Re: terrible day getting a UPC40 *harsh word warning*.

on the plus side.
Ableton made good as they (i suppose) forced a serial number my way shortly after an email i sent them (ok, 4-5 hours, but it was on a saturday morning, so somebody is monitoring their emails)...that was prompt, and a kuddos to their team.

THANK YOU ABLETON !

Trial version included with apc 40

I just bought an APC40
It included live8.1 but
It was a massive pita to get this to even load (read my rant ) and update.
So, will this version of ‘live8.2’ expire in 29 days, leaving me high and dry ? Or will I be able to continue to use this software in the very same manner as it is right now ...
