In the Max 7 folder, there is a sub-folder named "Max for Live Devices". This seems straightforward enough--but my M4L instruments are also automatically saved in the Ableton/User Library/Presets/Instruments/Max Instruments folder. So I always have two copies... should I just delete the copy in the "Max for Live Devices" subfolder?

I personally keep both. The files that end up in your Live library are the .amxd files, and the folders that are created inside your Max folder are structured more like Max projects, with folders for code, patchers etc.

So they aren't really 'copies' in the literal sense.

Should M4L Devices be saved in "Max 7" or "Ableton" folder?
