gain staging issues would be equally evident on playback, and in both cases Live is very lenient.
I was thinking this earlier, and it's good to hear someone actually say the render should sound the same as play back. I've adjusted and rendered this at least 40 times using different render settings as well as adjusted track levels with no acceptable results. Not only that, the fluctuating volume levels in the rendered project is blowing my mind as well. Could it possibly be a faulted Live 10 download issue? I didn't have this problem in 9.
Nah corrupted executables simply dont run. Its not like biology where you get a mutation.
Not yet at least. I hear Ableton L11 is an RNA injection into the hypocampus.
I think you need a dude who knows about Live to call around to your house, or take your laptop and install over to someone. You have a very unusual issue here. Ive never experienced it in the 10 years Ive used Live.
Regarding "Not only that, the fluctuating volume levels in the rendered project is blowing my mind as well."
I'm having the exact same problem. I'm using Live 11 Suite, but I also had the problem in eg Live 10 Standard.
When I play my recording from the arrangement view in Ableton the song sound good.
When I play my exported wav and mp3 via Windows Player through my PC speakers (Logitec) the song sounds good as well.
However when I play the mp3 in my car via my high-end car speakers the song sounds crap: it's not clipping, but the volume of some tracks varies throughout the song. Going from ok loudness level, to more louder than the rest, to too quiete in comparison to the rest. Not continuously but in different parts of the song. Eg the rythm part sounds ok in comparison to the rest, then suddenly it sound louder, then suddenly too quiete.
Does anybody have an idea what could be the cause and why it sound good when played in Ableton via my monitors connected to my audio interface, and played directly on Windows via my PC speakers, but not when played via my car speakers ?
