Hi all!

Hoping you could help me out... I'm wondering about the capabilities of the Live as an Ableton controller.
Of course, I know it wouldn't be in the same league as a Push2, but is it usable?
Do the q-link knobs automatically map to Ableton and/or VST for example?
I'm on the brink of clicking "buy", but I want things like this to basically work in a €1200 machine. It IS ALSO a controller so should be usable enough in that way too...
Advice needed urgently!! :-)

Thanks,
YdeH
