How to get MAX for live to work with Live 8.2.1?

Post by hijo de la pula » Mon May 02, 2011 8:37 am

I still use Live 8.2.1 because 8.2.2 crashes a lot. I read that Max 5.1.3 is the right version for Live 8.2.1 and I installed it, but Live won't automatically detect it. When I navigate to Program Files>Cycling '74>Max Runtime 5.0 (where Max was installed) Live pops up an error message saying it finds no usable version in the location I specified.

It was a project with 4 tracks, only audio, only Live's own plugins and it crashed twice, consecutively while saving the project and a few times while I was auditioning samples in the browser. Live 8.2.1 almost never does this.

Perception is reality, and the world in which you live is obviously some considerably different version to the majority of us....

Carry on as you were.....
