HELP PLEASE! Frustrating problem with Massive and Ableton.
Posted: Mon May 28, 2012 1:49 pm
Okay, so let me start off by saying that I'm extremely new to all of this. Noob isn't the word. I've played around with a couple of tracks and uploaded them to the Soundcloud to start me off, but I really want some better sounds. So I got NI Massive. But I'm having problems getting it to work through Ableton. Atm I've just been playing around with Massive as a stand-alone, making new sounds and whatever. But I can't get anything into Ableton from there. I've looked at tutorials where people are saying to go to Preferences; File Folder and change the library to where the VST is located, which I have tried, yet Ableton keeps telling me to select a folder that is writable. I've also seen ones that show how to locate the .dll file, but when I try this, it doesn't locate anything! This is really a frustrating problem and I really don't want to give up before even starting, so please please please, any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.
