Max + Ableton finally
upgradelexx time
so this is kind of like a nord modular inside ableton? how much ram do you need? i have 2gigs and as soon as i get up to 6 audio tracks or more my cpu is eaten alive.. i would imagine this type of thing would eat it also?
max/msp is more powerful than a nord modular...and more complicated...i could never really get the hang of max, to be honest...
not sure how ram-draining it would be, would depend on what you were doing with it i assume...
you don't know shit, boy.
:-p
I think its fantastic... I lurve graphical object programing and sequencing.. This is a real move forward 
I wanna get into max/msp to combine with my hardwarestuff with an ipsonlab interface 
So how much do we think this will cost in addition to having to buy Live or Suite 8?
I hope it's just that and not something ridiculous. I could be on board. I have a Lite version that came with my Mbox2Pro but if the combo price (live or suite 8 and max4live) could sit around $1000 or less I could be persuaded to forgo a Nord Modular and wait around for this.
Whats so special about the max step sequencer? live has always had step sequencers.
Live has a piano roll since version 4 i think but since you can't input notes with hardware in a similar manner as an 808 or Electribe it's not really what people would call a step or grid sequencer. I think the Max thing is great because it'll let you use hardware with button grids for sequencing, like the PadKontrol or Monome.
If I understand correctly the piano roll wil now have a step sequencer, like say on a Pro-One or a Poly-800, where you can input midi notes on step at a time with rests etc. That's a feature I thought was lacking.
after seeing whats coming with live8 (eg. groove engine!) im finally going ableton. also that apc40 seems to work with that max step sequencer or something...
may be going to start using ableton more often...........maybe.
I'm still holding off on being excited about live 8 till I learn more about the improved MIDI editing...... it's something that's always really annoyed me with live. that piano roll they have is the worst sequencer piano roll out there. Really, it needs to break the live "one window" paradigm, and be able to pop open MIDI clips for editing in their own full window if you ask it to....
while the possibility of a step sequencer is awesome, the cost for that (max for live plus the akai thing) is going to be more than the cost of live itself!
i agree, their midi is too DUPLO. Logic 5 is so fun in that regard
