Re: Major Problems With Live 11

Hi all, I have made exhaustive testing and the conclusion is that Live 11 definetely has a performance issue compared to Live 10, not on macOS but on Windows 10. I won't make a duplicate so you'll find details are in my posts on the other topic here https://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=...

Re: Live 10 Performance Test

I have done extensive tests on both a MacbookPro and a brand new PC, you can check resulsts in this other topic : https://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=242943 As I've checked performance with 16, 128, 256, 384 and 512 tracks it doesn't really fit here but I thought it might interest peop...

Re: CPU-Overload and glitches in L11 / Windows10 [hopefully solved]

I made the same tests on a 2017 MacbookPro equipped with a 4-cores i7 at 2.8GHz, 16GB of RAM at 2133 MHz and an SSD 1TB drive. It's a very capable machine which I use daily for my work. The song is the 'what's new' live set from Live 10 which has 16 tracks. By duplicating them I build 128 tracks, 25...

Re: CPU-Overload and glitches in L11 / Windows10 [hopefully solved]

I've had difficulties with Live 11 on my brand new PC I assembled, which is a true monster featuring 64GB of 4000-MHz ram, an i9 10980XE with 18 cores which turboes up to 4.8 GHz, a 2TB M2 WD Black SSD, and an RTX 3090 - which is irrelevant to Live but I had to mention that display cannot be slowed ...

Re: Push not working in Live 10

Glad you got it working. :) Enjoy I got the same problem with my Push 2, "push" logo stuck at Live 10 launch. No red frame in Live session to signal Push2, but in Preferences, Push2 was enabled as control surface. Fear. Hate computers. Etc. I don't know what exactly made it work fine, but...

Re: Since most people call Live "Ableton" ...

Well "Live" is not aan easy product name as peoples think you're talking about playing on stage. So i always say "Ableton Live".

Likewise, peoples generaly don't get it when I say "I use push on live".

You use ... what?

Re: Live doesn't like my Scarlett 2i4

the way to stop that is before you open live, you have to go into windows volume settings and change the sampler rate from 44 to 48 then back again. or whatever rate you use live on....windows will always reset it to 44 when you turn on you pc....this happens with 2i4 specifically. This is not a bu...

Re: Live doesn't like my Scarlett 2i4

... doesn't Win10 do sneaky things like always accept upgrades and things like that? Yeah well, if you're happy with a reliable W7 install my advice is don't upgrade to W10 if you don't have a need for. W10 is faster, really, but W7 is very reliable. I did the upgrade because of a change of motherb...

Re: Simpler inconsistency in browsing samples

my guess is that Live doesnt allow the viewing of the Categories>Samples directory on Push as that would mean ALL pack's samples listed there, and showing a huge list in Push could get real slow. that's just a guess though. to load a specific sample at the moment, you must either know which pack it...

Simpler inconsistency in browsing samples

When adding an empty Simpler into a track, Push2 display says "Press browse to load a Sample". Problem is, when you hit Browse the browser doesn't show the "Samples" directory you can see in Live navigator. But ... my old Live 8 library directory appears in the browser ... and I ...

Re: What is a torrent File and how do i open it?

AHAHAH that would be a smart move. In the 90's there was a PC video game called StarFlight, it asked for an anti piracy question at start, related to the games manual. If you replied wrong, it didn't stop you from playing. But after some time, like two or three weeks, you were playing and all of a s...

Re: Live doesn't like my Scarlett 2i4

I made my reply before I saw your message telling you fixed it. Can you elaborate how you fixed it? Also, if I can make an advice, switch your Win 7 to Win 10. I was very upset by the terrible W8 (I switched back to W7), but W10 is much better and it IS faster than W7. Really. And I had no program m...

Re: Live doesn't like my Scarlett 2i4

I have a 18i8 which is not so very different from your 2i4. I found that Live and Focusrite USB devices are very sensible to the USB port you use. Depending on hubs, USB controllers, the time Live takes to find your Scarlett can vary a lot. My advice is that you make a list of all of your USB ports ...

Re: No velocity in step sequencer?

I'm a little late on this topic, but I just realized yesterday the step sequencer use a fixed veolicty of 100 for pads, which I believe is nowhere explained in documentation. For a moment I thought I had a hardware problem, quite weird as real-time recording had the pads giving me dynamic velocity. ...
