I see your point - but I'm not sharing it since I don't even record clips in Live. I use Mobius to record, arrange and manipulate. My use of Ableton Live is rather minimal, but for what I use it for it works great. That is when I need to pull off playback of canned audio together with live playing, typically in a surround live installation setup. I'm talking about running Live as the sync master, because in my world Live totally fails following tempo sync. Not slagging it, I just stay away from doing that now when I know it isn't working (it's not that its crashing like before v.8 but rather that audio artifacts are introduced in the slave position) - but as said, I think Live is great for one particular purpose. And if they ever fix the slave sync issue I would immediately start using it as a slave host for Mobius only because the M4L thing is so exciting. As an example, today someone shared M4L device that lets you snag a slice of live audio input and hack it up with granulation tools (that can of course be handled by expression pedals etc). Isn't that fun! Greetings from Sweden Per Boysen www.perboysen.com http://www.youtube.com/perboysen
