Unacceptably slow freezing time on a very fast PC

[bigbing]

So whenever I try to freeze a track it takes a long time, way longer than any other DAW I use. Doesn't matter if it's the start of the project with 1 track and a stock synth (or a high CPU, performance draining synth) or the middle of the project with a lot of tracks/FX processing.

My PC specs:

- CPU: Intel Core i9-12900KF
- RAM: 32GB DDR5
- GPU: RTX 3070ti
- Storage: Multiple Samsung EVO 970 SSDs (Ableton is installed on the SSD, so are the plugins)

Here's a short video depicting the issue. I think this is unacceptable. REAPER renders complex PhasePlant patches with a lot of additional FX processing in 1 second or less (and that's with a bunch of other CPU heavy tracks in the project), so compared to Ableton this is just laughable.

Anyone else also encountered this? Is there any fix for it?

bump? I can't believe that it's a normal behaviour, it must be a bug, right?

Same problem here...

One clip in a track with one VST take 10 minutes ton freeze.

Anyone have an idea ?

Hey Buddy,

I found a part of the solution here : https://www.reddit.com/r/edmproduction/ ... n_ableton/

Must be a bug in one of the more recent updates? It definitely never use to be like this.
A track that would typically take less than 5 seconds to freeze took over a half hour to freeze. (Only know because I just left it open out of curiosity so I knew if it had just completely frozen or was actually still processing.)

works fine for me. so cant be a bug.

It can be a bug, even if you dont have it. lol

Yeah its a tad slower in processing audio with 12. Hopefully it gets addressed in the next release, or beta.
