i'm updating my setup from:
union 2.5.4 to 2.5.7
ableton live 7.0.14 to 7.0.18
os x 10.5.8
macbook pro 2.53ghz + 4gb ram
are the latest versions of union and live 7 more stable than the older ones?
i'm also trading out my original ohm for an akai apc40 and a novation launchpad.
my plan is to have one or two tracks in live assigned to union for the video so i can launch video clips in union. is it better to assign one of the user templates in the launchpad to union? if i'm rewiring union and live so i can trigger video in union from ableton scenes and clips, i would open live first, then union, right?
i haven't started hooking this new rig up yet. looking for ideas. any tips on using these controllers with union?
