Live 4.0...I've seen the light!

I set up a template with 4 midi tracks and 6 audio tracks... Went into session view, and loaded some AUs, and just started recording clips (drum loop playing for time)... switching between midi tracks, and adding more drum loops to the audio tracks for variation... WOW! you can come up with some great stuff in a short amount of time! By adjusting the length of the midi clips to play in variations, it's downright amazing what you can do, and that's not even using any FX or envelopes... This program is downright scary in it's potential... I've been trying to fit it into my linear sequencer way of doing things, but really you have to forget convention and think differently... If you like a linear sequencer, try loading a drum loop in session view, and record clips into slots while the drums are playing... Very cool! The fact that you can so quickly alter the midi clips, even is session view, is just awesome! Really, it works as well with midi as audio, and this is a beta... I'm amazed!

Not laughing at you, DHR53, but at the fact that a few years ago it was exactly the opposite.
I remember very well how it took me some time to forget the convention of pattern based sequencing (read: Session View, then Notator/Creator) and think differently to get used to the linear sequencer way of doing things...

Not sure if this is common knowledge:r_module wrote:live4 and reaktor4 are like adam & eve in the audio-software's paradise.
The programmer of Live is the exact same person who initially programmed Reaktor, before he left the boat (NI) to do something 'different'.

exactly the same here (NOTHING grooved/still grooves like Notator/1040ST) and it took me years to get used to that linear cubase style. Thats why i never used Steinys Pro24 but Notator instead. Jeez this was around 1988/89 or something....

I started with pro24 and then moved to Notator - pro24 was another completely different way of working - in fact it took me a while to get used to Notator's pattern system
