Here’s what I think (famous last words) is going on. The original audio track wave form shows the audio as recorded - that is, before any processing done to that audio by plugins on the track. When the track is rendered/frozen the wave form shown is for that track as it now is - i.e. after the plug...

Yes I made sure warping is not on (I always have auto-warp long samples unchecked) and I've made sure that they start at the right spot. After some more experimenting it seems like the rendered stems are slightly ahead when lining them up with the original stems. The waveforms are just slightly off ...

So I'm exporting my stems to be mixed by an engineer but on certain stems that have a lot of plugins on them, after their rendered if I bring them back into the project they are not in sync with the original stems. There is some latency on the rendered stems. I've tried turning the buffer down all t...

I guess one question has to be whether the 4K screen issue is unique to Live or happens in other applications/DAWs? I could barely run Live on my MBP (i7 quad core, Intel graphics) due to glitching and dropouts until I applied the options.txt frame rate reduction. But Logic Pro X runs without any p...

Update from my side: I'm using an eGPU now with monitor attached to the external unit. Problems gone completely. Which eGPU and graphics card did you go with? I've been experiencing similar issues as others in this thread and it's been driving me crazy. I'm using a maxed out 2018 Macbook Pro 15&quo...

Yes it matters. You need your master WAY down if you want to have it mastered. -6db headroom I believe is what you should allow yourself. Clipping on the master is prob the number 1 thing to avoid Ask the mastering house/engineer what peak levels they would like to see on the master and set it acco...

Does it matter if the master is clipping if I'm exporting stems? Will it affect the stems? I'm preparing to send my stems off for mixing & mastering does it matter if the master is in the red inside the project? The individual stems are not clipping but because of the amount of them playing at t...

So I'm preparing some songs to send them off for a final mixing and mastering. Nothing is being recorded anymore just audio files at this point. My current projects are about 10 stems, the vocals have quite a bit of plugins on them but nothing too CPU heavy. This is causing my CPU to go thru the roo...

I seen a couple youtube tutorials where they use reverbs & delays on an Effects Rack in a Parallel chain which I never thought about doing before. This makes me wonder what is the difference of using parallel reverb FX Chains directly on the channel vs sending that channel to a return channel wi...

I think that’s the idea yes. Interesting concept but be aware that the sum of the individual tracks with the fxs will not sound the same as the master track. Do you mean it won't sound the same as the return channel because it's printed on to the individual stems instead of the return channel as a ...

I have a question about this new setting in the beta. If I export a stem that is sending to a reverb return channel is the reverb effect printed onto the stem itself?

it is because the 2018 MBPs treat the built-in speakers and the headphone port as separate outputs (which they are). previously—as you know—they were mutually exclusive and plugging in headphones disabled the speakers. i prefer the new way but it does take some getting used to... I had a feeling th...

So now sure if this is a Live 10, a 2018 Macbook Pro issue, or a Mac OS Mojave issue. I know this never happened before though. If I'm working on my laptop I could be listening to music on my computer with my headphones plugged in and everything works fine but then I open up Ableton and start workin...

So lately as I'm working on a project when I go to undo/redo a change I made, nothing happens. Then I go up to Edit on the top and it says "undo time code frame rate" and then I have to keep hitting undo several times before it actually undoes the change I made. Same for redo. It's been ha...
