Small cut when restarting after a long pause

Post by matheo » Wed Oct 27, 2004 7:19 am

Hi,

When I let my computer ON with Live 3 opened, but stopped, let's say for 10 minutes, then when I start to play again, everything is OK for the first 5 seconds and then, there is an audio glitch for half a second... then everything is OK for the rest of the gig...

I found a solution (I push the play button without clip, 10 seconds before to start playing so that the glitch happens when there is no sound), but it is not very "beautifull"...

:?

Any suggestion?

Hello Matheo,

This behaviour is known and more or less a OS problem. It has to do with
dynamic memory allocation (i assume you´re on OS X??).
I recommend to tweak some knobs before your concert starts....
We´ll check if there´s a better way to avoid this, though.


Best,
Ch. Kleine

Thanks for your quick answer (as usual!).

I use Xp Pro.

Anyway, if you confirm me that it is a known issue, it means that the problem does not come from my computer and so, as the workaround is not too difficult to do, I will be able to sleep well again... :)
