There's a known problem with trigger fingers loosing midi connectivity in live. I plugged my friend's trigger finger into my macbook pro and could only bang on the pads for less than a minute before the thing stopped working, causing me to have to restart live each time.

I'm buying one from a friend though, and i trust that if there was anything wrong w/it he would tell me. Lack of warranty would be the only thing to be concerned about, and buying this thing used is probably not gonna set you back all that much so if it stopped working, you could just get another one. When i am looking at spending more than $250 on a piece of electronic equipment, i will go for new so it's covered under warranty. Anything less than that i just consider more or less disposable.

Then it's just a matter of how much money you will save Thu, 12 Mar 2009 05:19:54 GMT http://ableton-live.tribe.net/thread/e27af49d-579f-49d2-b45e-c89a1371ba05#ba45acef-a22a-47d0-b14e-b1b947747cd5 $item.owner.firstName 2009-03-12T05:19:54Z http://ableton-live.tribe.net/thread/e27af49d-579f-49d2-b45e-c89a1371ba05#4660ad42-6228-48e2-87f3-71d2018903fe Do I risk anything buying a used Trigger Finger as opposed to a new one?
