*SOLVED* How to re-open the Demo project when opening Ableton Live 11 Trial?

Hi there,

I’m totally new to Ableton 11.

Today, when I opened the trial, there was a demo project which I found nice.

After I accidentally closed it, I can’t find it again.

(I even uninstalled Ableton and installed it again, but when I then opened Ableton the demo session wasn’t shown anymore which was weird.)

Does anyone know how to retrieve it?

I’d appreciate any tip.

Cheers :)

Answering my own question (in case someone struggles to find it as well)…

The answer (at least something that comes to close to an answer) is to be found in the Knowledge Base:

Ableton › Using Live › File handling › Location of the default Demo Set

https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/artic ... t-Demo-Set

On Mac:

1. Right-click on the Live application from the Applications folder in Finder
2. Select "Show Package Contents"
3. Then go to this folder: Contents/App-Resources/Core Library/Lessons/Demo Songs

There, you will see:

- Ninajirachi - In The Rain (Live 11 Intro Demo).als
- Ninajirachi - In The Rain (Live 11 Standard Demo).als
- Ninajirachi - In The Rain (Live 11 Suite Demo).als

Question answered :)

Thank you! But... Are you also able to load the "walk through" instructions that initally showed up on the right side of the screen as well? I can't seem to get these back after reloading the demo track.
