Live's process still running after closing?
Live's process still running after closing?
I just reinstalled Live (the newest version) and its processes or whatever are not stopping after I close Live, I have to stop it from Task Manager. This has never happened before, any ideas why?

Quite curious, it worked the first time I re-started, but ever since it continues to hang. No matter what, and I've tried a million things...
Exactly what I thought, the ASIO driver maybe, but I guess not because it's hanging even if my audio device (which is USB 2.0) is not on. I've used Live off and on for years with this soundcard and it's never hung like this. Also, Reaper is having no trouble with it.Mr-Bit wrote:Usb device not letting go?
I'm stumped and annoyed. Just when I'm ready to return to Ableton...

Hi there!
Actually I have quite the same problem. As I can see fromm your sig that you are also using the Korg PadKontrol could it be that you are also using the native Kontol live software??? I do and I think this problem (and some others) started when I installed it. Though I nevergot around trying to really find out becuase I don't find the time nowadays to work much with live at home.

I use Trigger Finger and don't have that problem at all. Weird.
I did have the same issue as jamester... but in my case using Adobe Audition. The process kept going, eating computer resources.
The solution in that case was to clean out my Windows registry, which cured the problem permanently. That was on my previous PC and I've not had this issue on my current one, but I remember the registry cleaner I used cost about $20 and was recommended by Martin Walker in his Sound on Sound column.

NP - the one I used was Iomatic's Registry Medic. You can read the Martin Walker SOS review here:

I'm guessing that the programme will have changed considerably since that time (I don't have it on my new computer as everything has run smoothly without the need). However, I did find that it really tuned things up - Windows loaded way faster etc. It was like having a new computer at the time.
If my current laptop slows significantly I would certainly buy this again (or check out any recommended alternatives that may now be better).

Thanks Alex...I just tried opening and closing Live with neither my Edirol or my PK on, and it shut down no problem. Perhaps it is the PK, I hadn't thought of that. Curious though, as I've had this exact setup for a couple years now with no problems...but I have had the computer change, so perhaps something's gone amiss.seltsam wrote:Hi there!

Thanks for the suggestion; I use Tune-Up Utilities which has a Registry cleaner/defragger, so I will try this and see what happens.headquest wrote: I did have the same issue as jamester... but in my case using Adobe Audition. The process kept going, eating computer resources.

Will report back later!

Update 1: Tried opening/closing with only the Edirol on, no PK - no hanging!
Update 2: Tried the same, this time with only PK and no Edirol - HANGING!
So it is the PK...
I will try the registry cleanup, maybe also reinstalling the PK's drivers...will keep reporting back. Thanks again everybody!

Follow-up:
I got it sorted!
All I did was go into the Preferences and noticed that more ports for the PK were selected than what I needed (I only need the standard Port A). So I deselected the others, and now it no longer hangs!
