Abelton Live 11.3.42 Lag problem

Post by dagwaremedia » Thu Aug 21, 2025 6:23 pm

I noticed this morning that when I open a plug in like Korg or native Instruments and I use my midi keyboard or displayed keyboard in the plug in I get a drop out or playing notes Let me be clearer if I play one note (16ths ) after about 5 or 6 times the notes stop and I see the wristwatch icon come on , then I stop playing and it does the same thing.

Things I did:

checked the CPU in activity monitor , all very low no heavy loads.

Of course rebooted and restarted Abelton same issue.

However I also downloaded a new plug in and it asked me to place previous folders from the older plug in in the same place which I did. I believe this may have caused it.

I opened Time Machine and reloaded Abelton fromyesterday and I see the same thing but I also see the plug in I added this morning there so that means I missed some files I needed to go back to that had to do with Ableton I believe?

If so what folder do I go back to in Time machine that will NOT have the new plug in I downloaded this morning????

The lag seems to have corrected except now when I go into any track and either change a parameter or cut a piece of audio the track stops following, ( it still plays audio ( but I see eitherwatch or beach ball for a few seconds then the change I assign happens.

Latency??????

almost there any help?
