Newb here - how to recover a set that keeps crashing?

Post by Uncle GroOve » Mon Dec 21, 2015 12:42 pm

First day of testing 9.5 and serendipitously laid down a beat I had buzzing around my brain.
The session was really very simple: two instances of Reaktor 6.0 and one AAS Ultra Analog.
After I had programmed the main beat, tried dicking around with a controller modulating the main tempo.
That's really about it. Saved, closed and see ya. Today that same file keeps on crashing on launch (and I can't remember that beat anymore, LOL)
¿Hm?
What to do at this point? Is there a way I can access the single midi clip somewhere in the innards of 9.5?
My setup:
Mid 2012 Macbook Pro 13" 2.9 Ghz i7, OSX 10.9.5

Cheers
Paul

Hey Paul, so if you know where you saved the session to you can create a folder in the ableton sidebar with the session file as the location. Once you do this you can drag any track from that session into a new session. :lol:

Hope this helps!

Best of luck,

Good luck! Could be some plug-in wonkiness happening there.

I had a USB driver issue with my MOTU hybrid (when my thunder firewire adapter shit the bed and I had to go USB). Live was a nightmare until I updated the driver to the MOTU beta.
