Where are my FX presets ???

Post by humeka » Tue Jan 10, 2006 5:36 pm

I just bought version 5 and I have a little problem... I can't find the FX presets !?!
I can see there's a special folder for this purpose but it's totaly empty !
is it normal ? is this new version without any FX preset ?

ok, the ableton support gave me the solution !
for those who could encounter this problem, here's what to do :

Sometimes, a fresh installed Live 5 can’t locate the preset files or lessons. You will then need to copy these files manually.
Here’s what you have to do:


OS X:
CRTL-Click the Live 5 application. Choose „Show package contents“ from the menue.
Then open the folder "App-Resources" and copy the "Essential.alp" and
"Lessons.alp" on your desktop.
Now open your Live application and choose "install Live pack" from the
menue and open the .alp files.

Windows:
Locate the .alp files and copy them to a directory of your choice.
You can find the missing content in here:
\Ableton\Live 5.0.3\Resources\Default packages
Open Live application and choose "install Live pack" from the
menue and open the copies.alp files.


hope it helps people in need ;-)
