That sounds like it's well worth reporting!
Done.
Just wanted to make sure beforehand there no bug in my setup / thinking, as I could not find any other reporting on this.

How well is MIDI Sync doing for you?

What’s your experience with MIDI sync on the Move ?

For me, sync out is fine sending clock to other gear.
But when Move is set to MIDI sync in,
It’s about +10ms “late” compared to the rest of my machines (tried some different USB-MIDI interfaces and clock sources).
(Using v1.6 as well as the ...

By using "internal graphics" for Ableton it worked for me too !
Thanks Stuartm
That's great.
Maybe there should be an FAQ article about this :?:

Re: Max For Live Core Library LFO "Serious Program Error" crash

I've had the same issue with LFO, other devices live Color from MaxForCats etc.

The fix was to force Ableton to use the internal graphics rather than the GPU of my notebook.
I had to re-install the latest driver for the GPU (in my case NVIDIA) and use their tool to set the internal graphics for ...

Re: UC33e compared to launch control?

I've had a UC-33 some years ago.
I'd say the build quality on the LCXL is better, it's slim and sleek. Feels actually very good to work on.

Compared to the UC-33:
USB only - not a problem if your using it as Live controller only
Center detent of the pots - annoyed me a bit in the beginning as I don ...

Re: Crash on Set Load: "From 5 to Audio queue timeout"

Just for information in case somebody else comes across this:
Ableton support was very helpful in explain the error (a CPU overload) and pointing to potential solutions.

Eventually, I found the "faulty" thing being the imposcar VST (the original, not imp2).
GForce support say that imposcar is no ...

Crash on Set Load: "From 5 to Audio queue timeout" - solved

I'm recently getting random crashes of Live when loading a new set file.
Random being that I can load the set on other occasions, but sometimes it failes several times in succesion.

It's on Live 9.6.2 32bit version
OS is Win10 64bit
Audio is a Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 1st gen

The log reads for ...

Re: changing live session presets via scene change or midi ctrl?

Live's MIDI Clips support MIDI program changes as well as bank changes:
https://www.ableton.com/en/manual/clip-view/#bank-and-program-change

Now the key thing is:
your plug-in has to recognize those MIDI program changes.
Live's internal instruments and effects don't do that.
Some 3rd party plug ...

Re: free play?

Unfortunatelly this doesn't work, each loop sounds the same as previous one. Sound must change randomly over the time

That's quite different to "free playback".
Then you should look more into modulations, either in your sound sources (e.g. plug-ins) or in effects on the tracks.
A key thing for ...

Re: free play?

Use session mode.
Set global quantisation to "None".
Trigger the clips freely.
Make sure clips have different lengths.

Imposcar2 - wrong patch after loading a live set

Every now and then my imposcar2 plug-in tends to "forget" the preset it was saved to.

After loading a live set than contains one or several instances of imposcar2,
sometimes the plug-in is set to a different preset than the live set was saved to.
I haven't really found a way of reproducing the ...

Re: host multiple audio clips in one slot??

You won't need M4L, since you can "host" each audio file in a Simpler and put a number of them into chains of a rack.
You can crossfade between chains, if that's your idea of "morph".
