Battery 4 and Massive malfunctioning in Live 11

Post by ricecrispies » Sun May 02, 2021 2:35 pm

I have created a project in Live 11 which includes one track with NI Battery 4 and another with NI Massive 1.5.5. Both are malfunctioning.

Battery works for a while and then suddenly goes extremely quiet, so quiet that it only registers -53dB on the track meter. It is barely audible. The only thing I found that got it working again was to delete Battery from the track and then reinsert it, but this turns out only to be a temporary fix because after a very short while it does the same thing again.

And then there is also a problem with Massive. While trying to fix the problem with Battery, I closed Live and then restarted it. And then I found that Massive was now playing the wrong patch.

Has anyone any idea what might be going wrong and how to work round it?

Tried updating your Battery/Massive versions? Your massive appears to be several versions old. If they are "non legit" copies then this would probably be the cause.

I’m having the same problem.

Also pairing a drum rack with any plugin (to use with Push 2)
Will crash the set.

Live 11 definitely needs to step it up.

HOLD ON!!!

Had the exact same problem.

If you have a volume/expression pedal on any of your controllers. Make sure it’s all the way toe down.
