I also run Reason 2.5; these guys are as tight as a frogs arse when it comes to code.
I am hoping that Ableton will follow Propellorheads and refine this problem. Let's hope that it doesn't end up the Windows of the Audio world.

I must say I hope for less cpu usage as well. One instance of Ozone knocks Live 3 to almost 50% on a 2.8ghz machine with 1gb of ram. Two instances are simply not possible.

Ozone isn't really made as a "Live" plugin, but is a mastering plugin.

True but I used Ozone as a simple test. The amount of cpu it uses ensures there is little scope for any other use in Live but as a mastering plug. Even Sonar can only manage about 4 - 5 instances again just as a test.

I think the effects that come with Live a very good anyway. I can use up to 20 effects before things start to slow down.

less cpu usage..

less cpu usage..

Definitely 2nd that
