All user reviews for the Ableton Live Lite 8

installation very simple, just follow the steps.
It takes a little fiddling to define and activate the correct ports but nothing very complicated.
No paper manual supplied but ample pdf.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Acer PC to 1.3GHz U4100 Intel, 4G RAM Windows 7 64-bit sound card Tascam U.S. 122 MkII.
The software does not work well on this config. in a month I was 6 or 7 crashes that have caused permanent loss of data. No way to access the files. Crash reports were sent after 5 mails and unanswered, I ended up uninstalling the product. No support. Zero! More than 50 hours of work lost.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months intensively. This is probably a more or less valid for the DJ. The component is based on the assembly of loops and opportunities baffling. The Lite version does unfortunately not usable for bcp sounds of musical composition. For sequences looped electro, it sounds good, but there is really no longer speak of "music".

The support service is non-existent (at least with respect to the bundle Lite) Maybe the people who buy the "full" version they have a support. With me nice and despite several attempts to contact, I did jamlais had any response. Yet a "bundle", you also pay the price of your unit.

I will never buy their product. Their contempt deserves choir.Il leaves are many other providers of computer music with a little more respect for their customers. No, to be avoided in my opinion.

I got in a bundle with my sound card MAUDIO audiophile, this installation is no problem on a Windows XP, because the software was present in the bundle there is no configuration problem, nor incompatibilities. It also works with my Behringer UCA 202. No paper manual, but in any case the pdf is available on the net.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

The app runs on a Sempron 1.8Ghz, 2.5GB RAM, 2 hard drives in RAID0 and a map MAUDIO audiophile 192.
Runs very well if you're not too hungry plugins, but hey it's the lite version and saw that it was a PC dedicated computer music this configuration is very stable.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since August 2008, I used to work with other sequencers like Cubase, but for electronica and hip hop I think this is a very good sequencer, and is perfect for any treatment or background sound live. I did not pay me I will not complain about the price. However it requires an adjustment period if one is familiar with working with other sequencers. For me it is perfect for the prod and the live, otherwise it is a matter of taste.
