well It was nice to get constructive info

Not completely working yet but will work through the night to get it done!
my gig is on the 6th of april so will be able to get it done by then!

well I upgraded an now all that was said above works
I guess i shouldn't rely to much on my stingy dutch blood and rely more on my crazy Irish blood

Well, still have much work to do, so I should get crackin'

Thanks for the help!

MY music mate just wrote to the people at Ableton about our set building troubles. They say that it is not possible to do what we want to do using version 5.
We are downloading the upgrade to 6.5 now.

Thanks for the help

mmm, I'll be in the studio 2morrow, will give it another shot.
It would be great if i could pull it of before my next gig.
It would save some time loading the sets and let me concentrate on other thing, like patch changes on my old analog gear.

Thanks for your help

The songs which I have created contain multiple midi and audio tracks. Each of the songs is saved as a SET. I have midi and mixer automation programed on some of the tracks.

well basically, I want to import my tracks into live cause from what i hear it's the best proggy for live performance. which is the next step for us to take with our hobby.

So I guess exporting and importing as midi files should work.

I know a guy with Live 4 on his laptop, will see if he want to try and import a track to ...
