hate to say it, but +2

on a side note, from 8.0.3 to 8.1.1 didn't crash that much to me.
It can crash for many reasons though. Most of the times its my own mistakes. like pushing the cpu, or ram, or overheating, etc. But the last 5 crashes tonight with 8.1.3, I swear its not my mistake! It happens just when moving clips around, or simple things like zooming.

Its not the VSTs. I use very few, and they are all tested, researched and true crash safe.
there's lots of tracks with audio files in this project, so I guess it crashes from ram or cpu spikes. About 30 audio tracks and 20 midi tracks. 4 cores with 40% cpu usage, 1.8gb ram use, 4gb available. XP

Don't know if it's because I have a Win 7 64 bit machine but Live 8.1.3 is crashing like crazy these days. Sad smiley. What triggered me just now was that Live crashed while I was saving a simple Sampler preset. huh?
At least my work was recovered.

Also it would be a lot nicer if I could send bug reports directly from live instead of having to bring up my email....

Current Beta Version: Live 8.1.4b1 wrote:Bugfixes

- Custom Min/Max values for MIDI- or key-mapped parameters on VST plug-ins would be lost after saving and reloading the Set.

- When using clip envelopes to modulate the parameters of third-party plug-ins, the modulation range would be broken after saving and reloading the Set. (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=141378&start=0)

- Some Sets which were saved in earlier versions of Live could not be opened in recent versions.

- In some cases, the dialog box that should show trial options when starting Live without an authorization would be empty instead.

- Various other stability improvements

Same here. Lots of crashes and I did sent my bug reports. I'm sure Live 8.1.3 crashes a lot more than 8.0.9 but I can't and wouldn't want to go back any more.
I'm going to try the new beta (and I hate to use a beta, but that's a personal thing I guess) and let you know if it's better.

I know the Ableton team is really trying to solve this, thanks in advance !



Cheers.

I played a 2h set saturday night. no crash, no problem.
Live was pushed to its "limits", with 132 audio tracks, 2.5Go of samples loaded, 178 scenes, effects and VSTs, and one m4l device.

8.1.3 is the more stable version at this time for me...

Soooo what's your point? We all know some users have a more stable setup, but that doesn't mean we caused the crashes ourselves by doing something wrong.
No offense, but If your happy with your version, good for you but you can't ignore users who purchased Live and still have lots of crashes.

FYI I don't have crashes when every device / FX / plugin / sample is allready loaded, ready and on it's place.
I do have many crashes when working and producing: inserting devices, moving tracks, editing stuff, ...
So when I'm able to load a premade live set that should work for me to.

ps @ dum: this is about 8.1.3 as you can read in the title of this thread :roll: ...

his point is, it depends on how you use the app, what additional tools, what hardware setup, what soundcard, etc. and what parts of the app you use.

and this is why some have live 8 without any crashes since first beta (like me), and some still have crashes right now. and that's why it's important to find out what the differences in those setups are, to find out what triggers the bugs. maybe some of your vsts need some bugfixes, too? maybe one of your soundcard/external devices drivers needs an update, too? maybe your mac needs a general update, as you're not on a stable release? etc etc.

in short, no you don't do anything wrong. still, something's wrong in your configuration that is not in others. lets hope they find all live-based faults and fix them (as well as all other parts that are involved do their part to fix it)
