- Installation is it without problem?
Yes but you have to count a few hours, since all the content is installed separately, several times. I would love one install at once.
- Have you experienced any incompatibility?
Not
- The configuration gnrale is easy?
Extremely simple, and rather well documented
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
Almost 500 pages, but not yet read the little I have read looks pretty good.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
- What is the configuration of your computer? (Motherboard / CPU / Ram / Disk / sound card ..)
Toshiba Laptop with Core 2 Duo 1.66 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 160 GB hard, and EDIROL FA-66
- The software works he correctly on this configuration?
I jamma exceeds 50% CPU utilization, even with many tracks and a few greedy plugins (like a convolution reverb)
But beware: the following is totally instalee almost 50 GB! (Of which more than half is devoted to batteries and perceived). Fortunately, there is no need to install everything, as some packages are very specialized (DVD drums session devoted to multi-mic is only useful if you really want to play the sound engineers!)
- What performance? (If quantifiable)
Excelentes. The big highlight of live!
- This software + hardware configuration is stable?
Rather stable. I experienced a few crashes, but they were all the VST has external and one must take into account that Live 8 has been released.
OVERALL OPINION
- How long have you use it?
A few days but I used the v7 for over a year.
- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
the most:
----------
* The speed with which we can call once you have the software in hand.
* The amount of instruments available and their quality (apparently much better than in v7). The Essential Instrument Collection pack, expander general is always nice to have. Operator is much better than its previous version, and new instruments and effects are well made.
If you have little or no quality VST (like Native instruments) is a complete package that enables you to smith with very strong foundations.
* Absolutely everything can be controlled in real time, so very .... directs live
the least
---------
* Relatively long to master when you come from a sequencer like cubase or sonar
* The MIDI editor below the concurrency
* Some functions, basic in my opinion, missing (not possible to easily implement a group of MIDI tracks and even a song once)
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
The v7
- How do you report qualitprix?
It depends. It is quite expensive but it is easy to get a discount consequently. Many sound cards and MIDI interfaces with Ableton Live Lite. But the upgrade is much cheaper than buying. In addition the box is the same (not even need to have live lite installs!. Second, given the number of instruments available, if you were - legally you get the equivalent in this VST you will be much more expensive for equivalent quality.
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
I thought a lot before investing but I do not regret, so yes 100%.
Note that there is a complete demo version usable without restrictions for 14 days. The ideal to get an idea.
