Ableton Forum

Having had this happen to me, I know how devastating it is. But not to blame the victim: I sure hope it wasn't a situation where the car was in a relatively public place with interesting gear easily visible through the windows... It sounds like the victim was out of town. Thieves take note of cars t...

This is a perfect example that warrants a specific response.

Which is: "ugh"

I should stay far away from these threads, since I know arguing with certain people -- or even trying to be rational -- leads nowhere. But one comment I have to make: trust my ears.. but i´ve to admit.. i liked the alaising grain sound of the first versions.. ..than they tried to polish it up what w...

so you like a mixer that by default colors your material? :? just learn to use the tools in Live.. absolutely not... and that's part of the reason I don't use Reason... I like having ultimate control over everything, which is why I use near to none of other people's samples... but it becomes really...

the REAL TRUTH is that some people will post anything to get attention. What was the point of the first post in this thread if not that? Software applications like Live are hugely complex. There are countless tradeoffs and compromises that have to be made to balance performance, ease of use, audio q...

It also happens on my system. (Win XP Q6600 CPU). Scanning the library works but repairing stalls at 16% done and never continues. So I probably left the library in a corrupt state from which Live cannot repair itself. Tried a couple of times. In addition, I can't access many of the Lessons from the...

This issue is not always straightforward. We assume Live will be supported forever. What happens if (g*d forbid) Ableton shuts its doors and there is no longer a way to authorize the software you paid for? Because your system died and you have to buy a new one. Don't think this doesn't happen. I use...

I discovered some good stuff there. My favorite was Strojovna 07. They take submissions and only release stuff they think is worthy. I know since I submitted my stuff and it didn't make the cut.

More than just electronic tho.

...of selling nearly nothing. For some reason, I got a voucher from Google for their AdWords program. These are the little ads that come up on the right of search results if you use the Google SE. So I designed a target page, tried to figure out what keywords that people who might be interested in m...

As an amateur [l]user, I'm in a great position. Power users hold Ableton's feet to the fire and raise the bar extremely high in terms of their expectations of performance, stability and functionality. For people like me, an occasional bug or crash is no big deal, but for the pro or semi-pro it is. S...

arrggghhhh...!!! Angry rant excised. Geez man, it sounds like you need to dump Live and stick with the 100% working other software you refer to. And maybe take an anger management class while you're at it. Since all you're doing now is raging. The other thing I never see discussed is Mac vs Windows...

Even if only .5% of users have trouble, if you're one of them I realize you don't care that 99.5% of people have no problem. Particular if you are a professional Live user. I wonder if there is any correlation between the platform and the percentage of unhappy users? Not that I am suggesting a Mac u...

Meshuggah was one of the best things I heard on the Satellite Radio Metal channel (when I still had it). Other names I jotted down quickly (it's a bitch to try to drive and write at the same time were Devildriver and Shadows Fall.) Even tho I love the bangin, extreme metal vocals are hard to do with...

Anyone ever read "Under-Currents. The Hidden Wiring of Modern Music"? Wondered if it was worth picking up or not? Amazon says it's a collection or essays from The Wire Magazine which adds weight to it I think. I pick up the Wire occasionally and have to roll my eyes at many of the acts/ar...

You pack your own parachute too?
Do report on how it went. I hope it goes fantastic!
