Is there no fix for this problem. I just bought this program and it's pretty damn frustrating to the point where i dont even want to work on it anymore. Crackles and skips everywhere. I see that Im not the only one with this problem. Does anyone know any fixes for this. I guess theyre not planning on fixing it.

what rig are you running- i am getting pops in clips when recording live audio on the fly into live- after 3-4 clips running next recorded clip picks up snaps/glitches etc- sometimes a completely distorted note in the clip- suspect the m-audio firewieiire audiophile- or not a fast enough hard drive??? Sometimes strange stuff with midi notes as well going to experiment with presonus firepod this wkknd- i am running 1.07 ghz i book g4 1.25 ram

I only noticed this recently myself.It seems to happen to me when I am using up around 40% and upwards of my CPU (According to the meter).
I am gonna test this more and hopefully work out whats going on (Cause at lower CPU the audio is working pretty well for me right now).
Has anyone heard anything from ableton ?

I have had the same problem, the latency/buffersize and driver type in the Preferences/audio tab may need altering. Drivertype should be ASIO and you should try to decrease the latenncy. Basically in the hardware setup tab set the latency to a greater value then you previously had it. I initially had my latency at 2ms it's now 10ms
