Members Anderton Posted July 24, 2007 Author Members Share Posted July 24, 2007 I think the reasoning is that as you're basically using ReWire with a slave to feed raw audio in a host, that you would use plug-ins in the host. Of course, the "Achilles Heel" of that approach is what happens if the ReWire slave was proprietary plug-ins that have no other equivalent? Still, for my purposes, being able to treat live as a loop generator for use with other programs has turned out to be pretty useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amplayer Posted July 25, 2007 Members Share Posted July 25, 2007 Still, for my purposes, being able to treat live as a loop generator for use with other programs has turned out to be pretty useful. I personally don't like that approach because it means you have to START the whole process with both programs going. The thing I love about Reason is that you can start working on a loop or other chunk of music with ONLY Reason running, and then run Reason as a slave later without changing anything.

Members bighead734 Posted February 10, 2008 Members Share Posted February 10, 2008 I'm fairly new to Live 6 and I have pretty much an entire song recorded in it. It was really easy to lay down all the tracks and edit what needed to be edited. The problem is the song is over 20 tracks long and when I hit play the sound cuts out and cuts in later in the song. The CPU overload light is going off and it is frustrating the crap out of me. I have an Hp desktop with XP Pro, 3 Ghz P4, 1 GB of RAM(I know I should up to 2), and a line 6 toneport for inputing. I've tried backing up all my data and completely restoring to factory settings and reinstalling everything and get the same problem. When there is only a few tracks playing it doesn't happen as often, but when I have a VST like EZDrummer running it doesn't like to cooperate. I've gotten rid of all the tracks that I didn't need anymore and deactivated all the VSTs after mixing down to another track and it still won't play straight through without skipping and cutting out. Should I be editing all the empty areas out of all the tracks or should I group and mix down similar tracks to 1 or 2 tracks, I really don't want to do that should I want to make another mix of the song. I have a digital 16 track recorder and I moved to PC recording so I could escape the confines of 16 tracks and mixing down tracks to free up additional tracks. Somebody please tell me I made a good choice in switching to PC recording. Keep in mind that I have NO money to spend on a new computer or a better processor at this time and probably not for a while. I just want to know of an easy fix to this problem.

Members Anderton Posted February 11, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 11, 2008 1. "Freeze" any soft synth tracks. 2. Increase the latency of your audio interface. 3. Convert your short clips to RAM clips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bighead734 Posted February 12, 2008 Members Share Posted February 12, 2008 I have no soft synth clips. And if I increase the latency, wouldn't that delay the tracks when recording? Also, what is a RAM clip? Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members particlesguitar Posted July 18, 2008 Members Share Posted July 18, 2008 What you can do is try freezing the tracks that your not working on and then unfreeze em when its there turn to be mixed. This will cause your CPU load to go down dramatically. Increasing the latency of your toneport in the mixing process won't cause a delay because you aren't recording anything else. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
