Petition to remove automatic deletion of backups
Petition to remove automatic deletion of backups
This is the most annoying thing ever. Ableton deletes backups automatically after 10 saves, which has screwed me multiple times when I needed to go back and dig up an old idea that I saved over. I want to keep all the backups. At least give us the option to turn this off.

+1
You can rename your Liveset-File within the Project, so you have Versions (e.g. CoolSongV1, CoolSongV2, etc.). For each new renames file Live will create 10 new backup files in the project Backup folder. However I noticed when you have different Live Set files in one project folder Live struggles to identify unused Files in the project when using the File Manager to clean-up your project... So yeah, an option for unlimited backup files would be much appreciated.

Re: Petition to remove automatic deletion of backups
In my opinion it’s a much better habit to manually save incremental versions.
So I would vote for simply removing backups.
