tell me what can cause massive problems with hard disk overloads? i mean even with 2 samples or so playing and cpu near 0 % it just doesn't stop skiping the sounds!
always when a sample is meant to start there is like one half second mute...
what could i check to undo that ??
thanks very much for your help

hrmm.. when i have gapping problems, sometimes it helps to stop and restart my sound module...
are your samples loaded into ram? to load them into memory, you just click the RAM button in the sample window... that might help them start playing faster if they are long samples.. but of course you should have a healthy amount of ram...
don't know dude... hrmmm..

hrrrm..
well i don't think i've ever had a problem like that. i have 512 ram as well.
Is it with every sample you try to play? Maybe your HD needs defragging? that's weird man.

free disc space helps, scratch disc. Never fill a drive more 3/4 full.
Preferably less.

Happens sometimes (track that was pushing 40% cpu earlier pushing 80% even though nothing changed) but rebooting always seems to fix it.

1-Make sure the proper audio card settings are selected. 2-Make sure you have your buffers set to a reasonable level (if you are getting gaps/clicking, then they are set too low).
3-Make sure you have the proper audio drivers loaded onto your computer. Make sure that you have asio installed, and a compatible version of DirectX.
4-Make sure the proper ammount of processor is dedicated to your application (if it is set to a maximum of 5%, then reguardless of how much ram you have it won't help)
I am not too familiar with ableton (spent about 15 minutes with it), but these are all problems that music software have in common that cause what you are talking about.

now it is definately not a latency problem because i tried it on different settings on my card and it happens even with just one sample and 0 % cpu.
the asio 4 all thing might work but it just works fine for me on floops - in ableton the out channels are somhow disabled

If you just concentrate on your av from the waist down, it looks like a buttlegs monster.
