Best to read the conversation, as indexing had nothing to do with the initial post

Thanks so much for this thorough explanation which makes everything clear! I was referring to the CPU meter in Apple's Activity meter. I now checked the CPU meter of LIVE itself and when idle it reads 0%, going up to about 6-8% when playing some instruments. So I guess all is well. Thanks again, ch...

Note: If you compare the idle performance of Live 12.0 or 11.3.25 with earlier versions on an Apple Silicon computer, you might notice a higher % CPU value in Activity Monitor. This is because while Silicon Macs offer both performance cores and efficiency cores, Live attempts to schedule all audio t...

Thanks Bob! Best to open Ableton, give it 10/15 minutes to do all the indexing (1st launch only) and then give it another try... On my Mac Studio with the same Ableton Live CPU usage with a new project is 1% so their should be something specific going on in your situation When you say CPU usage are ...

It’s on windows

Thanks for the clarification

I have reported this issue two years ago, when Avenger and Rapid have been my main synths with this problem. During this time Parawave has fixed Rapid, that the preset change now runs smooth. Ableton was able to reproduce this behaviour and told me as workaround to use VST2. Now after two years I g...

Best to contact Ableton and ask for a refund

Note: Saving a default configuration does not save the current state of the plug-in. To save a specific preset or state, group the plug-in to a Rack and save the Rack to your User Library.

Unfortunately this is not possible, you have to do this manually - what I've have done is to open an existing product, duplicate the track with the VST2, save the VST2 preset, replace the VST2 with the VST3 equivalent, open the just saved preset, make sure the track sounds similar and then delete th...

Did you select this Behringer interface as an input in Ableton?

I think you'll need the intro version for that

I'm assuming you're using a Mac? Because these copies are created by Finder if during a copy action someone chooses not to overwrite but to have multiple copies of a already existing file
