More Insight To Live Link Needed
Wow! Cheers to Ableton team for the new Link coming out! Excited to try out the link.
Got a question about a scenario. When two laptops are linked running Live 9.5 which laptop is the master or is there any that are the master since anyone can control the tempo?
I'm wondering if I can use this in substitution for something like Vienna Ensemble Pro setup, where I can use two laptops running Ableton and use one as the laptop that handles orchestra VSTs?
When I "link" them together will I be able to take both laptops and mixdown exactly what was recorded during the live sessions we have?
Thanks in advance for the knowledge shared! This has extraordinary potential if this can be done.

there's no master/slave relation.
I haven't tried it yet but as the tempo is the same, I suppose you could import your tracks from one project to another ( assuming that you record at the same time on both computers). Another way to do it would be to record the output of computer 1 to computer 2

Yea, that's what I was thinking about doing, only thing is if I record only the audio output then I can't make note adjustments using midi at mixdown.... will have to think about the flow ...... thanks for the input..Another way to do it would be to record the output of computer 1 to computer 2

From Ableton website :
Notice that Link doesn't send start/stop messages but you can still midi sync both laptop to start the recording at the same time.
If you want to keep the midi data, the first solution is the only way.How do we save our communal performance?
One way to do this is if each Live user records the performance in Arrangement View, then you merge sessions later.
Another way to record a communal performance is to mix everyone through a single mixer and record the stereo output. Alternatively, multi-track record to one of the Live users’ computers.

Link all devices running ableton live or apps and whatnot... then run the outputs to a pro tools system. That's my 2¢
