Hi, I've been using Ableton Live forever. I upgraded from Live 7 to Live 8 in september. I've had many gigs (Dj sets) and no problems. Since January 2011 i started to get problems during my live set with syncing. Loops that i 've used forever are now not in sync. It seems that the mastertempo (the click) changes on its own. My loops continue to be in sync but any loop i try to play on top starts 1/4 or 1/8 note later. And you never know when it's gonna happen. I've tried playing the same loops for 5 - 10 minutes and there's nothing logical as to when it happens. the loops might be in time for 5 minutes, the next time they are in time for 1 minutes, then the click changes. It's driving my insane.
Does anyone else have this problem - or better does anyone know a simple solution to my problem? I don't remember changing anything in the settings and i haven't bought any new equipement or programs. The problem just appeared during a gig.

What is your global quantization set to?

Re: Sync Problems with Live 8
global quantization is set to 1/4. I've just tried playing a loop that's perfectly warped. It's on time with the click for quite a while (4-5 mins) then all off a sudden the click goes into the 2nd (1/4 later). So any loop i try to add just starts 1/4 later and there's nothing i can do. No external equipement attached.
It's so weird and frustrating.

Re: Sync Problems with Live 8
In Clip properties, under the Loop. there is a Start and Length. What is the Length set to??
Also, does this happen on a fresh set, or is it on a specific set that you have saved? If you look in Arrangement View, are there any odd automations or anything?

Re: Sync Problems with Live 8
I'd like to bump this as I'm experiencing the same issues on a project. Did this ever get sorted?
