Im getting ready to perform a set of mine live soon, and I wanted to play out my compositions in arragement view so I can screw with them improv style.

The problem Im having is that during certain parts (usually when new tracks come into the song) there will be a half-second stutter/glitch with no audio, then right back to normal, no problem. I used the search function and unfortunatley this seems like a somewhat common issue, does this mean I should head back to live Live 5?

Specs:
HP Pavilion DV9000
2.0GHZ Intel Dual Core
2 Gigs of RAM
7200RPM HD
M-Audio Firewire Solo



Thanks!

adjust your buffer

whats your cpu hitting on average?

try loading some audio into ram being that you have a ton of it

I agree with the above post, it is almost certainly the buffer size, for play back I sometimes use 1024 if there is a lot of processing.
Presumably you know the practice of low buffer sizes for recording, high buffer sizes for play back?

..and make sure that you have "Always On" selected as your energy profile.
