i too was trying to decide between the firebox and the fa-66. i got the firebox because it had two i/4 inch line inputs (3 & 4) on the back as well as its two pre-amps (1 & 2), whereas the edirol only had rca inputs on the back in addition to its pre-amps. i'm pretty happy with the firebox e...

i'm just in the middle of reading 'the web of life' now. Turning point was good. If only we could get college economics profs to read it... The tao of physics was a huge turning point for myself personally, everything just made so much more sense after reading it. In the two years i've been on logic...

well i can't say i own soundtrack, however i do own logic pro, and since soundtrack pro comes with all of logic's effect plug-ins, i can tell you that those are quite good, especially space designer. (for 300 bucks you get a reverb that was over 500 when it came out -only usable in the program of co...

Ya, it's a nice little box. i've got a couple little issues with it though. No fader metering with the mixer is one. The other thing, is that whenever i turn my powerbook on, the system output level doesn't register properly until you open the firebox mixer. Also the firebox's mixer settings also do...

thanks for the clarification. I see you're running OS 10.4.2. Do you find that helps at all with live 5's performance? I'm still on 10.3.9?

And btw, do you successfully use rewire?

cheers,
Rob

hey thanks for the answer. i posted my buffer sizes in my other (longer post). I guess you didn't see that, but i've got them set at 512. Plug-in set to 'as audio'. This should be enough no? And keep in mind this is without actually using any audio loops, only plug-ins, where the whole thing gets us...

Is 75% the normal maximum usable cpu amount in live 5?

I posted a couple issues here http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=28167 , but didn't get replies, so i thought i'd shorten it. On my powerbook, everything gets way too choppy, crackly and slow after about 75% cpu. To Mac users: IS THIS NORMAL? I would think i could use it up to 100%, but wi...

New Live 5 user here, seeing strange behaviour...

Hey all, I've recently fell in love with Ableton live after reading up on it and trying the demo. I just bought it, and i gotta say, this interface is killer, and if possible i may eventually completely convert from logic. Before that happens though, a couple issues... Let me first say i'm on a 1.67...
