Ableton Forum

Hey guys, hoping you can help me out here. And yes, I did search for this already.

Problems:
-For the last few months iTunes drag and drop causes 75% CPU usage and freezes the GUI temporarily (though audio continues). Also causes some crackling now. This issue seems to get worse the further on I ...

Alright, so it looks like with the new Macbook Pros (touchpad, this fall), the keyboard (version 1) will only work if plugged into a powered USB hub. It "powers on" from the bus, but it won't actually work unless you use the hub.

Ugh. Wtf. First my presonus firebox couldn't be bus-powered, now this ...

Hm, I'm wondering if it's the new macbook pro giving me trouble, not the software. I have my old one sitting around here, I'll try updating and reporting back.

I have an oxygen v1, should have specified, and I have tried with and without Reason. Which driver versions are you using?

Hey guys,

Anyone have their Oxygen 8 working with the most recent updates of OSX and Live (7.0.12)? Mine seems to be recognized by my computer (the new macbook pro), Ableton, and Reason, but nothing seems to actually let me use my Oxygen.

Notes, pitchbend, nothing works. I've gotten my UC33e and ...

I have 36gb free (with my cache cleared), nothing that should be biting me. I let the cache max out at 10gb, but I clear it way before that. And with 36gb free I'm definitely still getting the glitches.

I think this is the fault of Airport, but I'm not sure what about Airport is causing it ...

cocoajesus - did disabling it work for you?

Unfortunately that fixed it. I'm very much not pleased that the wireless on my macbook pro is affecting my ableton live performance. During a live show I'd turn it off anyway, but the 10.5.2 update seems to make it literally a impossibility to work with ...

I'll try it later this afternoon. I know there were updates to Airport in 10.5.2, maybe that's what is doing it.

I'll be a little pissed if that's what it is, but sometimes these things happen. If that's what's up, I'll probably restore my computer to pre-10.5.2

Thanks guys

I'm just not sure why that would change now - the current buffer is 512 samples (About 19ms) because my Firebox isn't plugged in. But this problem has just shown up and I've used (AFAIK) the same configuration up till now

I can't quite figure out why, but for some reason when I run ableton as of late, I'm getting a bunch of little glitches (That sound like clipping, but I don't think that's it). It doesn't happen every second, and it happens more frequently (though not exclusively) when I'm playing more than one ...

Hey guys, I posted this on the abletonlivedj website but the server seems to be down, so I figured I'd ask over here - does anyone have any artist recommendations for something similar to Samantha James?

I don't even know what genre she really is - does 120bpm count as downtempo? Chill House? All I ...

I currently have a macbook pro and Live 6 (along with an Oxygen 8 controller). I'm looking to start doing some real DJing which requires an interface, so I'm looking for suggestions.

We're not talking serious club work right now and I'm a college student, but I want something that will be able to ...
