Glitch Pops in Ableton Live 8 only when track is armed…?

Hello world. Im having a little issue. I am attempting to record sounds off my Microkorg into ableton but i keep getting lame pops in the audio. I am using a M-audio Fasttrack Pro to route the sounds through. When the track is un-armed i get clear and beautiful sound but when i click the arm button i hear pops in the audio every 10-15 seconds or so. But why… :confused:

HELP! :smiley:

You could just record the midi notes, and then set up to trigger the Microkorg instead? That might work out better and could be a work around of your audio problem

3

Im still figuring out ableton so bare with me. Are you suggesting i plot out the notes in a midi track and then somehow use the microkorg sounds in this midi track?

4

Yeah pretty much, not familiar with the MicroKorg, but does it have a Midi in port?

5

Just Goolged some images of it, and it seems like you should be able to do that just fine. You should be able to record the midi notes from the korg, and just send them back to it to trigger it.

Of course… you still have to record the audio some how now that I think about it, so that doesn’t really solve the problem

Yes i just figured that out ha.:disappointed:

Im sure someone somewhere knows somthing bout this…

it’s probably your soundcard what computer are you using?

if it is a snow leopard mac then the pop is a bug and AVID the big morons
are trying to fix it… they have been since snow leopard came out.
but since it’s avid well it could take a while or even never get fixed.

i would suggest re-installing the drivers.

but really if you can afford it, by a different soundcard.! :smiley: goodluck

just saw you had a pc, well actualy some of my friends who use Protools M-powered on their pc have had bad crashes, really the soundcard is terrible on most platform, use XP or leopard think it would work better

The Hp Touchsmart has the beats audio soundcard built in but i am routing the synth through a M-audio fast track pro.

i was talking about the M-audio fasttrack pro… your hp soundcard has nothing to do with it
for the same price as the fast track i would go for a different company then m-audio.

sorry i realized i wasn’t clear the first time around :stuck_out_tongue: in my head you were using Pro-tools. but i believe the fasttrack has issues all around with different DAW!

what version of ableton are you using mate?

I am currently using the lite version that comes with the novation launchpad.
