Live is going to make doing a live PA a lot easier. I've only used it live once but I didn't have to bring nearly as much gear with me as I had in the past. It was used for a more experimental set but damn was it easy. I dunno how I feel about writing tracks in it since I'm just so used to how I do things already and don't see much of an advantage. But, it's great to replace any pattern/step based sequencers used in live setups.
