Re: Places wheel in browser keeps spinning
After much investigation, I have found the following: When I launch Live (10.1.9), sometimes I get an endless spinning circle; other times I don't. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason behind it. In all cases, launching Live starts the indexer running, and the indexer takes a while to run; s...

Re: Places wheel in browser keeps spinning
It’s hard to see how the number of samples could be relevant: 1) I have two computers with Live installed and as close to identical configurations as I can manage. Both are running Windows 10. The endless spinning wheel problem happens almost all the time on one of them and never on the other. 2) Wh...

Re: Places wheel in browser keeps spinning
I have been able to reproduce the problem on a machine with no user-supplied content at all, just Ableton packs. The problem never occurs on one of my machines and often occurs on the other with identical content. When the problem is occurring, the index process is consuming essentially no cpu. The ...

Re: 10.1 update
My experience is that "computing space requirements" often takes a surprisingly long time, but at least in my case it has never failed to complete.

Re: Places wheel in browser keeps spinning
That’s what I’ve been doing. When I launch Live, it starts an indexing process that takes about 20% of the cpu, according to WIndows Task Manager. Eventually the process quiescent, dropping to less than 1% of the cpu. On one of my machines, the sircle sometimes stops spinning when this happens, but ...

Re: Places wheel in browser keeps spinning
I've been having the same problem on Windows. After much investigation, I believe that the indexer is actually finishing its work, but for some reason it is not successfully telling the Live GUI to withdraw the spinning wheel.

Re: Store external samples in User Library or not?
What about kits and instruments that use those samples? What I find is that when I get a library from somewhere, I can't put it in a random folder in Places and also have it find its samples correctly. If I load a preset, for example, it typically won't find the corresponding samples. I can locate t...

Store external samples in User Library or not?
Supppose you get a library of samples from somewhere--you bought them, or made a bunch of field recordings, or whatever. Of course you put them all in a folder so you can get at them. Do you put that folder in your User Library? It seems to me that the answer isn't obvious. If you do put them in you...

Re: Question about Chords and Classical Music
FWIW I just learned about a free iOS app from Yamaha called Chord Tracker, which claims to be able to listen to audio and figure out the chord progression. No idea how well it works.

Re: Question about Chords and Classical Music
The harmonic structure of classical and pre-classical music can be breathtakingly complicated, and cannot always be broken down into a straightforward series of chords. This harmonic complexity is one of the major things I find missing in today's popular music--especially electronic dance music. Exa...

Re: Class compliant MIDI devices in Windows 10
A class compliant device is one that does not require a manufacturer's driver; so I'm not quite sure what problem you're trying to solve.

Re: Remove Audio drivers
One other possibility: Look in C:\Users\<you>\AppData\Roaming\Ableton\<Live release>\Preferences\User Remote Scripts
and see if there is a folder there with a name that matches your device. If so, remove that folder after uninstalling the drivers.
