are you working completely in the box? or do you have gear attached?

Completely in the box

I’m using the same Mac mini that I’ve been using since 2009 running logic pro seven. I did get a new midi controller though.

for as long as I’ve been doing this I’ve become pretty decent at mixing inside the box except when it comes to vocals. I think because I just barely ever do it but I’ve never really mastered it or even come close.

How many goddam tracks does anyone need anyway?
(caveat I have no idea what Tombot's music is like, maybe you need 10 tracks just for the drums)

choose vst's or patches carefully (some of those wavetable patches are heavy on my cpu) , draw automation instead of twiddling the knob (or at least redraw the curves to mirror the twiddling to get rid of a lot of whatever those little points on the curve are called), freeze as Dan said.

or just "Free-form plague poetry over a VCS3 freakout" as per suggestion in ilm thread.

Live 11 is coming in Q1 2021.

The additions look useful but not enormously transformative. Better CPU performance would be good though.

Comping is very welcome, have been waiting for that for years. Spectral fx looks fun but nothing I haven't got elsewhere. Probability means I will probably never use Renoise again as thats pretty much the main reason I occasionally use it. The macro stuff looks awesome, especially no longer having to piss around with ClyphX scripts and commands.

All in all, looking forward to complaining for a few months then not being able to resist dropping £150 on an upgrade of Suite (again)

I’d love lower latency from the software instruments.
