Here is a link to a video of a track on ableton that shows the video tracks and basic hd mixing and lighting sync from within live.Unfortunately, the rig is not stable enough to play live with.But the hope is, that it will be someday.

Yes Im on a (dell workstation) - laptop too. Ive no experience of protools as 15 years ago it was too expensive
and I went down a different route.. but as a general rule in software engineering, the less communication between the main host program and other 3rd party programs, the better. I talked ...

Yes the finger can probably be pointed at max for live here as the live8.3 system is rocksolid on Win7 64 with the dumbed down rendered audio tracks and clips and a bit of external midi and plugins (but without max for live).As I mentioned in the previous thread, it appears that there is actually ...

Hi Folks,

Hi Forum,
Ive just burned 3 days trying to learn basics of max for live programming syntax primarily for jitter capability,
to sync video with audio during live sets. A stripped down Live 8.2.8 set running on Windows 7 64bit with minimal outboard had been pretty stable for audio only. (see my other ...

clips vary in length from 1 s to 32S with average being 4 bars @ 120BPM or 8S. I dont have any clips using
the 'ram mode' option.

I got a helpful reply from support on the subject;

thanks for sending us your crash report and sorry to hear that Live causes problems for you.

We know well about Live's out of memory behavior. Live can use up to 4 GB of memory on 64 bit systems, but doesn't know how much of this memory is already ...

Good Question. I want to do this to help smooth transitions between session where all the improvisation is, back to arrangement where the structure is, and i dont want to find myself in the middle of the next song arrangement wise
when i swap back to arrangement from session. Mapping midi to ...

I am drawing the following conclusion from my 3 month burnin of Ableton live 8.2.1 on Win 7 64 bit ;

It is neither more or less stable on win7 74 bit than win xp.
It is not a suitable package for orchestration / use with large sample libraries such as:

New Rock track exclusively Ableton on win7/64 with EWQL Guitar, and NI's new scarbee rhythm guitarist through the Rammstein guitar rig bank.
All Feedback appreciated / pos / nex
