[microsound] why i'm not excited about Live

[Graham Miller]

well then! there's your problem! the session (or loop view) is  
ableton's strongest feature and what differentiates it from every  
other linear based vertically organized DAW. there's really no point  
to using live if you are going to constrain yourself to the arrange  
window only. might as well use logic, etc.  the whole (revolutionary)  
point of ableton is the session view, imho.

i almost NEVER use the arrangement view. not at least the most  
exciting parts of composition are done and it's time for boring ol'  
arrangement time...

it's a sequencing instrument, as they call it - not a DAW. as such, i  
think it should be 'played.' that's kinda the whole point:)
