Win 7 64bit 3.2mhz 4gig ram 1tb HD Live 8 latest

Now that I am finalizing the music for the singers, Live is having frequent crashes requiring reboots. In fact so many I stopped sending crash reports. If 9 is going to be 64bit and possibly stable I expect it will be out sometime late next year if not longer. Is there a way to move the music from live to Sonar or Record, also of the two which would be best? I can't afford to have singers standing around while I am rebooting. I left Sonar for the speed (and at one time stability) of Ableton and still have my old copy of Sonar. I am willing to upgrade to Sonar X1 if it will help. Also if it is better sonically, I could borrow a friends Computer with Reason & Record for a small fee. The ladies will be available 2nd week of Oct. so I have at least a week to transfer everything. Any informed advise would be welcome.

I think there are no way other than exporting each track to wavs.
FWIW I thought Sonart X1 Studio is now $99 sale.

Thank you pencilrocket,
I searched the other forums and came to the same conclusion. I bought the upgrade to Sonar X1 and am trying to relearn it. I had forgotten how convoluted it was even with a new interface. Anyway all I could do was transfer waves of the tracks then remix and eventually I will have to remaster. What a royal pain!!! No where near as fast as Ableton But So far no reboots either. so I guess it works out time wise. The sound seems to be a little more open too. I think I can live with it.

Thank you again for your help pencilrocket.
