Ableton Forum

1. I have Platinum Rewired into Ableton and Platinum is in Song Mode. When I double press the stop button in Live it goes to the begining of the song...Platinum stay at the current poisiton. It should go back to zero with Live. If I rewire Live into Platnium...all is fine.

2. When Platinum (in Pattern Mode) is rewired into Live...the start of Platnium is NOT the same everytime. It's off by a few milliseconds (always behind Live). It's in sync every 5-6 starts (pressing the play button)...but that's not kewl. In Song mode...the sync is fine...but sometimes when I change the position in Live, Platinum continues playing where it left off. I have to press the stop button in Live a few times, then wait 10 seconds or so, then I play from any position in Live & Platinum will play from the same position.

Seems to be some time lag with the position update or no update at all sometimes. Everything works with Live rewired into Platinum though. I see that a few other programs had issues when Live was the Master. Is there a fix for this coming soon?

Here's my thread over with Orion with more info.

Update :: If I press the stop button twice in Platinum & then put the play marker where ever I want in Live...press play, then stop, then play (in Live) ~ everything is in sync. WIERD!

An update :: When rewired into Live & I try to render, Live will render at the BPM I say to (136), but Platinum renders at 130 even though it says it's rendering at 136. One time, after I loaded Platinum, it even said 130, but I restarted & it said 136. Since I'm seeing other people having Rewire issues...I thought I'd mention mine again. Perhaps there is something common to them.

I first started using Orion when it was at version 1, I had high hopes for it but it has always remained really buggy. A while ago I downloaded the platinum demo to see how it rewired to Live, It didn't work at all. Now you say that you have a working version, but it doesn't work perfectly, why am I not surprised. It's not Ableton's fault.
Orion has the best potential to rewire VSTis to Live, it's just a shame that it's creators seem to like releasing versions WELL before they are even close to working properly.

I agree...I've already ordered Project5, but I need to render my last 2 tracks before I make the switch. If I can't get it to work, then I'll render the Platinum half to wav & add it to Live manually.

Thanks!
