bought max for live...30 day max trial?

Post by mholloway » Wed Feb 03, 2010 3:24 am

I just bought Max For Live. I thought there was a 30 trial period for the standalone max with this, but when I try to open max by itself, it says it has expired.

The only reason I want to open it is because I know nothing about Max, and the huge batch of help tutorials on the cycling '74 site expect you to be able to run Max (the Max specific tutorials, not Max for Live ones) is there a way to do the Max tutorials from within Max for Live?

I started looking at the included tutorials that are setup in .als files, and they seem good, but not exactly the best starting point for getting into Max. I mean, I don't even know how the object boxes work yet....

thanks,

you can still load all the Max tutorials, you just need to open max through live and not stand alone.
