Trading Live sets and version compatibility issues

[Faldoe]

I have Live 8.2.8. My friend has a lower version - 8. something, I'm not exactly sure. When I make a live set and save to send to him, he is unable to open it. Do you need to have the exact same Live version in order to trade sets with another person, and have them be compatible?

It depends on the specific version numbers, but yes usually it helps if you have the same version and make sure you're using exactly the same plug ins too.

So if he has an 8.2.X version - even if the last digit is not the same as mine, will our Live sets be compatible?

The easiest way to have same versions is to both update with the latest download from your Ableton accounts.
