Cheers. I just bought a 74gig 10,000 rpm disc and want to put it in, but trying to decide best way to do it - the other is a 300g 7,200. Reason i got it (and a memory upgrade) is live was getting sluggish, particularly with being able to preview midi clips (which I know is a memory hog), but i was a...

Hey guys - To get the best general performance out of live (using this machine for composing rather than djing), am I better to make the faster drive my XP/Ableton software drive, and put samples and the library on the slower drive, or vice-versa. My goal is overall speed, and hopefulling being able...

thanks longjohns - re the test tone i have found no 'sound latency issues' at all per se, but i will try dropping it a notch or two to see if i get improvement. the external usb drive is only used for my djing files, i never use it in production, and when i am not using it i turn it off - however i ...

Hi guys, just bumping this as i am still having the problem three weeks later - I am updating the original post here too with more info - any insights would be appreciated. Text follows: Something strange has happened to my Ableton since the upgrade to 6.05, and it hasn’t corrected with 6.07 – do yo...

Hi, Having grief re ableton in that the interface will occassionally freeze during work for about 6 or so seconds, music keeps playing, peak levels etc get stuck, then all back to normal. The tunes never freeze, its the graphics, but if i am in the middle of something its imposible to track it durin...

Hi there, Anyone know if this is a sign of a bad installation or an incorrect setup? I have a Novation Remote SL 25, which runs an application called Automap Universal Server in the system tray. Now when i go to shutdown live - I get a message saying "one or more slave rewire applications are r...

Had updated my drivers for the EMU 1820m card, but i hadnt updated the application software, updated this and now its working like a charm at 5ms latency. Had no issues in live 5, but it was a necessity for live 6.

Cheers.

Hi there,

No additional midi hardware except a simple usb midi controller - might have to look further into how I have set up i guess!

Can I ask if you have noticed any difference with different PatchMix templates? Whats ur standard setup>

Cheers!

Hello, After upgrading to 6 i have distortion on sound; so i increased latency from 7 to 10 using Asio on a Emu 1820m. The distortion is fine in playing a set at home but still get a little crackle on the test tone. My PC is a dual core AMD 3800, plenty of memory and my soundcard is and Emu 1820m, j...
