Ableton Live is a music production/PA DAW more than it is a DJing app.

To be honest, I haven't upgraded myself yet, but I will, soon.

Ableton Live is a music factory, not a djing app. You can do entire productions, create live sets, do sound design in it and rewire it to your main application. It's quite versatile.

A lot of things were improved. First of all, there is finally step recording into the piano roll. The way you have to enter notes with the midi keyboard and the computer keyboard is unpractical though, but that's just me probably.

What I'm still missing is score edit, a better multi-out handling with surround support, and some minor touches to make it really complete, such as tape-delay fx, convolution reverb, separate unison depth in Analog. I think also, at that price range, that they could easily add some v-vocal feature like the one you find in Sonar and Cubase 5 (this one should be in logic 9, also).

All in all, a good update if you can deal with the stability issues for now, but it's probably a little too pricey for many who could use a cracked version instead.

Yeah +1 to all that. You covered a couple of things I forgot actually.

Score edit was the other thing I was after. I need it if I'm going to work with live bands. And I've been really wanting to see ableton buy Melodyne for their warping engine and vocal editing for a while. The two companies would go really well together and ableton desperately needs better warping
