you dont want the overhead of decoding multiple mp3 streams
in realtime (by default, live reads the wav in realtime
each time it plays, a lot like a record player... )applying
pitch or time shifting, and then output as an uncompressed
stream.  you can upgrade hard drives with much more ease
than a CPU, and ableton can read from CD or dvd, which
helps (cd or dvd of .wav)

i discovered ableton live a few days ago and have started
to chop my
vinyls into handy loops. it's really sick work but on the
other hand i
can't wait to add this to my vinyl/fs set. 

as far as i got it, most of you use ableton to play entire
tracks with
it? uhm, i can't open any mp3's here, you guys have got too
much hd
space for all the .wavs or ??? am i too dumb?

cheers,
ronny
