ableton wav stems lagging

Post by Talált » Tue Sep 18, 2012 12:11 am

hey guys, i'm finishing up a track and bounced mostly everything to audio, ableton 8.

i'm getting a shit ton of laggy cut out of the samples, kinda freezes up ableton, says buffering samples in the bottom right, flashing "R" in the upper left.

how can i work around this?

thanks

try loading all of them into RAM, by clicking the RAM button on the waveform view of the clip

Indeed, have that problem routinely, the RAM button on audio clips is the shit.

damn, i did this, destroyed everything. it freezes and i am forced to quit it, totally freezes everything up, makes me wish i never bothered hah.

and stupid me saved it with the ram activated on every clip so the project is corrupt now basically, it freezes everything up when i try to open it.

^^^^^^^

That's why "save a copy" is your friend. Try sending the ALS file to a buddy who has enough RAM to open it.
