods and thrash on people when they use other DAWs instead of helping and it just generally sucks
