popup window: "you have exceeded limitations...."?

Post by odysseysounds » Wed Dec 14, 2005 3:52 pm

i own a fully registered copy of live 5, and occasionally (it will only occur when i'm attempting to add live's built in synths/samplers) i will get an error window telling me i've exceeded the limitations of the program, and would i like to proceed in demo mode? why would this happen on a full copy? thanks, blake

Did you also buy Operator?

no, i didn't buy operator, and i see that it gives me the demo option when i try to run it. that makes sense; but i'm pretty certain i've gotten the same popup when i've tried to drop in clips that (i thought) used simpler and impulse...but those clips may have used operator, right? makes sense...thanks, i'll experiment again!

I'm having the same problem. It happens on the rythmic clips. Do I need to buy Operator?

Hi folks,

if you use Live sets or Live clips with an Operator you should get this "limitations" dialog box if you do not own the Operator.

ok, this makes sense. if you try to insert operator, you get the popup warning telling you that *operator* exceeds the feature limitation. if you try to insert a clip that *contains* operator (such as "rhythmic/chuggin") (unbeknownst to the humble user) you get a warning that simply says "this action would exceed feature limitations" with no explanation why, i.e. that it contains operator.

simple! thanks for the help.

Hey, but still, you don't HAVE to buy it right away, you CAN still check those clips see if you like what you hear, tweak them and what not ! But then... you may be caught ! (as I was) :wink:
