i thought this at first (and was nauseated at the idea) but it turns out this is absolutly false. in fact its a GREAT app for building tracks like you would any regular DAW.

i start out a tune with a few loops.. after i have the basic jist of the tune i record a short improvisation of the loops.. nothing too much, maybe just the intro. then from there on out i ususally dont TOUCH the session view..

from there if im sequencing a lot of drums and feel like i want a bridge thats pretty long and not repetitive i can just copy and paste one of the stretches of midi and erase any midi notes in that copy and sequence what i want from and as long as its not.. erm.. attatched to the other set of midi loops then nothing will be edited on the original midi sequence.. get it?

play with the envelopes a lot in arrangement view. very clean design.

you an also record audio or midi in the arrangement view just like any daw.

one other thing. something thats really kinda handy in arrangement view - along the same lines as copying and pasting a lot - is duplicate.. ctrl+d.. it copys and pastes a highlighted selection direction in front of that selection.

it works... but one instance of waldorf attack and one instance of simpler and my CPU is already choking.

Originally posted by electrobaby oh, well then that beware could saftly be placed in front of ANY software purchase.

perdy mush.

thus the beware.

i use live. my 1ghz powerbook is not powerful enough for me to do much more than a few simple beats or maybe record audio...

though live 5 is will allow track freeze -- that definatly works to your (our) advantage. but beware!

that said live on my AMD 2500+ desktop is quite nice. its the only DAW i have installed.
