EnableRewire not working with Options.txt

Post by Barrylyndon » Tue Oct 24, 2023 9:11 pm

Hi,
I'm trying to enabling Rewire mode to use Live with Logic as a host.
I've created the document Options.txt with "-EnableRewire" in the Preferences folder in the User Library.
But when I'm opening Live, I receive the message "The options file contains an unknown option which will be ignored.
Would it be possible to know how to enable Rewire and get rid of this notification?
Thank you.

Rewire is no longer functional, Propellorheads themselves stopped supporting it years ago. Keep in mind that anything in the options.txt file can be depreciated at any time as they are not officially supported by Ableton.

Ableton Link is what you can use to sync Logic and Live these days.

The great thing about Rewire + Ableton was the Audio exchange directly into Ableton as Host. I dont see any other way or method to do this any more?

Since the 2MB Rewire.dll is still shipped in 12, any chance to allow that as unsupported option like in 11? Audio out seems still doable via the other 3 options in .txt?
