    Default Ableton Live 8 / 9

    Simple question,

    I've got the money, just need to sort out wich version i'm going to buy.
    Read a lot about Live 9, about the CPU usage jumping, but I don't know what to chose.

    Someone who can help me on this choise?

    Thanks!

    Bostad.

    Would you be buying the suite version? If so, the inclusion of Max for Live makes it a no-brainer to buy Live 9. There's lots of other reasons to buy 9, and I personally like it a lot more, but that's a major one, from a cost benefit perspective.

    What about the CPU usage ?
    A friend of mine installed it on his PC (believe me, a decent one), and it was constantly jumping around 29-36.
    Did you encountered that too?
