i understand what yall saying, I just went thru the same thing, cept I didnt ask I found out for myself, that program confused the **** outta me when I first got it, I was like wtf is the purpose, sometimes like in this case its easier to just ask especially cats that use similar hardware
Basically Live 3 is for Loops and Samples, it automatically Time Stretches which is its strongest feature especially if you use alot of loops, control over the pitch realtime, chop, arranging, triggering, its a indepth program thats simple if that makes any sense
Its good to add to your workflow if you do plan on setting a good amount of time on sampling, if not don't bother
Make sure you rewire it to your fav sequencer, its not that strong of a standalone program, but enchances the hell out of your existing program
