popular opinion is that it's much better, from what i have read
Ableton Forum
dragging parts or copy in arrange still appallingly slow

If I am following this Topic correctly, then I am having this problem with 6.0.1. I reported it in the BETA program, but was essentially ignored.

Just wondering if this sluggishness many of you are experiencing is limited to the arrangement view. What about zooming in on a longer audio clip in the session view?
This thread: http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic. ... c&start=15
describes the zooming lag in the arrange, but I'm getting this in the session view. I don't have to do much either, just:
1. Start Live with default empty set
2. Drag MP3 or WAV (the ones I tried were about 45 mins long)
3. Click the cell, and start zooming in the clip view.
Before it gets anywhere near the zoom magnification good enough to adjust the 1, it starts chunking in 5-10 second lag times. Doesn't even have to be playing. Is this normal for samples this long?
I will try changing my usb mouse to PS2 (thanks for that tip).

I fixed it with a dualcore
Had a student that has a 3.6 GHz Pentium, gig of RAM, MOTU 828 ... Live 5
Same exact problem. As bad as mine was, we could not continue the project
We had him upgrade to 6, installed it, same project: FIXED
It was definitely Live 6 - no other cause - and he has no dualcore

Sure. In fact Pentium 4 is much, much worse than Athlon XP, Sempron and AMD 64. Intel put itself together again with Pentium M, Core Duo and Core 2 Duo, but anything before that was a complete disaster.longjohns wrote:just curious, people used to say to never use AMD/Via for audio. has this changed?
Pentium D and the latter pentium 4 were nicknamed "Pentium Blowtorch" for their heat output and appaling performance.
Anyway, right now the Intel Core line really rocks, there's nothing better. :)

ahh...i'm working on my liveset in arrange view, and the graphic performance is so bad that it's horrible to work with...
the cpu meter is always below 50% !!!!
i thought ableton fixed this issue???
live 6.01 xp, 1024mb ram, 1,8 centrino

i've been having trouble with sluggishness, but not related to copying/ etc.
it's saving, loading sets and instruments...
i've so far been writing it off as due to the huge size of the EIC stuff i'm using, but for instance if i've just saved a set and ten seconds later, without changing anything, i close that set or select 'new set' - it takes a very long time to actually do this.
it seems weird to me because i _just_ saved it, there should be nothing to do, really

ive noticed that when you limit the shit out of one or more tracks, live clicks and pops and reacts slooooww... happens with psp vintagewarmer but also with the ableton onboard compressor. happens in both live 5 & 6. i think live has a problem with boosting audio signals to a wall
does anyone else have experienced this?

try dragging some of your 'home made' presets into preset folder - is really slow whilst in playing too - no problem though if Live playback is stopped first.

I have to wait even with only two audio tracks with 2 compressors and a gate while zooming in and out. Didn't even try to cut anything on this 2-hour live performance recording. This sluggishness becomes very apparent if you work close to the end of the clip. Looks like a linear search instead of a more efficient algorithmkabelton wrote:fuck....!! i have to wait for seconds to do simple cuts....

it's horrible to work with!!!
you said you will improve this in L6, but it's still useless in arrangement.

any news on this?
Posted: Wed Nov 29, 2006 5:41 pm
no it's not fixed,i run a pentium dualcore with 2gig of ram.
and it's not..
the problem mostly occurs when i zoom in/out in the arrangement view... it lags for 1-2 seconds.. every time.
pretty please?
i really wanted to buy live as a xmas gift for myself hehe..
but now.
