Installed without problem on my laptop Medion 2.4 Ghz 512 MB RAM.
No incompatibilities with MIDIOX, SonicStage, my editors for synthesizers and hard drivers for my sound card indigo I / O and MIDISPORT8X8. I have nothing else in my bike apart an army of free samples mugs on the net ...

I purchased the download version, no need for manual since I made an upgrade of Live4, I just read the new specs.

I had CubaseVST5 and CubaseSX's on my pc to try my hand a computer music, but I have not hung programs. It's been only been a year I use Live and I delight to do the zic pc ...

9 / 10 because Live5 will be much worse than Live6 ... Gave me and ca cum notes as you can not even imagine ...

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Click click ... this right click ... too good ...

I love the warp function that automatically hold the loops to the tempo, it is a sick trick that works really well with the style that I compose (electronic zik square well). Before I did not use loops, now I can use the stuff I recorded There's super long and incorporate them into my new.

In addition it works also with the mp3, if I downloaded it as much because of Live5, swear it's true ...

I have a lot of hard stuff (MC505, MicroKorg, Elektron's, QM309, Polymorph, 16QAM / 3, MS404, full of effects racks ...) and everything can be synchronized thanks Live5 and 5 Live can be remotely by all synths. So I am very MIDI and now I no longer need the soft MIDIOX all my machines for linking them through the PC. Great happiness that was not also with Live4, MIDI sync and all of these machines is Live5 no delays and lags, I MIDISPORT8X8 interface.

I like the files are stored in Live5 I had at least two gigabordels Live4 in my HD.

I feel that the audio engine is much better on Live5, and I speak only of the processing performed by WARP mode.

I think I'll be able to get into mastering my tracks, the effects are also very friendly and easy to use.

I do not use VST then freeze function and all the widgets CPU eaters do not concern me, but it seems that there has been the big change with Live5 ...

9 / 10 because Ableton failed to create the ultimate software alone knows your eyes and play the right tempo warp music you got in your big head artist ...

OVERALL OPINION

The concept is always the Live4 present in this new version but has been (tresbeaucoup) improve, it is more productive and paradoxically easier to use because many shortcomings of the previous version have disappeared.

We can say that the designers have cemented the previous version of Live which still had many needs, y'avait a side that was sorely lacking in pro Live4.

We can say that the transition was difficult Live4 tracker in the sequencer, and that is the Live5 sequencer Ableton pro.

I'm not working for Ableton and I still prefer to create on harware, but if y'avait Live5 on Audiofanzine There's been five years, my home studio would be a great Giant screen with controllers everywhere ... 9 / 10 because I was not able Ableton help but ruin stuff in hardware ... but what is he doing all these years ... nan, but sometimes I swear ...
