Newly authorized Live 8 Suite. How to get M4L demo?

Post by exper » Thu Dec 20, 2012 2:36 am

Sorry. I did search, but nothing meaningful came up. SO, until I get my Live 9 Suite update, haw can I play around with m4l in Live 8 suite? I know there's supposed to be a demo mode, but when I put Live in the No Save mode, the M4L devices do not show up. I have the Max 5 demo also...

Is there a support document about how to get the M4L demo going?

Thanks !

go to preferences.
tick box which says something like 'show products at startup'
it then will show you two options on starting up, one of which is the full live 8 suite including m4l
prepare to be pleasantly surprised. There's some great plugins in there.
You will also have to download a 30day trial of max (full license) in order for this to work..

Awesome thanks! And if I want to download some patches from Max4live.com, where would I put them?

anywhere you like really, you just click on them to open them from live's browser
but you can also add them to your library by dragging and dropping i think,

can't actually remember, don't remember having any issues ( and i know i installed a few)
