I've got a problem on my machine with Ableton Live 7. When I'm running 6 or more clips my CPU load meter is topping 50%. The result is delayed playback, it takes forever to load and run, and basically isn't running as smooth and quickly as it should. Here's my system specifications: ibook G4 Mac OSX Version 10.4.11 Processor - 1.42 GHz PowerPC G4 Memory - 1.5 GB DDR SDRAM L2 Cache - 512KB BUS SPEED 142 MHz Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks so much for the help.

Hi Pdyx Have you repaired permissions on your machine recently or done any other maintenance procedures? Try some of these FAQ's from the Abelton website: [url]http://www.ableton.com/faq[/url] My concern is that your machine is quite close to the minimum requirements to Live. So quit any non-essential applications running in the background, set the buffer settings a bit higher and experiment to see how low a setting you can achieve with little latency. Let us know if any of the above helps. Rounik
