when i want to update to a new version of ableton live suite through ableton's website it gives me a full version of the programme, including all the samples and instruments which i already have. i then have to erase the previous version of the programme and make sure my library is transferred prope...

i was on ableton 7 LE for DJ purposes for a long time and did the rather expensive upgrade to Live 8 suite - definitely noticing a huge difference in performance, freezing, crashing and glitches in playback ... does the upgrade to 8.1.1 deal with this at all?
