Live 11 High Cpu

[askthe kid]

Hey guys,
Im getting cpu spikes eveytime I load 1 project after another. If I quit Ableton after the second project (already glitching cpu spikes with audio glitches) the project opens fine.. Im getting this problem quite a long time ago.

Monterey 12.7.2
MacBook Pro 16 M1 PRO 32GB
Latest Ableton Update

Are you using any third party plug ins? Are they all up to date?

[askthe kid]

I have many 3rd party plugins. they are usually all up to date. should I try to isolate the plugins? how should I do that?

[askthe kid]

even if I remove all the plugins the cpu meter still jumps. if I close and open live its all ok with all plugins on

What's the buffer size you're using?

[askthe kid]

The buffer size doesn't matter in this case. The cpu still acts abnormally if change it to higher or lower than 256

Not sure if it will make the CPU spike but… You have an M1. Any chance you’re still running Live in Rosetta?
‘Get Info’ on the Ableton shortcut to see/modify

You could try unplugging any controllers you have too, just in case there’s some underlying driver issue

[askthe kid]

Im not running in Rosetta neither atm im using any controllers. Also it glitches with and without an audio interface

[askthe kid]

it also happens if I choose to open a new project after being already in one. Cpu normally stays at 14% if I load my default template but opening with this sequence it glitches from 14 to 40-60 until I quit and open Ableton again.

Sounds like you might want to contact support and see if they have any ideas then:
