Options.txt file. Live Versions: All Operating System: All The 'Options.txt' file allows the possibility to enable certain experimental features in Live. These options are mainly used for developing and internal testing but may be useful for you as well. Use CTRL-1(PC) / CMD-1(Mac) to narrow the grid, doubling the density of the grid lines (e.g., from eighth notes to sixteenth notes). Use CTRL - 2 (PC) / CMD - 2 (Mac) to widen the grid, halving the density of the grid lines (e.g., from eighth notes to quarter notes).
I downloaded the demo version of the PSP MixPack and for some odd reason, they don't show up in Live, yet they are in the correct folder (or so I assume) : Mac HD/Library/Audio/Plugins/VST...All the plugs are there but not in Live. Furthermore, I'm a bit confused between the VST folder I mentioned above and the one found in the User's Home directory (ie: from the finder--> 'your name'/library/audio/plugins/vst/....)
When looking into the VST plugin browser in Live, under the actual VST folder there is a sub-folder called 'local' and another called 'user', yet both of them contain VST plugs. All I want is to understand the difference between these different VST locations and why some plugins dont' show up at all in Live when they're clearly there in one of these folders (I did try changing their location but in vain).
Thanks for any help.
