I have been looking at the demo for Ableton Live and I have to say, I am pretty impressed. For a long time now I have used Cubebase because it came with an...
Correct, except for its sound quality is... ummm... unacceptably bad... and this is not as strong an expression as I'd like to use, just don't want to offend...
... I love Ableton, thats on my list for the future.. but when I had finally made my decision it was with FL Studio XXL w/ lifetime upgrades of course, Now v.8...
The earlier versions of Live had an interesting "feature" of defaulting to a 22K sample rate, no matter what you chose in your preferences- or at least it did...

Hi Eric, its been a while since I have seen any posts from you. I hope all is well with you and your music and synths. Yes, Ableton sounds ok to me. I guess...
I have come up with some design ideas for this. I thought of a rather simple design with two disks moving independently. I also found a web site with a basic...
... I agree, it is below what anyone really would like to have. Transients smeared, yes, I know that's part of the whole idea, but still, I think the real-time...
Hi group, Well, I just don't agree with the whole Live discussion here. I use Logic, ProTools HD and Ableton Live, all for various types of composing and audio...
Early versions of Live had a less than satisfactory sound engine but that was sorted 3 or 4 years back and has been improved upon with each update. It's now up...
I appreciate the advice here. Spending $500 is not something I do lightly. I like a lot of the features of Ablteon but I also care about sound quality. I...
Hi John, have you really tried Ableton Live? I mean in depth? I use Live6.0.10 and Reaper, energyXT 1.4.1 XT2 Tracktion3 I've use Cubase up to SX3 which I sold...
Hi, I use LIVE and Sonar PE about 50:50; since longtime. Live 6 did sound a bit crusty (but it had character!). Live 7 sounds great. My personal experiments...
Live is creative and different which I appreciate but I found it too different to get much done. I prefer Logic. However, Live is still quite useful for sample...
From what has been posted here, I can't see buying Ableton Live. It's a nice little tool but it does not seem like a full blown evirnoment for composing and...
Live can definitely be used as a full fledged DAW, John. I find myself lately working more in Live than in Sonar to be honest; it's a lot quicker for me to get...
Hi John, I own and use Cubase 4 and Logic Pro 8. Both on a Power Mac. Both programs are killer. And both programs have strengths and weaknesses. Both are great...
Right now I have just a PC so Logic Pro is out but when I do upgrade my music platform to a Mac I will use Logic Pro on the Mac. I plan on running dual...
I don't use either Logic or Cubase, but would hate to see a discussion like this without a mention of Digital Performer (http:// www.motu.com), which I have...
These threads are pretty silly, and pretty ubiquitous. Try it John and listen for yourself. This stuff is so very subjective and these sorts of endorsements...
To be honest, that is always what I have thought of DAWs. I never even realized that sound quality was an issue which I always though had more to do with the...
i have to humbly and meekly and respectfully agree: this IS utter bullshit. you have to know how to warp, and in what mode, and above all when NOT atomize your...
Regarding Live's sound quality, there's a whole lot of FUD spread by people with limited experience of Live. A classic faux pas is to warp tracks and then...
I hate to say it but Cubebase 4 is looking better and better to me. It has a lot of the features that I want you hate that ?? buy what you need !!! Cubase has...
Well, one thing I have noticed that looking at an arrangement seems easier to me in Cubase. Live's track view does not show me audio or MIDI. I suppose there...
I don't have a whole lot to contribute to this discussion, as I've used live more than anything else and can't really give much of a comparison. I will say...
