listed my interface as M-Audio pci/24/96, latest drivers (of course). i also use a TASCAM us-122 usb mainly as a headphone interface.ok, but, btw, i just read all six pages of your other thread, and notice no reference to audio interface... sooooo maybe you should pay more attention to what's being said before jumping down *my* throat?
i have tried using them one at a time with my machine (uinstalled the other one) and it doesnt make a difference, so its not the fact that i have two interfaces on my system, considered that. even if it were, its still a problem that would need to be addressed, espeically if im only trying to use them one at a time, and not with something like ASIo4all no?
using either either one the lag issue makes it impossible to use the arrange grid for arranging anything of significance.
problem has been going on for over two years now. i had to post a poll and practically beg to be taken seriously. 75% of the people that answered it said they were not happy with arrange grid performance.
many of the people in that thread have the exact same thing ive been experiencing, and none of them can figure out any real significant way to make it better
ALSO: others have come in to the thread, with more powerful setups than mine, using no VSTs, and they cant work in arrange grid either. so it throws serious doubt
mike, please let this sink in:
Arrange View is half the product. if its effectively useless in doing what it was designed to do at low to mid level loads, half the product is useless for that. maybe other things, but not for full arranging
the people that dont use it in a way that this happens to them, do not get that, do not understand how much time and effort has already been spent on trying to make it better, and totally dont get why we're pressuring ableton to come up with some answers.
so if nobody else is going to do it, i am
not using any VSTis or 3rd party plugins makes it better, especially the ones that take up a lot of memory.Also, on page six, you do mention that not using vsti's or 3rd party pluggins does seem to help your issue. you no longer believe that to be true?
but it doesnt solve the core issue, because the arrange grid has been lagged and slow to respond since version 2 when i started using it. and there were no 3rd party plugs
and - not using any 3rd party plugs or severely limiting the way i use the program is not a "solution". thats not the way i need to use it and its not the way they promote the use of it.
i dont know how i can give any more substance than i already have short of flying out to berlin with my entire setup - using it the way i use it - and having them troubleshoot it on the premises. literally manabout this thread, you're right, it's not about anybody's specific problem. That's the problem. Specific problems can be addressed. General complaining with little substance can not.
the thread started out with a guy freaking out, for what in some of our minds is very good reason .. if you actually read what he said and understood where he was coming from.
its turned into a thread about why some of these things have been going on with no sign of a resolution and to show them that the problems are as serious as we say they are
like i said to the other guy ... people like you come in and its our job to be persistant and show where you are not necessarily the norm they should be judging the stability of the program by.
unless you come up with some real answers. which (sorry to say, wish it were otherwise) none of you have been able to do either, other than "yank out your hardware, and randomely thow more money at it")

So I dont freeze early. I record much filter and things from vst plug all over my song in different places so I having to freeze and not freeze to many time which is sloooooow. when the arrangement time come with no track freezed it is nightmare mission. slow screen dragging clips- pops and clickings -and crashing. It is not good for me to the freezing fo all my vst because I always have to freeze and not freeze and freeze again so many times. IT TAKE TO LOoooooooOOONG and is not the flexible use of vst midi. 
? Those systems have predifined guaranteed performance , you get what's on the box.
