Ableton Forum

As of 7.0.9 my rme multiface 1 and 9652 run fine on vista. From previous threads on this forum and the rme forum, I understand that there were conflicts between Ableton's and RME's handling of the MMCSS feature in Vista. Supposedly, Ableton now overrides RME's use of that feature and things seem to ...

I'm just glad the MMCSS problems are finally being fixed. The new beta seems to take care of them. Ableton, all is forgiven (except perhaps the indignant responses to valid input and feedback). And Timur, I hope your last comment about cancelling your account was a joke. Your posts on the MMCSS prob...

aleme, Not everyone is using Ableton just as a daw or a jukebox. The bands I work with are wanting to use it in live performance with multiple analog instruments and midi instruments playing through it in real time. For this we need lowest possible latencies, lots of plugins, lots of FX, lots of of ...

+ 1 and the "if you don't like our support, we'll give you your money back" response is both immature and unprofessional. It's the equivalent of "if you don't like it, I'll take my ball and go home." Users have already invested in the "game". Giving our money back isn't...

To Ableton Support, please consider this post a friendly and respectful "reminder or quick question about the status" on this issue. Thanks.

My Vista/RME/Ableton live performance is as follows using the test tone at 80% cpu:
MMCSS on, mulit-processor support on:1024 samples
MMCSS on, multi-processor support off:512 samples
MMCSS off, multi-processor support off:512 samples
MMCSS off, multi-processor support on:256 samples

timur, thanks for sorting all this out and staying on top of it. please keep it up.

Parametex, Try turning multiprocessor support off under the CPU tab in Preferences. It's a shame to have to do this on a quad machine, but it might get you down to a usable latency setting. Mine went from 1024 to 512 with that switch.

A good first step would be to get 32 bit Ableton Live running smoothly on Vista 64. At present, I can't turn on multiprocessor support under Vista 64 without degrading performance of Live by half -- double the CPU's, halve the performance. I have no desire to go back to XP because my 64 bit Sonar wo...

I have tried Live on 2 different computers running Vista 64. On both computers, I can run at a lower sample rate if I turn multiprocessor support off . I'm wondering if this is a Vista 64 problem only or does it occur with other OS versions? My configurations and testing results are as follows: Vist...

I finally got my #2 computer back together so I could test vista 64 with Live. The configuration is as follows: Vista64 Ultimate v-lite config to strip out aero & other ms crap Itox mini itx motherboard G5c100n Intel 945gme chipset w/on board video 1 pci slot (no pci express slots) containing RM...
