Doing this allows you to take the external files with your Ableton Live project. When you click ‘Collect All and Save’, Ableton collects all your samples and puts them in the project folder. You will then see the dreaded ‘Sample Offline’ warning littered throughout your project. If you move your folder to another computer, these files won’t be moved with it. When Ableton Live opens your work, it will load any files that you are using that are located elsewhere on your computer (such as loops and samples). If you want to transfer your work to another computer, whether via USB or a cloud drive, you need to click File > ‘Collect All and Save’. This means you will need to copy the whole folder. You may want to move your work to a different location on your computer. This is because Ableton Live needs multiple files to open your work, so it collects them in a folder. The first thing is that when you save a project for the first time, you should click on File > ‘Save Live Set As…’ Note that Ableton Live doesn’t save your work as one file, it saves it as a folder. But you’d be surprised how many students get it wrong. If you watch the video above, it’s a pretty straight forward task. So I have decided to make this video on saving your work properly in Ableton Live. These questions come from both teachers and students alike. This may seem like a pretty straight forward topic, but I get questions about this all of the time. Tired of students losing their work? Watch this video!
