Live 5 problem

Post by bewilderd » Sat Oct 31, 2009 5:18 pm

So i've been using my trusty Live 5 with my 12" Powerbook (OSX10.4.11, 1.5 GHz, 1.25 GB DDR SDRAM Power PC) for good while now, regularly gigging with it. Over the last few shows though I've been having serious problems.

The audio keeps cutting out for 5 or so seconds at a time, this happens both audibly and visually, as the level meters on all the channels playing drop / disappear.
Live's CPU level is still pretty low while this happens.

Also I've occasionally had issues with small amounts of screen freeze when using reverb on a send/bus, i've been able to live with this so far - but this issue is really destroying my sets.
The audio cutting out seems to be happening regardless of weather i'm using an audio interface or not.

Other than buying a new laptop & copy of Ableton, or re-formatting what i have and re-installling is their anything that could be causing an issue?

Hello,

Do you use the latest Live 5.22 update?
If not, download/install it, if yes, send me your Log.txt file from
/User/Library/Preferences/Ableton

Best,
Christian
