Hmmm

There probably should be an option to unerase aborted recording.

It's never happened to me though.

Loop recording would also be a lifesaver.

Abort and re-start is a beautiful thing.

I hope T2 turns out great, if not - I'll just keep T1 alongside Live4 (if that works as promised).

- T1 is still the most user friendly program for tracking - the only sequncer I can let my friends record me playing

think abort and restart - wow

Possibly the most user friendly program out there.Certianly the only sequencer that you could almost not need the manual to use.

Apparently Live 4 will now run up to 10% - 30% faster on a mac. Even the PC version will have a faster Live 4 engine.

From Ableton forum: "Please let us know about this MAC OPTIMIZATION because I have the latest 12' powerbook with a fast hd and lots of ram and my computer starts to glitch after about 6 or 7 tracks. - Please hook us mac lovers up."

If you say 10 - 30% altivec boost, and this dude says 6 - 7 tracks on a new Powerbook on live 3, I wouldnt worry about competing with Tracktion! its more like a great friend you can jam with!
:wink:

Either way I still think Live 4 and Tracktion will probably be the best combination out there although the inlcusion of midi features suggests Ableton disagree with this theory and clearly want Live 4 to be seen as the only application you need.

I hear Acid 5 may debut at the summer Namm event, I wonder if Tracktion 2 may make an apprearance as well?

If you are interested the Live 4 beta is now out.

I am interested to see how Live 4 has improved and how it might intergrate with Tracktion. I have a copy of the beta and will test it with Tracktion. Any other Tracktion users that have the beta let us know how you get on... :wink:

You need to have a copy of Live 3 already.

Live 4 Beta here..http://www.ableton.com/index.php?main=unlock

It's getting an large number of new features weekly, it's pretty damn stable, it has a modular environment, you can compose in a clip based fashion (even automation! :o), and if you are clever, you can compose midi with it LIVE (right now) and it's $40 cheaper.
Maybe so but it causes weird stops and glitches on my 1.1 Pentium M with 512 MB RAM and Win XP Pro and a Audiophile USB with excellent ASIO drivers... Tracktion doesn't cause things like that!

No offence to all you twiddle heads who like to re-route stuff.
Bit like anal sex really. Bits going where they were never supposed to but causing pleasure anyway.

Despite the fact that I'm porting some of the bastards (frae PC til Macoroni) I aint never used em!! If I'd spend half as much time doing music as I do on this ruddy foreskin, I mean forum, I'd be a bloody genius with several albums on the go!
