What´s the catch? Well the biggest catch I can see is that it limits external VST (effect or synth) to 4(!!!!!!) per project….
ouch only 4? well, still pretty cool I guess if you really can't afford the full thing… you could still fart around and learn about things until the day you hopefully get the rest of Ableton's offerings
Why is the price €99 OR $99? Do they have any idea of the current exchange rates? The euro price should be a lot lower, or the dollar price about 45-50 bucks higher. Especially as this is from a European company.
Maybe you could arrange a group buy and fly over the US boxes….
I agree entirely on the price. I had to part with about £92 instead of whatever, say, the USD rate would have given me. As a newbie to MIDI and Ableton, I'd be interested to know what people think of the product itself, given that and accepting that is's a somewhat watered-down version of Live 8. Is it good, notwithstanding? And are there workarounds to enhance it, such as downloading third-party instruments, that kind of thing?
