Hey guys,br
br
This is a bit of a weird one that I wanted to discuss with you, I wondered really whether anyone may have come across something similar.br
br
Basically projects now keep crashing so I emailed Ableton and sent them crash reports. I got this response:br
br
br
"Hi Rob,br
br
thank you for contacting Ableton!br
the last crashes all happened because Live was running out of memory. The 32-bit version of Live, like every 32-bit application, can address up to 4GB memory on a 64-bit operating system and up to 2GB on a 32-bit system. It will crash when it requires more than those 4GB or 2GB respectively.br
br
At the moment I see two options for you:br
br
- lower the memory load of your projects for example by freezing and flattening tracks and by using resource friendly plug-ins.br
br - install a 64-bit operating system (e.g. Windows 7 or Windows 8 64-bit and then install the 64-bit version of Live. The installer can be downloaded here:br

br
Please note that the 64-bit version of Live supports 64-bit plug-ins, only. Please find further informations here:br

Now this is all very well and good but these new projects are running not br
even half as many plug ins as previous projects I’ve had over the 5-6 years br
I’ve been using Ableton.br
br
These projects were on my old computer and on live 8, I wondered if it was br
my computer but I’m running a much higher spec now, so then I wondered if it br
was Live 9.br
I refuse to believe it’s that I have too many plug in’s running as I am br
running less than half as many as all projects i’ve ever had in the 5-6 br
years i’ve been using Ableton.br
br
Have Ableton reduced the GB with live 9 or could there be a bug/fault or br
even a PC hardware issue??br
br
This is too strange guys.br
