Ableton Forum

this could be part of the problem i suppose. I was given the
right to do a remix of Cheb I Sabbah's newest album & he sent
me some samples at 96khz rate. I brought them into Live 5
& started using them before i realized they were at 96khz.

now, when you look at my Live 5 Crash log.....i get a dozen ...

Well....

I have run Disk Warrior & am told that i need to reformat my
harddrive & reinstall everything. My LIVE 5 & other apps seem to
