I can promise you that if I bought Reaktor as well, that I'd never get any music done again. ;) this is a bottomless pandora's box that I need to figure out first.

gonna learn this first and focus on keeping all sounds in house, so to speak.

So how did you guys go about the process. How did you receive the license? I want to make sure buyer is secured as well as myself when I sell.

Thanks,
Scott

fairly painless, just requires some trust on both sides:

1. Seller emails Abes to request transfer. Provides his email and the buyer's under which live is registered. Both parties have to have 8.1 of course.

2. Abes transfer the registration and email both parties. Took us a day.

3. Buyer and Seller both hit the Authorize button. Live removes the m4l license fro
seller and authorizes buyer automagically.

4. The payment arrangements between buyer and seller are independent from Abes. If
you know/trust each other, you can pay first or pay after the transfer. If you don't know each other, maybe get $100 up front, do the transfer, and then get the balance? Just a suggestion.

Scott is selling.

Scott, I can vouch for Poster. Not because he's honest (because he's not), but because I know where he lives. :P

I jest, of course. Go make a deal, kids!

So, Neb
Does the computer with license on it have to be connected to internet for de-authorization and transfer of license? I always do offline authorizations with my software because I don't allow my DAW comp internet access--Windowa, ya know!

Thanks for all the info,
Scott

No idea about offline. I simply connect for the authorizations and then disconnect. So long as I'm nit using IE, I have no issues with being online, but I do limit it.

I think when you use your offline authorization files, live should take care of removing the m4l license.

For starters, some newer better buffer shufflers, more controlled LFOs. That'll keep me going for a bit as I dig deeper. Eventually, I'm looking for Reaktor-like ensembles where I can do crazy grain sample stuff.

I don't have any fancy controllers yet, so I can wait on the controller integration for a while. I'm mainly looking for ways to be more musical in Live.
