Ableton Forum

I got it right from the Ableton website! In the box with my Axiom25 was a little green card from Ableton, telling me the serial number to the Live Lite 6 that came with the keyboard and a link to their site for "special upgrades"
www.ableton.com/specialversions. When I originally went to this site ...

When I purchased my upgrade (recently) the download version was 119, and the boxed version was 179, so 60 dollars difference USD. If your difference was 100, maybe they were offering something different at the time. What peaves me is the whole (paraphrased) "the boxed version of Live 7 includes the ...

With all of the "vague-ness' of wording at Ableton, I question that myself!!! I believed that what I was doing was an upgrade from Live Lite 6 to Live 7 for $389 plus shipping. Now, for me to actually USE, not PREVIEW (which is what they should call it) the EIC2, how many more branches do I have to ...

Can I ask... when you ordered your boxed version, was it an upgrade or not?

Yes it was.

In order to order it as an upgrade, I first had to register the previous version. After I ordered the upgrade, the (different) serial number for the new version appeared on the account page.

So if I am ...

Hey guys and gals!
I'm new to this forum and have been trying to find an answer to my EIC problem. From what I'm reading so far, I think I got screwed...I originally had a version of Live Lite 6 which came with a M-Audio midi keyboard that i purchased. I upgraded to the Live 7 version online ...

Um, no. You can't download EIC -- it's too big.

It looks to me like Operator, Sampler, Electric, Tension, Analog, Drum Machines & Session Drums are all there in demo form. I though EIC was there too... my bad.

But I am still disappointed with Ableton's phrasing of what's included. From the ...

Unfortunately you will need to buy a separate license for EIC, to get the serial for unlocking, even thou the DVD comes with the boxed Live 7 (EIC 1 serial works for EIC 2 aswell). Customercare confirmed this when I asked about it.

The information stated here http://www.ableton.com/eic is a bit ...

Hi all... Just got the boxed version of Live 7, which of course included the essential instruments collection 2, and cannot unlock this thing. The manual instructs "you will need to unlock them using the unlock code provided in your Live 7 box."

I have scoured the box, the CD case, the manual ...

Hi all,
I have found the answer for whether I should be saving my samples and projects in 24/32bit (32 of course), but I couldnt find the answer to whether I should save these in 96 or 44.1 kHz. The main purpose of the files should be loops for liveset. Does saving in 96 kHz make any difference in ...

on the Preference window, go to the Record/Warp/Launch. you'll see the options there.
in the pdf manual, go to page 197, section 14.7
hope that helps.
i'm not in front of Live atm, but i'm pretty sure that if you move the mouse pointer on top of an audio clip, you will see at the bottom of the GUI ...

I really have tried to find this out myself - so please forgive me if this is just a completely stupid question... but how can I see if Live is recording in 24 bit or 16 bit? I looked through the settings and did some manual skimming and couldn't find it today. Could it be that 44100 is 16 bit and ...

I believe the LE versions are 16 bit - the "full" one is 24 bit. Just a space saver if you need it... but as far as usage goes - I would love to know the answer to this as well...

I am probably buying a Mac Pro this week and run ableton 7 presently will Ableton use all 8 Cores or is it a waste for this app?

I am not sure myself about "using all 8 cores" but the performance of Live 7 on my new MacPro is just mind blowing. I doubt I will use as many tracks and plugins and ...
