Re: Essential Instrument Collection 2

I think eic got reorganized into other packs that should be at least in suite, not sure… what was the sample? Maybe what you need is in the live 8 compatibility pack? https://cdn2-downloads.ableton.com/livepacks/Legacy/live-8-legacy-library/9.0b59/r30431/Live8LegacyLibrary_r30431_v9.0.alp I thought...

Re: Can we PLEAAASSSEEE finally get some proper plugin window management and UX?!!

One thing that always irk'd me with Ableton was its minimal plugin window management compared to something like Sonar which had some cool Plugin Window management options (even from a mid 2000s Windows XP standpoint). I never understood why you couldn't at least minimize the plugin Window (something...

Re: A growing list of VST3 problems in Ableton: Extreme Sluggishness and GUI Freezing. It's time to fix it.

I have the same issues. Massive X, and other VST3 freezing or crashing ableton on close. If you use the same Plugin inside an additional host eg BlueCat PatchWork then the problems are fixed. On a lot of vst3 synth preset switching needs longer than Insider other hosts. Think this is because of the...

Buehler? I cannot be the only Live user experiencing these problems. I've already confirmed that with the Korg team.
I think I experienced this as well with Korg Opsix.

To be honest I haven't tried these VSTs in a different DAW to see if it works better there. Will when I get some time.

I'm not seeing Push 3 in Ableton Live

Push 3 is not showing as an available connected device for me in Ableton Live. I am in Push 3 Standalone mode. I tried on my AT&T wifi Router with no luck. I then changed to use my Smartphone hotspot (Connect both my PC and Push 3 to same wireless network) No luck. I am running Ableton 11.3.4 an...

Re: So... Live on Linux?

Now, since Push 3 standalone runs Live on some version of Linux, what are the chances the actual DAW also gets released on Linux? In last couple of years audio environment for Linux has become very robust, with many DAWs (Reaper, Bitwig, Waveform, Ardour - to name the key players) and hundreds of V...

Re: Questions about a new pc and ableton

You should be able to keep your same license and install on second machine. if you only authorized Ableton on one machine, installing on second machine is usually painless. If you plan on retiring your old box, it is best to deauthorize on that one. Regarding transferring files, this can be sometime...

For me, they "install" but you have to hit "cancel" at the end, then they are fine. It's not every one though, sorry, I didn't pay attention to which ones.
From my memory it seems to be the Packs that are related to 11.3.

Older Packs seemed to install like normal.

Hi,

same issue here. And still with Ableton Live 11.3.2.
But it seems, that clicking Cancel leads to no problem and the Pack gets fully installed.

Regards, Stefan

Same issue here and pressing cancel seems to install pack for me as well.

Re: when is Live 12 coming?

NO NEW SYNTHS! We have what we need ;) That would be like Reason in my book. Im afraid that with standalone devices like Push 3, synths and Samplers will be part of Live's niche even more, as I'm thinking alot of Standalone Push 3 users are going to eventually want more synths and stuff. That said ...

Re: Push 3 3rd party sampler imports

I am still on the wait list for my stand alone but I am very concerned about the sampler library. It just doesn’t have what I need! I use a third party VST sampler but that will not be possible with stand alone. We need some avenue to fill the holes in the Ableton sample library!! +1 With a standal...
