I had Live Lite for like a year before I gave it a fair go. It came with my M-Audio sound card.

If the APC-40 comes with Ableton Live, you're better off waiting for Live 9 to be released. Hopefully Live 9 will come with it.

Well, I can't afford it right now anyways... because Christmas... And there are other things I need to spend my next paycheck or two on anyways before I can afford to spend anything else on myself. Who knows, maybe live 9 will be out by then.

But I'm curious, are you saying that Ableton doesn't offer free updates? Because if that's the case, I can't see myself being too fond of it.

Pretty sure you get free updates for your current version i.e. if you purchase Live 8, you will get Live 8.4 etc as a free upgrade, but Live 8 purchasers don't get free updates to Live 9. I think a discount is warranted though.

Don't see how it's too much of a big deal... I mean, updates only come out so often, and it's the actual DAW and how it fits your preference that matters. Live 8 will be better than FL Studio (or any other DAW I've tried) for me for a long, long time.

As a comparison, there are still professional artists who use Photoshop CS2 for digital painting as the program still serves its intended function well enough for them to create professional-quality work.

I still use FL studio 8 for slightly more creative stuff.. while I use Ableton Live 8 for trance/house music.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sq5U7IiWPoY&feature=plcp I parodied a minecraft let's play, lol.

in other other news

I met a girl yesterday. after an hour or so of talking with her and others I gave her a back rub (she took the hint which is why gave one) and then she gave me her number. I text her, she responded. She told me before she left that if she doesn't respond, she's probably at work. and she kept to her word!

she's into music and such. quite excited to see what's coming up next...

I asked if she'd like to chill after her exams but she has plans with friends. We'll do something over the break though... :)

FL Studio's Performance Mode

So... I just tried out Performance Mode for the first time with a trance song I'm working on... it's actually a lot of fun, could see a lot of good coming from it just playing around with clips like that.

Too bad it's a real pain in the ass to control everything using my M-Audio Keystation 88es, everything's so far apart, I unfortunately cannot reach from C1 to G#2 with a single hand... and the other hand was busy triggering the melodies.

... Now I want my trigger pads even more...

Work on some synth patches? Sample some drums? As an electronic producer, you should never have "nothing to do". There's so much you can work on, even when you're feeling no musical inspiration. That's what I love about being an electronic producer.

Sequenced, you're missing an "h" and a ":" in that link in your sig. Just so you know.
