i have a powerbook g4 1.67 ghz w/ 1 gb ram
using live 5.03

i'm running 8 stereo tracks and peaking around 70- 80 % cpu load causing sluggishness, audio hiccups at loops, and overall unreliability.

any suggestions to lighten the load?

i'm thinking, maybe convert the stereo tracks to mono, how do i do this...

unless there are other suggestions.

thanks

i'm assumining audio tracks?
make sure warp mode is set "beats" and not "complex"

any help?


if you'r running 8 midi tracks that sounds about right..time to freeze or resample into audio.

oh,

i have the warp defaulted to "complex"
i'll try to switch it over to beats

thanks for the tip,i'll let you know how it goes

thanks!!!


cpu is all good....thanks for the tip....hit my forehead and said "d'uh" already...
just makes me wonder about those new macbooks now....
i think it was just wishful thnking about having it defaulted at complex...just sounds so true...

anyways....i'm doing an ableton live set on the radio this fri/ satmorning
kpfk los angeles 90.7fm or streaming worldwide
