[_] [OT] Anyone using Ableton Live?

Big up the [_] massive (or something),

I've been a bedroom DJ for about 15 years now, but haven't ever felt
confident enough to release something to the world... until now.

Would Ableton Live allow me to build up a set like you'd build a tune in
Acid, then dump the finished thing as a single audio file? It certainly
looks like this is possible, according to the DJ
showcase<http://www.ableton.com/pages/live_6/showcase/for_djs>on the
Abtleton web site, but I may be wrong.

I've tried using Acid for this in past, but found the software too limited
in scope for this particular kind of thing--much hair-ripping when it comes
to start frames and subsequent transitions between tracks.

Thanks in advance, tipsters.
