I think we're talking past each other.
I don't own Max for Live. If I want to use it, I either need to upgrade to Ableton Suite for $500 or I need to upgrade to Standard and buy Max for Live separately (also $500).
There's a huge ecosystem of tools that are implemented as Max for Live packages which I cannot access because I haven't paid the toll.
I see that even this new Extensions SDK is only available to people who have paid for the full Suite edition.
I'd describe that as a market opportunity.
- SoleilAbsolu 4mo agoFWIW you should be "able to" get 2ndhand Ableton Suite licenses for significantly less...IIRC I paid ~$350 a few years ago.
- peteforde 4mo agoPlease say more
- 0x1ceb00da 4mo agoYeah. How does ableton handle the transfer? Do you mail them the transfer request, they generate a new key and mail it to the new owner?

- easyThrowaway 4mo agoThey also offer substantial discounts if you attend their seminars. I was able to buy Live Standard for roughly 150€ a few years ago.
