It already does what I need it to do...I came from the XL originally then to the 2500(shout out to jjos!) then the STUDIO then the LIVE... I really like the live. It's like an upgraded XL to me. I just don't like it when it's working fine and then an update comes along to make it "better" but actually makes it worse. If the track mutes problem isn't fixed I plan on never upgrading. All I really want is the pop up qlink joint(I feel should have been implemented in the 1st os) and the pad perform on the main screen.

Few days and a crash? X freezed. If this happens when on stage ****. These drum machines are made for studios and livingrooms only. Not for the gigs..

Then it crashed on me when I only had one program open and tried to apply an effect to a pad. I guess I’m going back to 2.8
