# `Live_set` [](https://badge.fury.io/rb/live_set)
This program can:
1. Make a copy of an Ableton Live 12 set and save to Live 11 format.
2. Report the version compatibility of an Ableton Live set.
3. Detect environmental problems, for example unwanted directories called `Ableton Project Info` in parent directories.
4. Display the location and size of the samples in each track.
5. Clearly show if a Live set is ready to be transferred to a Push 3 Standalone, and what needs to be changed if not.
a. Detect sets that are too large to be frozen, which means they are too large to transfer to Push 3 Standalone.
b. Detect tracks that are not frozen, which means they are not ready to be transferred to Push 3 Standalone.
c. Shows clips that are have not been collected within the set’s project directory.
This program has successfully converted the Ableton Live 12 demo project to Live 11.
