Live 6 is junk?

1/ the biggest problem is that Live6 creates little clips in the arranger which are not "zoomable" and cant be deleted, cant be consolidated but yet they split other clips in half. Which results in major headaches and frustration!!

2/ Sometimes after freezing and flattening, the new clips have clicks and pops at the beginning and ending of the clip. Even after freezing and immediatly flattening the track without editing the frozen track a bit!!

3/ when brwosing though wav files in the browser, my comp sometimes "hangs" but most of the time, Live doesnt play the audio file. I have to use the Win explorer to find sounds

4/ Live 6.03 and up creates clicks during rendering and is much heavier on the CPU

These problems do not only occure on my computer!!



What is the matter? At first Live 6 seemed way better and more reliable than Live 5 but it is the other way around. Live 6 screen redraw has improved but the rest is so much junk

I have this one, I've reported it before.
It's a serious editing bug, I agree.

browsing per se doesn't usually hang here, but searching takes forever and you can't do anything while it searches (as of 6.0.3), so it's pretty useless, yeah.

anyone else too?
