CPU Spikes

I know this has been discussed before but I haven't seen any obvious solutions emerging. The problem began since installing the L11 Trial - but seems to be backward-problematic, as in my previous version which I'd moved to another drive before installing the trial now has the same issue. Massive CPU...

You can right-click the "fragmented time" marker and remove it.
Thanks. What causes it though? What's it for? How do we avoid getting it?

Fragmented Time

Hi everyone, I've been coming into a problem I've not seen before and was hoping for some help. I'm working with a friend, and every time I send him a MIDI clip, he imports it or even moves them around the set, ableton creates something called Fragmented Time, which puts everything out of sync. Its ...

Re: Cant sing to metronome cause it throws me out of the feelz

I've recently restarted playing drums. As a kid when I "played", I never played with a click. It showed. So I was wondering how to approach it and not feel like its a chore, and I've taken to adopting an attitude that really helps me. The click is not the slave master. Its not there beatin...

Re: Ableton is the worst music software ever

Any good experiences with cards + Ableton in windows? I used Novation Nio 2:4 for a long time (win7-win10) bit dated now and it took a beating, but was really solid, no issues and still runs. I replaced it was the Novation Audiohub 2:4 - but I did find I often had troubles opening it in ableton. Ge...

Planning Purchases

Hi! I feel like I have wasted a lot of money in my life - as a young drummer I was definitely guilty of the "buy more drums and you'll be a better drummer" fallacy - but since then, I buy gear and it's often not quite what I want it to be or think it is. Is it that I don't do my research? ...

Re: Do you think Ableton Support sucks ?

Whilst I have been with you most of the argument, I think support has deteriorated somewhat, although I've not opened so many tickets, and yes a digital company where people can work from home should be impacted less by a pandemic, I think you lost me at the two admissions: 1 - you don't believe in ...

Re: Post your most obscure Ableton Live knowledge

I dunno how widely known this is, and its a bit of a long winded work-around/hack than a secret tip, but hopefully someone will find it useful. For many years I was trying to make a step-sequencer in ableton, without M4L, without plug-ins etc etc and I think I asked on here years ago, and generally ...

Buffer size

Hi! I'm trying to fine tune my e-drums into ableton, took me ages but finally got it working, without latency and without losing too much sensitivity in the drums. BUT, every now and then (its played up at least once almost every time I try to do 32 bar take of anything) it glitches out, I get a CPU...

Ableton and MPC ONE / maybe other MPCs or Standalones

Anyone doing the combo? How are you finding it? I am having some serious issues that I don't really know where to begin working around. I'm trying to run it in controller mode, and I'm wondering, whats the point? I can't get transport buttons to correlate (rec. need holding down so can only record o...

Re: Link and Ipad Ready Score Programs

Hey yur2die4 Thank you for the input. It's frustrating cos it seems to me this should be really obvious and simple. From what you've said I think I need: Link to Midi App - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/link-to-midi/id1066216595 and any ipad manuscript app that supports midi input. Thank you for the...

Hi All, thanks for reading I'm not sure this is actually production. I am integrating live drums and ableton and I know what I need but am not turning up a huge amount with google so I'm hoping for some recommendations here for a program/app for scoring music that fulfills the following: 1 - Be on a...

Re: The Forum needs a new subforum: "Help & Troubleshooting"

What else would you discuss? But as in, in reality, if you look at the numbers of posts that are about something other then "help me with my problem", actually you'd end up with about a post a week, for what you might as well use carrier pigeon or fax. Unless you are saying that the true e...
