Ableton Forum

Ok, thanks for that-of course the audio outs need to be at least 2, I have a mixer which takes 3 which can be switched but 2 is ok I think.

However at the moment my vista system has a nightmare when running ableton audio glitches etc, Is there anyway I can have any reassurance that just changing ...

I have a dell dimension C521 with 1gb Ram and Windows Vista. I have had problems with glitching audio etc, I am now looking to buy an audio interface that is going to work on this system. I have version 6 of ableton.

I have recently purchased an m-audio oxygen controller which isn`t running too ...

I have tried altering asio4all and the latency comes right down and the glitching is reduced , tho it is still there.
I have tried reason on this system and that runs fine (tho I have been told its vista compliant) which makes me think it is ableton in particular that doesn`t want to tun with this ...

:cry: Oh No, still no luck even starting the music files playing cleanly without the glitching. Starting to look like I`m not gonna get ableton running on this system!

Not sure what to try next, its not clear to me whether its vista or the actual machine (drivers etc) that are not matching up with ...

:( Whenever I run ableton the screen on ASIO4 (WDM Device list) shows the sound driver (which is Sigma Tel Hda Codec) as being crossed out, when ableton is then closed the cross disappears and the device is listed as running again.
I also get ableton to run without the sound driver being crossed ...

I have tried the suggestions mentioned in the previous posts (thanks for help given btw) but still no joy.

I am using the asio4all driver and have tried another sound driver for the dell system (from dell) which has made no difference.

I know of people with a similar set up to myself who can run ...

Cheers for the suggestions, I`ll give it a go & see if it sorts anything!

Sorry no screenshot yet!
In the top left the music note is crossed out next to the
wdm device list which is sigma tel hda codec
ASIO buffer size below is 256 samples



Any ideas, i can see the latency is showing 8.7 now on ableton!
Still the same glitching problems!
Nothing in the top right-just ...

Just had a play around with the audio buffer, i`ve got ASIO4all running with it to try and clear it up but no joy so far? I`m pretty new to this - all my djing was done on vinyl before! Thanks for the help tho,
if anyone has any other suggestions I`d appreciate it, Cheers!

I have looked in preferences and output latency is 92.9ms, Ive tried changing it around-what should I be changing it to?

:cry: I have recently got a new Dell Dimension Desktop running Windows Vista (32-bit) I have got 1gig ram and a the onboard sound.
When running ableton I realised there was problems straight away, when any audio track is played through the program, glitching occurs-making the program unusable ...
