Heh. Will you be selling every other product you use, too, if your dearest wishes aren't addressed by every update they get?

I already explained in a previous post that the Live just isn’t my thing, but kept hoping it would improve, and that 2.7 would be the last chance I would give the Live.
Instead of selling it after the first month as a miss-buy I patiently kept trying to work with the Live for over a year. So I think I have all the right to say I dislike the Live and after seeing which direction Akai is heading that it definetely is not a match for me.
So no, I’m not that spoilt 20yo keyboard musician / warrior buying and selling gear every other month.
Sorry, my bad – it just read (to me) like this update didn't please you, not knowing the context.Fanu wrote:Menco wrote:

OK
All good! I won't be using this new feature either; I love Ableton Live, but I use it so much every day (I mix and master for clients and do all inside Ableton Live, as well as a lot of my D&B productions) that MPC hiphoppery is almost like an escape from my daily stuff.

So €1000 badly spent is quite some money for just a hobby. Plus I only want to work with a workflow that is fun to me. Working on the MPC 2500 also has been fun to me, so I hoped working on the Live would be fun for me too.
So I’ll take my loss, stop bitchin’ and grap the cash I can use to get a new laptop and move on.
