Cool, what plug-ins do you recommend? I digging the Beat Repeat in Live 5, I have and X-Session, but thinking about trading it in for a Trigger Finger.

I just purchase Acid 6.0 last week, You can upgrade to 6 from 3 for 129.00 until the end of May.

I also like how simple it is but was frustrated by the lack of new features.

In Live do you do most of your work in the Session view or Arrangement view?

12 shelve rack with two cheap beringer (but decent) guitar and bass amp sims, line6 shelve tuner, nord lead 2x, cheap adat, and my microkontrol.. i also use a 67 tele through a soldano 120watt hotrod (i'm very proud of this) and out a beringer 4x12 cab. i've left out some boss stompboxes and the number of di's we use on a live show but lol u get the point.
