Ableton Forum

hey guys, i am having an issue where "Buffering Samples" keep flashing in the status bar during playback. i think its causing fluctuation in the playback tempo!... How do i keep that from happening? Computer: 2017 Imac 4.2ghz quad core, 40gb ram, and 1Tb SSD Interface: Apollo Twin duo thun...

No, I don’t have any external clock. I am using just my Imac Apollo Twin interface, and Akai 249 keyboard to make beats. I can hear it speed up or slow down and back to normal again. I googled my problem and I found that someone has already had the same problem some years ago in this Forum and he co...

I am making a beat with the Bpm set at 120 but playback sounds faster than 120 bpm. The bpm will randomly fluctuate either faster or slower during playback. I don’t have no tempo automation so I don’t know what’s going on. Additionally, I haven’t warped anything in simpler because I am only using on...

It has 3GHz and that’s not really enough power per core if u are running CPU intensive VSTs.. when it comes to music production quad core is enough and anything above it is really over kill! For example, a 4ghz quad core will outperform a 3GHz 10 core computer any day because it has more power per c...

Additionally, i have optimize my energy saver so that my computer doesnt sleep when i am using Ableton, so i don't know what's going on!

what do you mean by "processor clocking down?" Do you mean does my cpu meter go up during playback? or are you referring to my cpu performance in the Activity Monitor on my MacBook Pro? Because i am not experiencing any CPU crackling or spikes during playback its just the Tempo of my sessi...

The tempo is the only thing that changes. i can significantly hear it either playing slower or faster than its intended tempo. what bothers me is that the metronome slows or speeds along with the tempo fluctuation. i have an "oxygen 49" midi keyboard connected to my computer via usb. Addit...

I don't think i recorded any automation because if that's the case there would be a red square on the tempo tab at the top left. Its just that the song tempo cannot stay consistent. it will play at the right tempo and then i will close the set and open it on another time and it will play either fast...

Between, i am using Apollo Twin Duo as my audio interface!

Thanks for the reply. I am using instruments from Ableton's instrument section (Analog, collision, operator, etc...), as well as Ableton drums from the drum packs i installed from their website. The playback is playing faster than the BPM set. When i enabled the metronome, i can hear it speed up and...

Hi, I am using all ableton instruments to make a song, no loops or samples. However, after playing back my song for a while it starts to slow down. Sometimes it will play faster than the original tempo which is 120 bpm. Anyone know why it's doing that? Setup: Ableton live 10.1.3 MacBook Pro (Retina,...

Hi, i am working on a beat in Ableton using only midi clips. My problem is that the tempo is inconsistent every time i open the set. For example, the set will play at the intended tempo of 120 bpm one day, and i will open the same set the next day and it will play at either a faster or slower tempo....
