WELCOME TO MY NEW VIDEO TUTORIAL SERIES! Feedback is much appreciated.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------­----------------
If Native Instruments Massive crashes Ableton, Logic or Cubase whenever you try to launch it or open an old file -- don't worry! All you have to do is simply rebuild the database file. To do so simple delete the database file.

You can find it here:

Xp - C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Application Data\Native Instruments\Massive
Windows 7 - C:Users/*Username*/AppData/Local/Native Instruments/Massive
Mac - Username\Library\Application Support\Native instruments\Massive

The file is called 'NIMassiveDataBase'

Once it's deleted, try opening Massive again, The file you deleted will rebuild itself. Problem fixed! Note that it is the cracked copy that crashes like this. Buy the legit version and this will most likely not happen again.

  • @runest25 you need to relocate the vsti file to the plug ins folder of ableton. Look under preferences and you should have it from there

  • Does this fix the problem of Massive not showing up in Ableton live by chance? If not does anyone know a video that can help with that?

  • awsome dude! thank you very much!!

  • you sir are a fucking genius!

  • THANK YOU!!!!! NO HOMO!

  • @deejayzyx Actually i resolved this not long ago by enabling the view of hidden files.

  • @pxndx6969 when the file gets to 1.2megs it starts to crash... has anyone tried to give the FILE administrator rights? I'm going to try that next
