I'm having a similar problem with certain plugins.

Sometimes a MIDI note on the 1st beat of a pattern fires up late but the rest of it plays in time.

It's as if the VST gets the message to "start playing" late.

It's most noticeable on the Novation V-Station with the arpeggiator on, as this waits ...

Thanks laird

I reckon I'm gonna get a Novation X-Station - my brother has one and it'd be useful to have similar kit as we collaborate a lot and he uses the Novation's synth sounds on a fair few tracks.

Ableton runs significantly better on his much lower-spec laptop than on mine, so I figured the ...

Simple question (hopefully!)

After years of struggling with an old version of Fruity Loops on a crappy PC, I recently got a new laptop which I figured would be powerful enough to run Live 6.

Turns out it doesn't run very well at all. During playback, the interface runs at about 3 frames per second. 8O

Vista sound woes!

Just got my new laptop, running Vista*...

First problem was no input (line-in / mic in) being detected by Live on the built-in sound card. Installed ASIO4ALL, seemed to fix it...

Then I tried recording via the line-in, and got some weird feedback/delay as if the output was being re-routed back in ...

Sorted - just saved the .als to the Desktop and it created a new Project for me (as per the example in the manual - doh! :oops: )... then followed the instructions my previous post! :D

EDIT: Make sure you collect all the samples into the new project before packing (File > Collect and Save)

Happy ...

I have a similar problem, but may have the solution for you...

In the Live manual, p68: 5.1.2 Packing Projects into Live Packs

File > Manage Files...

Click the "Manage Project" button

Expand "Packing" by clicking the triangular-shaped fold next to it

Click "Create Live Pack" and choose ...

Audio + MIDI on "same" track?

** n00b alert **

I've been experimenting with using GSnap pitch correction VST (availble free here) on some recorded vocals.

I can get it to work in AUTO mode, simply by dropping it onto an audio track as an effect - it then automatically corrects the pitch of the audio on the track.

I'd like to ...
