Hi folks,
we just uploaded another beta version of the upcoming Live update/upgrade 5.2.
This beta is free for every user.
This beta 10 is marked as Release Candidate indicating we are now very close
to the final release of Live 5.2.
Because of the lack of available ReWire capable applications
and existing 2.4 VST plug-ins we still expect compatibility problems.
If we will run into these kind of problem we will take care for sure
but we also want to accommodate to the big numbers of users asking when the final
Live 5.2 will be released finally.
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
using the beta serial number provided on the beta website.
Check the beta website to download the version: www.ableton.com/beta
Please send all beta related feedback to beta@ableton.com.
Current version: Live 5.2b10
Expire date: 2006-04-10
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
information into the log file. Therefore the Windows version is a bit
slower as the final version (something between 5% to 15%).
When starting live 5.2b10 for the first time it should open with the Beta
lesson which also contains the change log.
Kind Regards,
Alex

Great! 
i just wanted to report a huge bug that i've found in all versions of L5, when i gave L5b10 a try and was surprised that the bug is fixed and was nowhere mentioned.
here's what i'm talking about:
put a sample in simpler and check the loop button. press any key and hold it. now, try to change the length of the loop and you'll see that nothing is happening. not until you press the key again. of course, you should've hear a changes of the loop length in real time.
although this bug is fixed in L5b10, i must say that this function works much smoother in L4.
well, i guess you can't have it all...
anyway, good work abes.

Hi daniel,

This is simply because Logic 7.2 does not yet support ReWire for the Intel based macs. But I assume it will come soon.Mactel Live with Logic 7.2 Rewired
