I'm painfully aware of the 10 seconds on silence that occurs when Live shuts the current set, and loads the new set.

I was wondering if I could play in a "filler" sound file using quicktime or windows media player to cover the silence while the new set loads, but Ableton seems to grab the audio outputs and refuse to share with any other apps.

any suggestions??

thanks
