hey, can anyone help with this....
i just lost a load of stuff...
i just had a song last night with about 3 bidule patches in it that were saved in the song.
load it up this morning and they are all gone and ive no idea where....

any ideas about where they could have gone ?
ableton doesnt do backups like logic right ?
would like to understand how ableton saves these things so this never happens again....

many thanks for any help...

It's those freaking Brighton ley-lines.. They are well know for messing with Abletons filing system.. That's why I left!

No.. TBH... Haven't got a clue..

We are right up Abes ass, mostly because its so awesome, but also because we love it.

PS. I love my P4 and make great noises with it.

its always a good reason to switch hosts for things like this. Then when back in Nuendo you will realize why you left.

i never left nuendo i never started using it properly..
its got everything ableton hasnt
which is mixing precision and a sort of feeling of permanence...
i.e. you dont lose presets for no reason whatsoever...

example : cant find a way to pull all the faders down relatively
which as an engineer is as basic function and logic does it within half a second...

its a perfectly good reason for leaving a product if it dont werk correctly...
i lost a good days work there - not too pleased....

and yeah thanks for the great suggestions.
if no more americans ever answer any post of mine till the end of time that would be great. thanks.

london is a nice place. =)

nuendo is far superior to Ableton, good observation. =)

Not posting to answer your question, just to say you seem like a dick.

who gives a fuck what you think. its not like youve paid for any of your software anyway.

better go back to your Pro Nuendo and Logic software, seeing as youre an "Engineer" and all.
