I've just found that the whole GUI freezes really hard and CPU indicator turns red when I cutting the clip into the parts, or when I change the length of it (the clip is actually full length song, not a loop). I've tried different things but what looks like helped me is turning OFF the RAM toggle in the clip (which was ON for some reason). Macbook Pro M1 Pro here. :?

Yep, there's a known bug with audio files that are cut in many/a lot of little bits.
Even though it's filled, you could report to Support to push it up into the priority list :wink:

Here same. since Live V. 11.3.10.

Stuttering and freezing. Sound continues to play. After closing and restarting Live, the same after 1 to 3 minutes working.

Noticed it when when selecting a Preset from Baby Audio "Transit" VST. CPU is normal, no spikes. Another time I noticed it dragging a plugin from Arturia. So I cannot see yet any pattern or workflow causing this.
