Greetings all...


I recently purchased live 9 suite and am having issues adjusting virtually everything with the mouse. When trying to adjust volume it instantly jumps to max and sticks. With panning it instantly sticks to the extreme right. The only way to manually adjust them is with the up or down arrows. Its also caused issues while trying to adjust a note length or draw in velocity adjustments as it sticks to a particular spot and wont budge, unlike the volume/panning this cant be done with the arrow keys.

Tried different mice, updated drives and its driving me insane...

Help...
Please....

Funny you mention this. I had this problem a while ago on 9 and it went away. I upgrade OSX today and it came back. I closed out Live, restarted, and it seems to have gone away now. Very odd.

I'm having this issue as well. Windows 8.1, Live 9.1
At first I thought it was my laptop trackpad, but it behaves this way with a mouse as well. Knobs and faders! Very frustrating. So frustrating I've even re-installed Ableton, but still have this issue.

Use the 'absolutemousemode' options.txt.

Do a search for it. There is an Ableton page dedicated to it.
