. I'm very poor, and that's ok. I do everything I can to work with what I have.
My macbook is a couple years old now, and i've kept it in pretty good condition. It works fine for most things.
But in Ableton, there's a horrible delay. If i play a track in the arrangement or clip view, what's playing on my screen will be about a quarter to half second ahead of the audio out put.
For example: It'll say it's playing (2.00.2), but i'm actually hearing (2.00.00)
THIS MAKES IT SO HARD TO WORK.
Two common problems:
1) Writing Midi notes in the completely wrong places because of the visual / audio differences. This is easier to manage with adaptation.
2) Lining up audio clips correctly to a beat. SO HARD. Border line impossible, especially if i'm importing an accapella with no clear initial transient.
I'm not sure how or if this is fixable. This has nothing to do with my version of live. I've tried multiple different ones. And my latency isn't even higher than 5% on this particular track, so it's not that.
Any ideas?
Please ask any questions you need to clarify.
And I thank anyone who takes time out of their day to try and help in advance. Honestly, I really appreciate it.
