Small lag when switching between Note and Session mode

Post by lebasti » Fri Apr 24, 2015 6:40 pm

Hey all!

I'm using Push for quiet a while now and one thing I stumble constantly on, is the lag when I switch between Note- and Session-mode. It's really noticeable and takes between 300-800ms in my estimation. I already tried connecting push directly to my macbook pro retina (2012) without a hub, but this didn't solve the problem. The lag is present, even when the project is literally empty.
Anyone else has the same problem?

Greetings

Sebastian

Switching between Live & Users modes is instant on my system.

I can count to 1. So about 1 second or maybe a little less. I've noticed when Live is busy it's slower.

@Stromkraft

Seems like we have a pretty similar setup (Macbook Pro, Babyface, Push), would be interesting if this could be a mac-only problem or something like that...

I think (at work so can't double-check) mine is instant, or if there is lag it must be so small if I don't even notice nor remember if I have it. Seems mostly lag-free whether I toggle between Note and Session or just hold down the buttons to briefly access one or the other.

Windows 7, live 32 bit, i7 920, 4gb ram, PodHD as audio interface.

EDIT: I do actually have very brief lag when switching modes, but nothing bothersome. Option 2 in the poll then.
