Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
Has anyone experienced a stutter, pop/crackle in the audio when you load new track? Almost every time i add a track i get this problem. I'm running it on an iMac as well as a macbook. It happens on both. I've messed about with the buffer size with no luck.
Hope someone can shed some light on this.
Thanks in advance

Re: Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
i even got audio stutter when i change between tracks! so, complete useless for live usage!?! when i unplug push all runs fine.
this happens with my internal mac book audio card. i 'll check if this also happens while using an external firewire interface.

Re: Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
This has happened to me but it hasn't been consistent. Really worried me when it happened though. Even during working at home it's a pretty bad thing to have come up. Come on Abes! This baby needs to be tight as drum!

Re: Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
Now I'm getting distortion triggering clips in session view. I have 5 tracks going. WTF When I trigger a scene with only a 4/4 kick after a scene with five clips in it there is crackle when the new scene begins. I recorded it to arrangement and the crackle is not present. Wow. Why even have a session mode?!?! Bugs like this certainly don't lend to my creativity. They completely smash it.
Edit: Triggering new scenes isn't giving me the crackle now. Switched sample rate from 4800 to 4400 back to 4800 and it went away... Grrr....

Re: Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
Thanks guys, ye this is really disappointing, i was hoping to go 'live' with this baby and this is a massive drawback. I'm also using macs that are a few years old (2009 iMac & 2011 macbook) However i doubt that this is the problem as they run fine without push. Don't wanna go blast another grand on a new iMac to find out either.
I received an email from ableton support and they only mentioned buffer size and directed me to a link on how to set up an audio interface
Come on ableton! We know thats not the problem here! Gotta be a fix for this, it's makes the whole thing unusable for live setups and performances.

Re: Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
I'm getting this problem on a 2012 Macbook Pro 2.9ghz 8 gigs RAM running Mountain Lion. Pretty effing disappointed. Sent them a stern complaint, waiting to hear back...
This has to be fixable, I hope they are already working on it. I can't recommend this "instrument" at this time.

Re: Audio Stutter when adding new tracks
I’m still getting this problem on my Push 2. I have the newest 2018 Macbook pro with 16 gigs of RAM.
This is so annoying, especially since it’s a product made by Ableton and designed to be used with Ableton in a Live setting. My novation controllers aren’t giving me these problems. It makes the Push 2 completely useless for live performance.
I’ve emailed Ableton support about this, will keep you posted on their answer.

It's happening because you have "reduced latency when monitoring" active...
