Hey all,
I hope I’m not being an idiot and doing something silly. I’m experiencing an issue with ANA 2 that I don’t understand. It happens only on my PC. It doesn’t happen on my laptop.
I am using Ableton Live 10 Suite Edition. When I load a preset up in Ana 2 on my PC, it will play fine inside of Ana 2, and if I have midi set up for it to play, it plays it. As soon as I back out of Ana 2 and return to the DAW, I stop track and play again and the preset has changed. It sounds like only the bass tones of the preset are playing. To get it to play the preset again, I need to open ANA 2 back up, select another preset, then go back to the one I was using, and it will load in the full sound. But as soon as I stop track / back out of ANA 2, the same thing happens and when I play back the track only the bass tones of that preset are audible (I don’t fully know how to explain it, but its a sound that is similar to the preset, but with all modulation / filtering / envelopes / voices / detuning turned off)
This doesn’t appear to be a processing or memory problem as it doesn’t happen on my laptop which is significantly less powerful. However just to be sure I will list the stats of both machines bellow. Additionally, I can load up about 20 Massive presets with all sorts of effects on each channel live without any issue. I currently have about 6 instances of Arturias mini lab opened up in a project with 1 or 2 slate effects pluggins on each one, plus a fairly busy mastering chain and I am not experiencing this issue. It seems to be specific to only ANA 2.
Hopefully someone can give me some advice.
