I thought i found my perferct looping setup, but then encountered audio drop-outs when doing usual tasks. (such as selecting tracks and devices). even when cpu-load is under 10%.
I searched a lot and now found the problem. it occurs, when I have more than 1 midi-remote-output active. Pretty strange in my opinion.
I read, that people had similar problems, but hadn't boiled it down to that reason yet. Don't know really what to do now.
Is this a topic that is worked on over at Ableton?
My setup:
Nocturn (with Automap Server: this is one Midi-Out)
Padkontrol (with farmpad: the other Midi_Out)
MacbookPro 2,5 Ghz, 4 GB ram,
Live 8.04
Bomes MT running
5 tracks with one Looper each
3 tracks with one instrument rack each
routings...
i know that's a lot of stuff.
just for the sake of it i changed the midi-output of my nocturn control surface to an IAC-bus and monitored 343 (sic) midicontrol changes being sent right in that moment i select another device. regarding this mass of data i can understand why i have dropouts. the question is how to avoid it?
anyone else having these problems?
thanks for your help,
nicken
