    Thanks for this tip! Never knew about it. Combained this one with RAM option. What helped me for real was clicking through all the samples so Ableton loads them.

      Pulling samples from one directory will speed up loading times.

    Thank you!!
    Make sense to have all the files in the same folder!
    We just did this and the track we was working on load up fast when opening it so it helped big time!
    Usually it take a longer time to open up a track with tons of tracks.
    Now everything is on one folder and the opening time was super fast and hopefully this will help it run better too!
    We have a 4TB thunderbolt SSD so helped big time!
    Thank you!

      The reason it works is that all files are pulled from one location, rather than different directories on the drive.

    Great video my dude thank you. I am wondering if you know what else could be an issue as this didn't work for me. My CPU usage is way down, it is just the 'disc' that keeps flashing up and cutting out audio. I am only trying to record guitar over an mp3 backing track so just can't figure out what could be up... I have a decent laptop too with SSD

    • @Iam92Waves
      @Iam92Waves  Рік тому +1

      So you only have an mp3 bed and a track you are recording into? Maybe this has to do with your interface's latency, rather then the audio file being read from the SSD? I will assume you are on windows. Are you using MME/directx or Asio?

      @@Iam92Waves Hey dude thank you for the response. Yes, I just simply drag/drop an mp3 backing track into an audio track, and set up a guitar track to record solos and riffs over. ProTools First worked fine for years but haven't had success with the switch to Ableton Live Lite. It could be the interface latency, however I did change the buffer and sample rate. I am using Asio.
      I have just tried resetting my laptop as the performance overall had dropped off recently (which was strange as it was technically it's 'cleanest' in a while) so I will go from here and give an update!:)

    • @LilStand
      @LilStand Рік тому +1

      @@CHOEYGMUSIC is it the native driver for the interface? How far high is your sample rate? I personally would do 44.1 and latency as far as you can without dropping.
      That way you’re not creating artifacts when downsampling, as any professional wav you buy is at 44.1

      @@LilStand thank you for the tips! I have managed to resolve them for now - however it did involve me factory resetting my laptop! Which was a pain and put me a few days back, but I am now able to record again so up we go from here!:) appreciate the response :)

    HI, wow, that's all. I usually do that when I'm transferring a file to someone else but I am mixing a track right now. All audio files and it's just been hitting my hard disk, I clicked on RAM on each stem and it didn't help. I'm going to follow your suggestion and do this. I was hoping to perhaps re-sample some stems together but that was going to be my last resort since I want all the instruments separated. Thank you so much. 💙

    • @Iam92Waves
      @Iam92Waves  6 років тому +1

      I hope it helped. If you are running the samples on an HDD, it might slow down due to its limitations. Steming will always be better, since the HDD only has to send one file out over 10. However, you don't have the flexibility of multiple tracks.

      That means that your hard drive can't keep up sending data, or your system is bottlenecking somewhere else.

      What you are doing by collecting all and saving is transferring any audio files to the project folder. Are you using multiple drives?

      @@crisnla1 collect all and save puts the files on the directory the project is. If the files live on the external SSD, it is pulling everything from there.
      If you are using a USB ssd, you might be limited from that. However, that is a big project. That's prolly why you're experiencing this in the first place.

    • @Iam92Waves
      @Iam92Waves  2 роки тому

      This could mean that your hard drive can not send data fast enough for the track to play. Or simply, the amount of files is causing throttling. Are you on a hard drive?
