<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>I never really bother with skins as I usually like to just concentrate on sounds when I press the live button but that's such a good skin, really easy on the eye :)<br><br>Re the OP, i'm still getting into live, after Jammers suggestion I downloaded a cracked version of 8 a couple of years ago to see if it was any good and within a few hours was creating stuff I liked so when 9 came out i bought the base package and have since upgraded to the whistle and bells version. <BR>Coming from my 6 year hiatus where before I was using sonar and a very difficult to integrate midi setup, Live has been a god send giving me almost the same interface with all the sounds built in. With the added APC 80c control unit (c stands for carbon ;) ) its everything I need and more, and to make things really cool max has opened a whole new section where I can grab an existing instrument drag it into something like granulator and now I've got a completely different sound and every so often someone comes up with yet another weird max device.<BR> <BR>While I haven't played with other recent audio packages I gotta say i'm happy to stick with live and even if it did nothing more would still be glad that I've got a pretty rock solid program that gives me the freedom to experiment and create while sitting with feet up on the sofa and lappy on lap and headphones plugged in.<BR> <BR>Only downside is that even running it on a pretty high spec alienware lappy with 4th gen I7 i notice the cpu bar getting a lil high, but i'm sure I can sort that out with a more efficient use of effect units.<br> <BR><div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: andrewtarpinian@gmail.com<br>Subject: Re: Ableton Live - has it lost its mojo?<br>Date: Fri, 5 Jun 2015 10:17:59 -0400<br>To: music-bar@lists.music-bar.org<br><br><div><br>2 words: disco skin. </div><div><br>On Jun 5, 2015, at 6:24 AM, foRUMS 4 punkdISCO <<a href="mailto:forums@punkdisco.co.uk">forums@punkdisco.co.uk</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote><style><!--
