Is there a way to point Ableton to the core library?

Post by Rhypht » Tue Feb 03, 2015 1:05 am

Live seems to have lost the core library file, as in, it doesn't know where it's at. All of the built in instruments, effects, etc. are all gone, and the only lists that populate are my Plug-Ins folder, and the Packs folder.

I know where the core library file is, but Live doesn't. How do I tell Live where to look for this file, and more importantly, how do I keep this problem from occurring randomly once a week.

Yikes!

You may have to re-set Live

Already tried, that was the first thing I attempted. Even a full reset didn't fix anything.

A post here suggests removing files.db

What version of Live 9 are you using?
