hi, oh, i am definitely going for it. i am just curious if i should hold off doing the upgrade to 11 instead of going from 9.1 to 10 and then again to 11
and any issues doing either way.
thanks for any advice

looking for a little advice. since there is a deal out there to buy 10 upgrade at 20% off and get 11 free i am thinking of doing this since i don't want to get too far behind. i love 9 and didn't upgrade to 10 because i didn't see enough that i had to have and was scared off with early cpu demand po...

well that's good news. thanks for sticking with my question. much appreciated. since you seem knowledgeable about native/kontakt. i use a korg kronos synth. but it takes 5 min to boot up and sometimes i hate the wait and overusing it. so i saw this large kronos sample library for kontakt. if i just ...

that is not the problem. the problem is the folder i am using is on an SSD drive that is maxed out. i have about 135GB more of samples etc. that i need to locate on another drive. so i can't put those in a sub folder or the existing vst folder because that drive is maxed out. i am trying to find a w...

perhaps i didn't verbalize that correctly.
i know how to make another folder.
my question was how do i get ableton live to accept more than one folder as the custom plug-in folder.

using ableton live 9 with windows have all my vst's in one folder but that hard drive is getting maxed out even though i upgraded to a larger one. i can't seem to see a way to have multiple folders for my plug-in custom folder because ableton only gives me one choice for a custom folder i want to ge...

i just cloned my C drive (SSD) onto a larger (SSD) and everything seemed fine but i just went to pull up an audio effect and all my category info is gone

using Ableton Live 9
with Windows 10

please help

i guess i could also just replace the 250GB SSD M.2 that came with the computer with a 1TB internal M.2 before taking it out bounce everything currently on the 250GB SSD onto the internal HDD that has plenty of space and then make a recovery flash drive to boot off of for after i swap the SSD's sinc...

thanks for input: so could i just put all my recording stuff on the external so i wouldn't have to stress out the internal 250GB SSD (i can run it through usb 3 or the USB type C port i could just keep the operating system on the internal SSD and other various non-musical programs on it. i use ablet...

thanks so much for response. couple questions.: sounds like i should bite bullet and get a 1TB SSD. any suggestions on brand model. guessing i need a 2.5 for a desktop is an external SSD ill advised? any suggestions on how to clone over what i have on SSD now to the new drive. should i just bounce e...

so using alive 9 and have a windows 10 computer with enough ram and a 250 SSD and a 2 TB HD have been good to go for a long time but have purchased native complete which is over 400GB storage. i now have all my program files on the 250 SSD and my data on the 2TB HD only have about 40 GB left of spac...

looks like Arq isn't set up for windows quite yet. (i am using windows)
when you say the caveat of backblaze is "have to be prepared" not sure what you mean by that. i don't mind a little work at end of session.

thanks for tip on backblaze. i had a well known back up service (carbonite) only to find out that they don't back up all the files in a folder you have set for backup. after speaking with their tech people they confirmed that they don't back up files that you update to. say i have a track/project i ...

had a computer crash years ago that put the fear into me. getting along in years on SSD and wondering if i am backing up all that needs to be. if i haven't changed anything from the way live would store things by default. if i back up the "ableton" folder on my hard drive am i getting everything tha...

seriously considering getting a avid eleven rack due to a price drop and wondered if any one had any issues using it with ableton live. it says plug and play with pro tools and was curious if there were any issues with using it with ableton. any info or experience with using it would be much appreci...
