| Mobius inside of Ableton. I tried hard to get Abletons looper to work for me but I couldn't.....but it could just be me. Ableton has great integrated tutorials. I still as of today can't do looping and effects with a Macbook Pro i7, Fireface UC on OSX. I have to boot the machine into Win7 that is tweaked out to not have random loud audio glitches. I've been troubleshooting the thing for a year awaiting the day I don't have to use Bootcamp. (Yes this is at 128 sample buffer) Every time an audio glitch happens(sounds like a synthy/bit reduction type sound for a few seconds) I can go into Console and see the message where there was a buffer underun. Although this is just my experience..... as Mr. Reynolds and Zoe both use Macbook pros with Ableton and it seems like they tour with it no prob. Maybe its the dual i7 cpu in the 2010 MBP? Who knows. I'd love to a glitch free system going in OSX. I never use over 20 percent of the cpu. Tim Exile has talked in forums about his trouble using a 2010 mbp for live use. He was able to fix it by disabling hyperthreading and 1 cpu! I tired it but that solution didnt work for me. Maybe the new 4 core i7 MBP's dont have the core audio glitches? My vote is if your good with computers is to build a windows box. That way if you run into issues you have much more control over the OS and don't have to sit around and wait, hoping that Apple will fix your issue.

I have a macbook 13" 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, but I'd be willing to get a macbook pro, or even build a windows box. Todd Matthews twitter: gtodd876 |
