Undo Collect and Save

[davaughn]

Hey-

I used the collect and save option to send a project to collaborator and now I'm stuck w/ a 400MB file. Is there a way to undo that and remove all the samples that came from outside the project folder?

Thanks!

Don't think so...

If you are sending it to someone though and you have external samples used in your project then wont they need that content too?

Try deleting all of the project's external audio files that were created from the collect all and save, and then use Live's file manager to re-associate the files still present in their original location.

Don't forget to make a copy of everything first.

this is Live's fine logic considering "save".

you hit save?
HA! no you dint save... you just f**ed up everything!!
You now have lost all your undo steps!
you can go and f** yourself.
Congratulations!

Im so pissed of with this one, years now.
