yeah fella, after the version 4 and then they added the midi and vst support, making Live competitive with every other sequencing and writing software, in my opinion the best choice. Live version 3 and before had no midi support, so was more intended for live performance mixing only wave blocks.

i dont know what do you mean exactly with 'one shot' samples but i make music combining midi and audio tracks, like any other music writing software such as cubase or logic audio.

Ctrl+Alt+i: show or hide the 'ins/outs' in session view. Maybe it's an obvious one, and there's even a button for it, but I always find myself using the shortcut.
F12 is a fuckin wicked one that I hadn't been using.

I mean... I still get confused working with "one shot" samples, like snare. I usually make a loop(1 bar for example) on Cubase, and then import on Ableton Live to play with it. I donīt make the loops using Ableton.
And thatīs what I miss here. Cubaseīs audio features are soooo good that I canīt quit them!

is there anyway to change it to use something else instead of "ctrl+1"?
for a function to use so often, its not really convenient |

theres nothing you will miss if you migrate to live 5,
at first i also missed the stretch and reverse tools, but there are the same audio tweaking options,

you cannot change the grid resolutions by mouse, only through the keyboard
