Audio Glitches while VIEWING Plug-in

Ableton has audio crackles/glitches ONLY while I am VIEWING the UI of an audio plug-in. I can use the plug-in (not any specific plug-in) just fine, but when I open the plug-in to view it, then I get audio glitches. In this particular case I'm using this little Hornet plug-in that displays the tempo ...

Re: Performance BETTER when Ableton NOT foreground window - why?

Again, my desire is to vet my brand new MacbookPro retina (a cheaper one, 2.4khz 256gb SSD, 8gb ram etc.) w.r.t handling a serious onstage workout... Regarding "finger->controller->Live->audio->air->ear" post, I appreciate that - let's just say - essential code is executing. But, did you n...

Re: Performance BETTER when Ableton NOT foreground window - why?

Perhaps there is (or should be) a setting in Ableton to 'de-prioritize graphics' so they don't - ridiculously - murder the audio in favor of clean meters.

Known setting?
thanks again
Jim

Performance BETTER when Ableton NOT foreground window - why?

I have my new MacbookPro laptop and putting Ableton through its paces to make sure I can render several sounds at once LIVE in real time without hitting the CPU/Memory/Disk wall on my sleek new machine (2.4Khz i5, 256GB/SSD, 8Gig) - not the ultimate but should hopefully suffice for maybe up to 6 lay...

Re: Can I nudge the tempo "permanently" not temporarily?

Thanks much - that works!!
I use Ableton w/launchpad and loops that ARE the tempo, so this enables me to make subtle changes.

Much appreciated!!

Can I nudge the tempo "permanently" not temporarily?

I understand that I can nudge the tempo up, but then it drops right back down. I'd like to nudge the tempo from e.g. 75bpm to 77bpm and LEAVE IT at 77bpm, not have it fall back to 75bpm. I don't want to tempo tap while playing because when you tempo tap while playing it gets whacked immediately and ...

Is there a way to "Page" the Red Selection Box for Launchpad

Does anyone know of a way to drop the red selection box by EIGHT lines (scenes) instead of just one line in Session view? I'm using LaunchPad, launching various loops, etc., and keeping the 8th line empty, so as to silence that column. Fine. So I have 32 lines (scenes) in groups of eight, with, ever...

Re: Video possibilities with Live ?

So, there's NO WAY to launch video clips for live performance??
Dear Ableton - is there any solution?
I love Ableton for launching clips during performances, but I'd also like to launch videos!
thanks
Jim
