Can't Switch on Multicore / Multiprocessor Support!

Post by TheProdigy » Thu Oct 12, 2006 7:59 am

I have an Intel 3.6GHz CPU which is multiprocessor. Cubase sees that and let's me turn mutliprocessor support on, but Ableton Live v6.0.1 doesn't. The option is greyed out 8O

Any ideas why?

Maybe you have a hyperthreading single-core processor like Pentium 4?
Live does not use hyperthreading since it may result in bad audio performance. For multicore support you need a 'real' dual core processor like Pentium D or Core Duo.
