Live froze up in the mix. Weeeeaaaaak!

Post by D DAS » Sat Oct 29, 2005 7:51 am

I was working on a track when all of a sudden my mouse was unable to contol anything. I could not drag and drop anything. If I placed my mouse on a clip to drag it it was acting like I cntrl+clicked it, a navigation menu would come up. Has this happened to any of you before? Is this buggy or was my computer just having a mind fart. My midi controllers still worked. I was just recording at home, but yikes if this were to happen at a gig. I had to quit live and restart. What's up with this?

I had a weird mouse glitch the other day too, not quite the same as yours but similar. not sure if it's live related or computer related... though I'm suspecting it's live
It was as if someone shook up a 6 foot can of blood soda and suddenly popped the top.

as i posted in another thread:

mouse scrollwheel quits working in session and arrange randomly.

only 5.02, not in 5.01 or any 4 vs - no other apps than Live.
