aidan o driscoll Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 One thing I would LOVE they sorted is this checking VSTs everytime you open Live. Used to have a parameter you could add to an options file that sorted this, but doesnt work for 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telecode 101 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) is there a crossgrade offer? i see on another form they started getting cosy with Spitfire ... so looks like its not just for EDM and DJs anymore. tempting.. but i can't be arsed to learn a new DAW... however, cubase is sometimes a little annoying. .

Don't recall ever seeing a crossgrade offer. Just the upgrades from intro and standard, plus the version upgrade deals. I think that if you already have a DAW you like, you don't really NEED Ableton. But it still offers a lot in the way of sound design creativity, and experimentation for any style of music, not just EDM and DJ - at the cost of a huge learning curve. It is different from other DAWs, and that is what can make it a good complement to your existing DAW. It is also rock solid for live performance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cclarry Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 I was hoping 10 Lite would become 11 Lite...but nope.... I have it, but have never installed it. It just sits in my account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidan o driscoll Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Here is a load of short vids showing the new features in LIVE 11: https://www.ableton.com/en/live/learn-live/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) If you are curious about Ableton Live, my suggestion would be to sign up for an online video course by a certified Ableton trainer, instead of watching random YouTube producers. I can vouch for: https://www.ableton.com/en/certified-training/j-anthony-allen/ He has a complete Ableton Live curriculum at Udemy.com for low cost. Get it on sale frequently. Currently one day left at $11.99. https://www.udemy.com/course/ableton-live-10-complete/ Just use the trial version of Live Suite for the course. Get all the features of Live 11 Suite free for 90 days. https://www.ableton.com/en/trial/ You should be able to decide within 90 days if it's for you... and since many Live demo projects and courses exceed the capabilities of Live Lite, you will probably be much happier if you can follow along using the full version demo.

aidan o driscoll Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 With this 11 upgrade in comparison to 10 I have a crap load of new instrument and new toy downloads beside the Live 11 itself sitting in my account. Its going to take a while .. lots comeing with 11, even standard which is what I have. Only reason i have Ableton is I bought 8 way way back .. I had not upgraded it until now, around Christmas when the offer came by to upgrade to 10 and get 11 FREE. Sort of no brainer for €95 in November 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much same here, except that I had an old license for v5 that wouldn't even install on Win 7, that I upgraded to v9 Standard a few years ago after Gibson shut Cakewalk down. Have taken advantage of the upgrades since to keep it current. Fascinating stuff! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I have still kept in with Ableton aside from what you said above " it still offers a lot in the way of sound design creativity, and experimentation for any style of music," .. is the F9 Audio products for Ableton: https://www.f9-audio.com/collections/all-products 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Thanks for the tip. But I expect that it's going to take me years to just get through the bundled Ableton packs in Suite, including the free Max for Live devices. I just recently upgraded to Suite in a pre-release no-brainer deal. Edited February 23, 2021 by abacab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
