Same stutters and fan issues here as well under 9.04. In fact it actually seems to be worse for me. This truly, truly sucks..

Yep. Even with the official release of 9.0.4.

I have a question for you guys in the same situation. Which audio interface are you using? Is it USB or FireWire? I'm dealing with a RME | Fireface 400 (Firewire).

Are you having the same problem by using your built-in audio sound card?

Tested with FF400 (firewire), Digi Mbox (USB), Motu Microbook (USB) and internal card. Same issues on all.

Some improvements concerning Ableton Index in Monitor Activity, still peaking to 100% but recovers faster, no comparison with Live 8 though..

Hi All,

Since there are many factors that could play a role here, I am monitoring this thread for new input.

We released the 9.0.5b1, which contained a fix for the indexer - which is reported here as a source of overloads.
There was also 2 issues fixed for plugin handling that also could cause such overheads.

So if you are using plugins or saw the indexer was the culprit please have a look at the 9.0.5.

Best,
Mads

Didn't fix it.

I installed the new beta, loaded up my stuttery set (which didn't stutter approx. 3 months ago), and as soon as I hit play and let the first sounds play for like 30 seconds, I get the first dropouts.
Didn't even plug in any of my controllers or my FW soundcard...did it thru laptop output.

:(

Has anyone had any luck with this?
Got some new live bookings coming up and i dont know what to do!
I even tried splitting my bigger set into two, and i still get the audio dropouts.
And, i must emphasize, even the biggest set i have used to work OK some months ago, and nothing's been changed in my computer.
It HAS to be in the code or something!
