recording crash

hi,
I hope someone can help me!
When recordng audio on live, the computer crashes as soon as I press the stop button. This is really very annoying. I run it on Mac OS9.2.2, and have about 50 gigs HD space left. I just got the program and am waiting for support response...

has anyone experienced this and hopefully reolved it?

Hello,

Unfortunately i can not reproduce any render or record related crashes with OS 9 on my machine.
I suggest to proceed like this:
- Boot your Mac with the standard OS 9 extension settings
- Trash the Live "Preferences.cfg" file (/systemfolder/preferences/ableton)
- Record with the soundmanager.

Of course make sure that your harddrive has enough free space.
If this works, try to use your ASIO interface as input device.
If this works, start to use your old extensions setup.

Depending on which point you fail, it will help to track down the problem.

Best regards,

i just posted a topic about this happening with supatrigga as a plug in. have never seen it happen otherwise, could it possibly be related to a vst in your folder?
