Hi guys. I'm trying to run Ableton 5 on my macbook, but when I play audio the CPU usage for it is crazy, and I can't play two tracks at once without the tracks cutting out. I've followed instructions on latency and buffering, but it doesn't matter what I set the buffer to, it continues to skip around.
is this particular macbook not compatible with Ableton??
ps. it's driving me to the point of tears, so please respond if you have any ideas to help me.
80gig/1gig ram macbook and ableton 5
Hello,
On a Macbook, you need to run at least version 5.2. Prior versions are not Universal Binary and run emulated with Rosetta, which gives very poor performances. Reading you description, I think it is what's happening to you.
Please visit the Shop/upgrade page of our website to get a Universal Binary version.
