Number 9

[Declan Gorman]

Regarding the pricing of Live 9, here is a statement from an Ableton 
that was released on the forum.

'We've noticed some confusion about upgrade pricing for Live 9, and 
wanted to clarify things here.

To begin with, pricing in the Ableton web shop adapts according to 
products that a customer already owns - including versions of Live, 
Instruments, and Max for Live. As such, people who own different 
combinations will see different upgrade prices. Nevertheless, we see the 
confusion amongst customers, and will try to make our pricing as 
transparent as possible to everyone, as soon as possible.

Existing Suite 8 owners will be offered an exclusive introductory 
discount on upgrades to Live 9 Suite, to be made available upon release. 
This introductory discount is not yet shown on the website, as Live 9 
Suite is not yet available. We apologize for any confusion or 
frustration from our oversight in not making this discount clear on 
ableton.com, and ask for your patience as we iron out the kinks in our 
new site.'

This has pleased a lot of people on the forum, myself included as I felt 
the upgrade price I was given was a bit much considering the my current 
suite of products.

Regards,

Declan.
