the majority of people i have seen use ableton, use it just to mix tracks anyway. There is no creativity there. To me this is not live.

check out our live set, I posted on the forum someplace...anyway..we combince 3 laptops, plus outboard gear, old school effects, compressors, 808, machinedrum, sometimes the odd 101 or 303
and no we dont 'just hit play' lol and yes there are mistakes and no its not perfect, because we allow chaos to happen.
I have a pet peave about guys who use ableton and just mix their already mastered finished products...thats fuking gay, instead i like to treat it like a studio session, a jam...but with the knowledge that there are people listening so you've got to make it interesting.
y?i think its showing a lot of courage to play your own stuff out.. its not always easy to do.
also not everyone has the knowledge to do a live set.. its a complicated thing and takes a lot of time. i know from my own experience that its not just a case of throwing loops from your trax into ableton.. i've been working on mine a long time now and i still play full tracks along side it as im not 100% happy with it yet.
