Ableton Forum

Hi im looking for a controller that i can use with ableton that gives me that start button feel just like the mpc.
i been using ableton on a Dell ultra spiron. when ever my band play live and we have to stop and start back again. my drummer and i have some on time playback problems. when my drummer does his thing 1,2,3,4 then everyone comes in. ableton response a lil too late and throws everything off sync/time. idk if its a mac i need cause thats what everyone telling me i need. but for now i got to make this work. i want a controller with that same mpc start feel. or mpc response time Any suggestions please help.

That sounds like a latency problem. What are the specs on your computer? What sound card are you using? What drivers are you using?

I honestly think if you had a low latency sound card with ASIO drivers, you wouldn't have that problem.
