I had a very stable Live until I added a bunch of free vst from the web. Now it crash from time to time. Im sure Live will be more stable with a cleaner vst folder.

so vsts what aren't even loaded into live affect it even when they're just sat in the vst folder?

I've had a single crash with Live 8 so far, and that was reproducable (dragging an audio track into the Sylenth GUI). It's rock stable. I tend to use huge Instrument Racks since I've upgraded my computer, with multiple istances of ACE, tons of effects and complex Gate & Sidechain Compression routings. No problem.

Why not update and see for yourself?
Your earlier version will still be accessible anyway......

Making no judgements, if you are running, shall we say, an 'unofficial' version of Live, which you got, for example, from a torrent, you cannot expect it to have the same level of functionality. If this was, theoretically, the situation, this may also explain why a certain person may not have already upgraded to the latest version of Live.

Otherwise, if you have an official license, as stated, you can install 8.2 and if it is worse, always go back to 8.1.3 (although any files recorded in 8.2 won't work).

I think the OPs original point is valid though. Overall, it has taken Live 8 a long time to get to a position of stability for MANY users (there are always some hardware combinations which will work better and some users who don't push the program very hard with a lot of diverse functionality to cause a crash) and I think most Live users are hoping this will be improved with the next release.

Live 8.2 is rock solid and stable. Using many kind of 3td party plugs also. The dream comes true as I'm concerned.

8.1x was a desaster.

the people that beta tested seem to be having great luck with Live. not that you should have to beta test a product you paid for but it's a chance to give it a test ride and get personal attention to your problems before release.

i bought my ableton license from someone on this board, thanks very much.

i have tried 8.2, found it to be as buggy, if not more than 8.1.3

but maybe i'll try and streamline my plugins and see if there's any difference.

If you're having crashes or other issues with Live, then please contact Ableton technical support here: http://www.ableton.com/support. Please include any crash reports, details about the set in which you were experiencing issues, and the email address under which you have your Live license (if it is not the one you are emailing from).

Sure!

CPU: i7 950 @ 4x 3.06 GHz
MB: Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 460 OC
RAM: Corsair XMS3 Dominator Kit 6GB (8-8-8-24 @ DDR3-1600)
SSD: OCZ Vertex 2 Extended 120GB (for the OS, Ableton Live 8.2.1 & VST plugins)
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 1000GB SATA III (for samples, projects, VST librarys)
PSU: Enermax MODU87+ 500W
Case: Lian Li PC-B25FB
Fans: Noctua NH-U12P SE2 (CPU) and 5 case fans controlled by Scythe Kaze Server fan controller
OS: Windows 7 Professional 64

Audio: Asio4All with Onboard sound...

Going to upgrade to Echo Audiofire 4 for Christmas.

I built this dream machine by myself. Took me several weeks just to find the perfect components and it has so freaking much power that I doubt I will ever upgrade in the next few years. Because of the fan controllers, I can have my machine nearly unhearable when I'm just doing basic audio work, yet not let it run hot when I need more power. I like to play the occasional game, and the GFX delivers just perfectly (Crysis on max details is running just fine

)
