Triggering one sample using ableton live through PA

In all seriousness, I've got it all working right. The only problem now is that Ableton is always a split-second late when I hit the enter key to play the clip. It's not the footpedal, because the enter key itself has the same delay.

How can I make Ableton play it more quickly?

Quantization to "none"?...

what about reading the manual at least once, i dont think you did that, if you dont want to do that, you at least could have tried the tutorials. things your trying to do are all explained there.

i dont wanna be rude, im just saying

still hope you keep it up and find a workable solution

cheers

how about:

-a woman screaming
-a buzzsaw
-"say hello to my little friend"
-gunshots

These are all perfect for breakdowns. Do you have more buttons on that thing? You can assign them to each clip.

LOL.

Pure Class!

And, to the OP - did you shell out all that money on Live 7 when you have no idea how to use it, just to play a 3 second audio clip? Wow.

i dont even think he bought it he might got it with another product or more likely ripped it (live7 with other products isnt very common these days). im sorry - lol - otherwise i just cant explain.

Reduce the size of the audio buffer...

you can find it on the audio tab of the preferences page
