| Ervin Calvery 21.02.2012 | Some VSTs could be taken with you. You could just scan for them where they're stored on your external drive in Live's preferences on his computer. Others, like anything Ableton sells as add-ons (e.g. Operator, Analog) or most VSTs that can operate as stand-alone pieces of software (e.g. Native Instruments Maschine and Massive) need to be authorized on the computer they are running on. To run Max for Live devices, he would need to own Max for Live. |
| Armando Chrystal 21.02.2012 | I am using live and so is my friend but what if he had no vsts installed on his computer? and i had EVERYTHING on mine (vsts, samples, etc) would i still be able to work on his computer? |
| Ervin Calvery 21.02.2012 | If you are using Live, and have every part of the project (samples, VSTs, devices) saved on an external drive, and he also has Live and the same add-ons, yes. |
