At one point when erasing adv files (from imported akai cds) Live would ask if I would like to also delete the associated waveforms (or something like that). Now it just deletes the adv and leaves the associated samples, and I have to track them down and delete it manually. Why would this have changed?

Does the problem not make sense or is there just no answer at this time?

Ok, after more fiddling I've come to the conclusion that if you rename the folder from the default 'Akai-#' format, or move the folder to anywhere other than the default 'Imports' folder, then the delete 'waveforms, too' option disappears. If the adv files can still be loaded with the referenced samples, why doesn't the delete waveform functionality still work?

I don't know if this is a bug or feature request but either way it would be nice.
