Re: Bad, bad audio drop-outs in Live 7

["Per Boysen" <perboysen@gmail.com>]

Abletons forum has been down for twelve hours now, so I have not been
able to check with the guys over ther. Anyway, I noticed (from posts
here) that I did not describe the issue properly so I'd like to add
that it only happens when playing live audio through Live 7.x.

It doesn't matter if Live's sequencer is running or not and it doesn't
matter if I'm looping in a plug-in or not. The bug hits when audio
from the input is running through the software to be played back from
an output.

I have been using Live since version three, in both OS X and Windows
XP, and I have not seen this bug until versio 7.0. When 7.0.2 had the
same bug I stopped using Live because I knew a new version was on the
way - but now when 7.0.2 is here and still stops every tenth second
there must be something wrong with it! We have had an OS X upgrade
during this time, so I guess it must be related to Live.

What happens is that every tenth second the audio just stops for a
second. It's just like unplugging the chord, but no "pop" or so. Just
a blank "nothing", followed by the CPU jumping up to 111 percent from
the usual 5 percent. (Screensaver, sleep mode, bluetooth and airport
all turned off).

I'll post this to Ableton's bug report area as soon as they get the
forum running again.
