Doing my fucking head in

Post by jtdj » Fri Apr 15, 2011 4:19 pm

Keeps freezing everytime I shut down or switch between sets. Keeps freezing everytime I delete a midi track. Keeps freezing everytime I load an audio track into a channel. And is crashing atleast 4 times an hour! FUCKING GAAAAR!!!!!

Contact Ableton directly to troubleshoot the problem. Posting here is not going to help.

yeah mate, your problem seems pretty individualistic.. contact ableton they'll sort it out for you. the only time ableton's ever crashed on me was when i tried to open up 15 instances of live at the same time... that didn't go to well i think windows 7 crashed more so than ableton,

I find it crashes quite a lot on my PC with Windows 7, but have yet to have it crash on OSX - just lots of other annoying stupidity (also in windows version) like loosing track of PDC required and other subtle things that drive you mad - Grrr!

On windows however, seems the slightest thing can upset it and its usually dragging a plugin in or around that kills it - pretty much un-useable if you have a deadline. Cubase 6 however which always used to be flakey junk years ago (3sx/v4 era) is now running really well on Win7/64.

Got pissed off enough with it today to finally give up and scrap a project in Live and move the whole damn thing to Logic - what a pain, but at least the timing is consistently correct now.
Nothing to see here - move along!

Well, i'm so sorry BUT i have to say that latest Live version are a MESS for me ... :( I also get continuosly crashes and i'm really worried about it because i was just planning a series of performances ... IMHO the whole Version 8 was born with a lot of troubles and i hope that Live 9 willo be released as soon as possible ... I'm still in love with Ableton Sw BUT what is happening is very similar to real life, where i'm love with a woman that drives me crazy and makes me continuously suffer ... 8O :lol: !!!!!

pre-8.2.1 i used to have 2-3 minute hangups in arrange view when selecting the entire record for render.
that behavior would repeat itself once i would deselect the entire arrangement. with 8.2.1 that issue
got squared away and things got very stable on my end.
