Can I use projects created with Live 8 in Live 7?

Post by fattofatto » Sat Jun 06, 2009 9:21 pm

Sorry if this is covered but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I've been trial-ing Live 8 and have created a project. Will I be able to keep this project when I go back to Live 7? If yes, (and I hope it is!) then how do I go about doing it?
Cheers everyone!

nope.

render to .wav and you can use that, but you can't open a Live 8 set in Live 7, it's always been like this.

Thanks for your help on this! So I suppose my only option would just be to place the .wav file onto it's own clip and build around it, right?
Cheers.
