(i know, a lot of pressure for that small machine) System is a core 2 duo 2.4, 4gb ram with a seagate 7200 rpm 500 gb

Track-count is 33 split to 10 busses and a a few tracks without bus. Samples are at 2048, plugin buffer is as audio buffer, standard-warp mode is repitch but used complex for some i think. Yes it's the latest 8.21, 44.1 and 24 bit.some imported vocals are at 96 khz, some samples are lo-fi at 16 bit. Sorry i'm not that professional, have to look that up I really look into that hybrid drive, but i'm really not sure if it can help in my situation. So is it wise then to split samples? Move some to the external, some to the external, or would it be easier to lets say move all to the external and ableton runs from the internal HD?

So your conclusion is whether it is SSD or another external HD, it will help if Ableton can read from 2 places simultanously so to speak? Problem with firewire is that i already have my apogee duet hooked up, can i just use a firewire hub? I have all tracks frozen (except busses of course) and buffer set to highest, if you mean that by condensed?Īs the HD overload light is flashing when these droputs / skipping occurs i'm pretty sure the HD is the culprit.

Well it only happens if the set is crowded, several tracks with plugins, effects on the master bus etc. You could also condense your sets.thanks for your help! You will need to use FW800 for the SSD to be worth it.Ī disk drive might be all you need to take stress away from your main drive. SSD's are fast, but USB 2.0 peaks at 60MB/s and will negate that speed. Have you absolutely verified the HD is causing it? Do you have the latest version of Live?
