Ableton Forum

Hi all -

I recently installed a friend's copy of Ableton 5 on my Black MacBook and it doesn't seem to be crazy about working with MIDI. It can handle umpteen channels of plain old audio just fine but when I try and play more than on MIDI track, even on their own, CPU usage starts getting up to 115%, even when I've just rebooted the machine.

I am using MAC OS X 10.4.9 and the Core Audio Driver - any advice?

Thanks,
TJ

Hi,

Do you run at least 5.2? Your version needs to be Universal Binary, and anything pre-5.2 is not.

I just updated and now it works a charm.

Thanks, amaury.
