Navigating Sounds - Spinning Beach Ball (Live 9)

Anyone else have the spinning beach ball when navigating sounds?

I never have the spinning ball for anything, so it is a bit surprising.

Native Instruments vs. Live 9 ?

Comparing the sound libraries, which would you say is better?

Native Instruments (Kontakt 4) or the Live 9 Suite

Does either sound better or work better?

Random clicks

My computer is only at 10 to 20%, but I have random clicks. It's not all the time, but only at certain times. I'm using Ableton Live, but only 4 tracks (and no effects). Plus, I have a lot of buffer (e.g., 600 or up). Presonus 1818VSL Kontakt 4 MacBook Air 2011 version -- 4gb ram -- i5 processor -- ...

Best MIDI keyboard for triggering Ableton Live scenes

What's the best way to trigger Ableton scenes with a keyboard?

I really like the way the Launchpad works, but it'd be cool to have something like that in a keyboard. Anything like that exist?

Re: Mapping in Ableton?? (OSx Lion)

Just to update, in case anyone else has this issue... Everything seems to be working now. The remote was part of the issue, along with selecting Launchpad as "in" and "out." It wasn't enough for it to be the control surface. (I messed around with some other settings, too, but I t...

Mapping in Ableton?? (OSx Lion)

With OSx Lion, is it possible to MIDI map in Ableton? I had no problem with Windows, but in Lion, Ableton does not seem to allow me to do so. I plugged in a Novation Launchpad and a Korg nanoKontrol to test it out... It receives MIDI data (the light blinks), but when I try to map, nothing happens. F...

Re: Answer to Akai MPK49 midi compatability issue with APC40

could the problem be related to ableton not effectively working with the mpk49? i have an mpk49 and it is crazy hard to use. it will work, then suddenly stop working.

Basic NI Komplete question

How do I install the Komplete .dll files in my Live 8 plug-in devices? So this should be a basic task (I did it fine on my laptop), but this is unusually complicated on my desktop. I am using 64-bit Windows 7, so I copied both the 32 and 64 .dll to separate folders, then scanned, but nothing shows u...

Re: Muffled Treble

Sounds perfect on headphones. I replaced the cable and checked for a loose connection, but everything seems tight.

Muffled Treble

All of a sudden, there is muffled (or no) high end from my right active studio monitor. Is that definitely a blown tweeter? How do I know for sure? There isn't a buzzing sound or anything like that -- just all of a sudden, no high end. The left speaker is clear and distinct, but the right speaker is...

Re: Installation Stalls at vcredist_x86.exe

Cool. Do you know the link to that forum? I have searched and searched but must be missing it

Strangely, I can install other programs, so I am surprised I can't install Live.

Thanks again!

Re: Installation Stalls at vcredist_x86.exe

I can install on a laptop but not the desktop.

I have the same error with both the disc and the download.

Re: Installation Stalls at vcredist_x86.exe

Wow, I even re-installed Windows 7 (extreme, I know), but that didn't help. I uninstalled by just deleting the Ableton folder. I think I did it the official way before, though. Do you think letting it run all night (12+ hours) will really help? I've never heard of doing that before, but since it's s...
