Cross Platform (Mac and PC)

Post by LutherBaker » Mon Jul 30, 2012 8:28 pm

I'd like to run Live on both a PC and a Mac.

If I choose AIFF as the audio format for both installs, can the PC installation open a Live session that was originally created on the MAC? and vice versa, can the MAC open and play a session created on the PC?

Thanks,
-Luther

Yes it can, whether you use .wav or .aiff

just be careful not to use AudioUnit plugins on the mac or any plugin for which there is no windows equivalent.


otherwise works great to go back and forth.
