Ableton Forum

Also have had erratic CPU behaviour with Live 10 (but not Live 9 32bit). Lenovo thinkpad, Win 7, nvidia GPU, i7 2.4ghz, SSD, 16 GB ram I disabled CPU throttling in the BIOS (which ups the CPU temps dramatically, take note) and set Max performance in the Nvidia 3d settings. This gave me a clean slate...

Not to hijack the thread, but here's my experience as a Windoze user with CPU in Live 10. I'm on Win7, i7 Quad core @2.4ghz, 16gb RAM with a NVIDIA GPU. It's a 2012 Lenovo thinkpad - yeah, getting old. All versions of Live 10 have randomly given me CPU spikes when using my regular Live set (no clips...

Echoing other comments. I have used Live for film (music, editing audio and sound design). But I know from my experiences that it definitely is not perfect and, sad to say because I do like the toolset in Live, I won't risk using it for my next movie project - especially if i have to import EDLs or ...

If you want to sync inside Ableton, you'll have to do it manually. I do it this way, others might have a different or better way of doing it: Look for significant waveform events in both audio files. Line them up roughly. Zoom right in. Create a locator point to have a vertical line and move that li...

I also get the places wheel spin when the application launches. This is the Ableton Index(ing) app, which does stop after a while, but maybe starts up from time to time for a refresh. Only a potential problem if your CPU is getting taxed with a live set and you need to conserve it. At least that how...

Bump.

Had to use video for the first time in a while. Windows 7 (for my sins). Arrgh! NO DICE

So my workaround: downloaded a trial version of Reaper and tried Rewire to Live 10.1.
Ran the video (MP4) into reaper. Hey presto!
WTF Reaper is only 20mb.
IS this a mad idea?

I reinstalled 10.1 and it's working now............I uninstalled recently after getting some blue screens. Maybe there was some glitch in the install/uninstall to do with Max.

Thanks for your comments.

Yes, it's been a while since I last used it, which could even have been Live 9. The mapping function is completely unresponsive. Odd.

Can't seem to map anything to the M4L LFO or Envelope Follower/shaper etc.

Any ideas? Clicking or moving a parameter after clicking on Mapping button (which flashes) does nothing.

10.0.6 and 10.1

Win7

Yeah well I got three BSOD screens from 10.1 yesterday so I went back to 10.0.6 because I had a gig (luckily didn't overwrite the installation) and no probs with 10.0.6. I did delete the midi remote scripts as usual because I don't like Live taking over my midi controllers and when I looked at the c...

I used an FCB1010 for years with live and never had any firmware problems or problems with it running live. There are some editing apps that make programming it a breeze. It's one of the least expensive foot controllers - it used to be very popular. Search for midi foot controls on this forum, there...

If you don't want to delete any of the plugins: on yr PC, just make a new folder for the VSTs you prefer to use and copy the plugin DLL files over to that folder and then make that the default plug ins folder in Live's prefs.

Video in Live 10 has been a massive pain in the a** for me: (Win 7 64 bit with Nvidia card). So much so, that I have sometimes been forced back to Live 9 32 bit just to be able to view a video in Live. Make sure you have Quicktime installed on your PC, because without it, you'll have hassles with vi...

Good tip on the Zoom settings. I do think that graphics do cause issues with Live (even before Live 10 I used to get issues). My Thinkpad has intel graphics for the laptop screen but external monitors are using an Nvidia card.....

will try the 100% display zoom. I usually have zoom at 120%

Thanks.
Using Win7 but those features are also there. All at 100%. Am trying Process Lasso again to keep an eye on things.
