Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

Thanks for the reply. I'm also using internal SSD – not external. (Everything on my HD is from internal SSD) That is puzzling that my performance of loading that particular kit takes SO much longer – especially since our specs are basically identical, and I have even more ram! What is going on here...

Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

I have no idea... You need to go and see someone or get a replacement and see if you have the same issue. I ordered a brand new iMac back in 2015 and when it turned up I was disappointed with a few things but I never said anything and just assumed that's how it should be... So pis*ed I never sent it...

Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

Hi, sorry for the delay! Okay so 'selector kit warm' loads up in under a second for me. But it's taking it from the internal SSD, not external. Sorry, earlier I said all my samples were on external but I meant all 3rd party samples and libraries. My spec. 2020 iMac 27inch 3.8 8 core i7 40gig ram 213...

Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

Bottom line is you shouldn't be having trouble... Your iMac is a beast just as mine is... Maybe think of taking it into an apple store and showing them what happens and why it's frustrating. I can't see any reason why you're having issues as I don't have any with pretty much the same spec. Hope you ...

Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

Yeah, just download the app and run the tests.

It'll give you a score and you can compare that to systems of the same spec to see if yours is working okay.

Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

I just loaded in that Selector kit and I do get the progress bar but it's for a millisecond.

I also did the test and I got to 592 tracks.

Worth noting that I only have 40gig of ram compared to your 62.

Did you run the geekbench yet to see how that's stacking up?

Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

Yeah, unfortunately the graphics card will impact the whole system performance. It obviously does primarily improve video/graphics etc also though. This isn't to say that the standard shouldn't be fine, it's just a factor to consider... The iMac has to run a 5k display after all. I'll check the load...

Korg Volca Drum Midi help

Hey Ya'll, Just playing around with my new Volca Drum and I've seen there are some nice Volca Drum max4live controller devices. But it looks as though you have to set up a midi channel per part (6parts on the Volca) However, does anyone know if there is a way to have each Volca part assigned to a no...

Re: Mediocre Ableton performance on new iMac 2020?

Hi, I have the same new iMac as you, had it for a few months now and I'm not experiencing any lag or performance issues (and all my samples are on an external sad). What graphics card did you go for? That can have a serious impact on performance, especially if you're using duel screen or sidecar. I ...
