hi rutgermuller, I warped a clip in arranger using complex pro and beats on OSX 10.4.11 with Presonus FireBox + latest drivers. I changed the sample rate and latency error compensation in preferences quite often. Also switch to and from beats<->complex pro. This did not crash Live. It would really h...

hi rutgermuller,

thank you very much for your feedback.

I tried on PC as you described which worked fine. I will check ASAP on a MAC + presonus Firebox.

Btw. did you get crashreports? This would be a great help.

hi, I tried on PC and MAC and changeing the sample rate worked fine for me. Maybe you could send me some crashlogs directly to mayrock@ableton.com. In your email, please reference this thread and include a zip file containing all crashlogs (Crashlogs are located in <your home folder>/Library/Logs/Cr...

hi doppio, In order to diagnose your problem, I would ask you to contact support@ableton.com. In your email, please reference this thread and include a zip file containing all crashlogs (Crashlogs are located in <your home folder>/Library/Logs/CrashReporter (OS X 10.5) or <your home folder>/Library/...

hi rutgermuller, Sorry for the problems. To dig deeper, I'd need more informations: - do you have a particular Live set with which the problem occurs? - which Live build-in effects and instruments are contained in the set? - does the set contain VST/AU-Plugins and if, which and which version? - do y...

hi unclebenz, We fixed a bug concerning automations poping up under certain circumstances (#6465). I'd suggest trying out the current time limited beta 8.1.2b5 which includes a huge amount of fixes http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=136947 to check if it fixes also your problem. Sorry...

hi unclebenz,

Which version of Live do you use exactly? Is it 8.1.0?

hi LoopStationZebra, So it seems to be high peak load and no disc problem. If you are not using Complex Pro, I suggest that you try to increase the audio in/out buffer size in preferences. Additionally it would be interessting if the problems persist if you remove your MIDI controllers and maybe rem...

Hi LoopStationZebra,

I did not discover any crackles when I played your set. I have you admit I did not have the plug-ins you used. When experiencing the crackles, does the hard disc overload indicator light up in the right upper corner of Live?

hi westlicht,

sounds like a different problem. Sure, VSTs could stream NaNs but I wouldn't think that is the problem. Sending the set definitely makes sense but it may take some time to investigate.

hi LoopStationZebra,

to help you further, I'd like to ask if you can send me your log.txt and maybe the smallest possible self contained set (with samples) demonstrating the crackles for investigation directly to mayrock@ableton.com ?

best wishes,
matthias

Hi MarcAaron and tlennon,

to help you further I need to know

- the name of plug-in and type (AU/Vst) you experienced the problems with
- platform (MAC/Win) and OS version
- the exact version of Live

best wishes,
matthias
