Installation nickel chrome with no trouble.
By the start against ds I had a problem of "run time error" launched prevent the software from running. In fact this problem of my configuration silent audio and my ASIO sound card conflicted with the sound of my PC chipsset. Deactivation of the audio chipset in the hardware configuration of windows has resolved this problem.

The software activation is automatic and the update.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Live I use a laptop clocked 1.7 ghz and 1.5 gig of RAM. Audio is provided by a PCMCIA card Echo Indigo I / O. It is super stable and I have not encountered the problem of crash. latency shows the software with this config = 5.5 ms.
cot performance seems a very honorable: the largest of the demos did not exceed 30% of CPU resources ..

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 8 days with happiness .. Coming from Sonar and Reason I won t the downloadable demo Ds the beginning ... what is striking is the ergonomics program. Everything is visible in the main window. Minimalist graphics, as opposed to a Reason, the software Confre a certain class, but also makes it more readable. The help system is simply exceptional score to each element of a program with your mouse a description appears in a window dedicates, which can mask or not. There are many tutorials a built-Quick

Live 6 is intended to be a standalone program. It yrussit but at the cost of some sacrifices: no MIDI out to the hardware equipment (which should be corrected in the next version.).

And then the big disappointment: only two instruments provided by Zetes who are readers of samples in which a ddi drums .. Of course with Ableton Live provides its other virtual instruments, but only in demo mode (a synth "operator" + a sampler.). To have fully functional you will just have to pay .... A note in passing that the activation of the demo mode of one or two instruments is all the software in demo mode and you can not save anything for your project, even if you do not use these instruments. Brief has a soft 500 euros is a bit light ...
This time the ratio price quality takes a hit, because for a full LIVE 6 has all of the same amounts over 700 euros ....
