On Windows and OS X (Power-PC) you can unlock this beta with your
Live 5 serial number.
On OS X (Intel) or if you do not own Live 5 you can unlock this beta version

Current version: Live 5.2b5

This beta versions has these limitations:
- No manual is included
- No content is included
- No japanese language support is included
This version has enabled our bug reporter.
You will notice it when restarting Live after experiencing a crash.
Furthermore the Windows version has additional debug code to dump

slower as the final version (something between 5% to 15%).
When starting live 5.2b5 for the first time it should open with the Beta
lesson which also contains the change log.
Kind Regards,
Alex

ive had this with b4 and b5.
i've managed to get a bluescreen. a direct reset. first with b4 whilst consolidating one wavefile, with a copy of itself. nothing new there, just a simple consolidate of a beat. instant bluescreen, reset.
upon reload after restarting, ableton crashes.
b5, i had worked on final finishing a rmx for about 30-45minutes without saving, and went to save, just in case, you know. bluescreen with something saying IRQ.
thankfully b4 and b5 havent given the previous (4 + 5.0.2 + 5.0.3) performance, i.e., sometimes upon loading a lot of wavefiles into a song, and saving the song, upon reload, some of the samples are either not read in (i use hi-q, and RAM - and the only way to get these samples to reload properly (and completely) is to edit them with a editor, and save a say 99% volume version of the wavefile and then ableton will load them properly), they are not read in, in such a way, that either you will hear the first half-beat, or first vowel of the wavefile, and then a loop, kind of like a buffer overrun, but THE BEST THING IS THAT THIS IS NORMALLY ACCOMPANIED BY WHITENOISE CRASHES AT FULL VOLUME. THIS IS UPON REPLAY OF A ON-DISK WAVEFILE.
i really hope 5.2 will coincide with the release of the novation automap.

Ah thanks for that, as it is(5.02) it's unusable, it either make my set crash on re-opening or it just does not store its settings when closing a project. It's one deadly little synth though, its got that Stasis, Pure Plastic sound down to a T. I'm not beta testing but I hope you get it right with this lads.
