M1 disk overload and dropouts when moving loop brace

Post by zeropoint » Thu Apr 22, 2021 4:42 pm

I know Live does not officially support the M1 yet...

Just wondering if others on the M1 are experiencing this issue. I used to be able to change the size of the loop brace (within the file, not the main arrange brace) while the track was looping without glitching. Same thing with setting a loop and jumping around the file, either with the brace mapped to a controller or using the up/down arrows. Now it causes instant disk overload and dropouts.

Anyone else ?

Thanks

Yep.

That being said, maybe your were using a different file format (maybe .mp3 rather than wav/aiff) when you experienced this dropouts. Can you check this?

Thanks for the reply.

Nope. They're all wavs.....and happens even if the file is loaded into RAM.
