Saving samples in a Live project folder.
View this Thread in Original format

I'm about to start a couple of collaborative projects using my new found love Live 9

When using Logic there's an option to save all used audio/samples within the save folder, but I can't see a way to do this in Live.

Is it possible, or do I have to manually move all the samples I use over to the project folder?

Traitor!

Actually, what are your thoughts on disableton? I'm thinking of switching it up as I may need a dual platform sequencer and it's either Cubie or Live....

If I remember it's something like file/collect all and save....

Haha

Well to be honest 9.1 has been a bit of a revelation for me.

I tried versions 7 and 8 I think, and I never got much past opening a new project and trying to choose something before it crashed or did something stupid.

So far 9.1 has been rock solid apart from crashing when I tried to render a project containing the Virus, although I'm sure that's just a setting I've not discovered yet.

I've been using Cubase for years, and more recently Logic, but I'm going to ditch the Mac Mini I'm using and wait until I can get the Mac Pro, so in the meantime I also wanted a cross platform DAW to do collabs with and use on my 2nd PC DAW (because I only have 1 cubase license).

If you're using Logic now, Cubase would be the obvious choice as the workflow is basically identical.

BUT

I'm really liking the Live way of doing things for dance tracks. It's SO fast, and the workflow is a real boon to creativity for me now.

There are some obvious flaws such as the mixer still being Garageband basic, but then how much do you actually need for dance tracks. The routing isn't quite as comprehensive as something like Cubase either, but again it's enough for teh darnce.

The way it handles samples is miles and miles ahead of either Logic or Cubase. I guess you can do the same things in the other DAW's, but Live makes it simple and intuitive.

If I were recording audio or doing some score/ambient/real music I'd still use Cubase 100% though.

It's good to have both though.

64 here.

One frustration is that Live can only look at one VST plugin folder so I can't point at my 32 bit folder anyway. In any case, it doesn't automatically bridge like Cubase does.

cool thanks man - i think i might install the 64 bit version and see if its any better than currently

agree with you on workflow and anything audio related - sometimes you just need to get stuff down as quickly as possible before you lose the idea of what you wanted to do - in that respect its pretty savage
