Leaked video of Ableton Live 9...
Posted on: 20.10.2012 by Romelia Stankard
apparently this got uploaded to ableton's youtube by mistake and was deleted but someone grabbed it and reupped it




I really hope they have a lot more to offer than a few new devices and an improved browser like this vid shows. I mean it's been like 3-4 years now or something since live 8... The new devices don't really mean that much, I use plugins for that stuff anyway.

At the end of the day it comes down to that I like ableton enough more than I like any of the other current options and I don't believe having a discussion about future releases is taking away from anyone's time making music. I use ableton all the time and discussing my gripes with it doesn't mean everyone in this thread is putting music making on hold until ableton fixes everything, so not really sure what your point is.

After all, if no one bitched about things there'd be no pressure on the developers to improve them.

I'm not saying let's all bitch about everything til we get out own way, just that the whole point of a public community is that people can share their personal opinions and others can listen.

Actually the 8.1 was an architectural rewrite fixing the unstable 8.0 architecture...

I doubt Ableton Live will ever make a DJ-centric UI similar to Traktor, that's not in their radar. Rather a studio tool that could also be used as a a live tool.

Producers have always complained about DAW apps -- nothing new under the sun, yawn.

23.10.2012		so we should just sit quietly with our legacy products when improvements can be made? Sounds like a bang up way for products to not improve at all. Real smart.

22.10.2012		And I will now present my 2 cents, which is for viewing purposes only, nothing more and nothing less. If you started producing/making music on your Microsoft windows Xp, chances are you started with a pirated copy of. Fruity Loops 3, if you didn't shame on you. You got into making music more over the years and you continued making fat beats, then one day you realised you were sitting on a legal copy of FL studio 8, if you weren't, shame on you. You realised hey not much has changed in terms of user interface, work flow, audio quality, etc basically when you look back on it, its mainly been a bunch of updates rather than newer versions. Don't get me wrong, there have been major improvements, major developments but compared to the changes that you would see in other DAWs eg, Cubase, Logic, Pro tools, these nearly look like patch updates rather than new versions. So you moved on to different DAW or like IPhone 4s user's you purchased 5. You rarely see FL fanboys complaining or making high demands from Image Line. Why? Because they have chosen FL as a DAW because its what works for them. In my line of work, I am constantly asked, what DAW is the best? Without fail my answer is always, The DAW that you are comfortable working with getting your idea's outta your head and into the DAW. Which brings me to my point. Ableton fanboys should stop b**ching about what Ableton doesn't have, what Ableton should have and how Ableton should work. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I don't believe the guys at Ableton shouldn't consider user feedback, but don't you believe after 8 versions of the software there is a reason they have not added multiple screen functionality? Or why djing is not there biggest concern? Or many of the demands user have made since Live 7 have not surfaced?Maybe they are politely trying to tell you Cubase would be a better fit for your productions and Traktor for your Djing? Maybe the way Ableton works is not for you, did you ever believe of that before you posted you tirade? One thing you may have forgotten is that if you have been a regular, user of Live 8, you have been making music,performing your productions and djing in Ableton. You enjoyed doing it and in the end it's given you that same warm feeling you get when you pee in a swimming pool in winter. So continue doing all this and less demands. Let the updates come at their own pace and embrace the new features in the new versions even if they take 3 to 4 years to arrive and the feature you want is not there. And if you are still using community s to vent about how crap Ableton is, I hear Sequel 3.2 is rad and bitwig is in development. And remember folks its my 2cents, let's keep it that way

21.10.2012		I hope to God I'm wrong, but the little we've seen doesn't sound like they're giving much mind to DJ'd. Glue might be useful - but if they REALLY cared about us, they'd sort out the external sync'ing!

I wouldn't be so sure. They lost all their main developers then were running around for a couple years just to get live 8 functioning as it should (and still aren't totally there). I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't that many changes.

I just want multi monitor support and a much clearer arrangement view.

idk but maybe to create attention? I mean ever since Bitwig Studio's announcement came out, people have been curious when is Live 9 going to be out or are there even any progress of it.

Also, looking at the video, I believe there's much more new functionality than the video showed, better file browsing (!finally) and there were all kinds of small intriguing buttons on the left side.

Drew Beans
20.10.2012		can't agree more. with that long of a time gap, they really need to come up with more features than new devices and browser. But I'm guessing Live 9 probably won't be released until Q3 2013... seeing that Live 8.4 64-bit isn't even out of Beta testing.
