Re: Ableton7+OSXLeopard+sooperlooper... workie?

Hi,

Thats the rig I'm using now. Its really great. The only thing is, is you need a really beefy Mac. I recently got a 2.4 gig PBP with 4 gigs of ram. I've played many gigs with this and it's rock solid. I couldn't be happier. My old 1.5 gig powerbook couldn't deal with it. Even with 2 gigs of ram. So far, this is my perfect solution.

So,(youve heard it before, but)  ive had it with the RC-50...  that special "cant sync with anything" feature makes it impossible to use in my current situation.   So im back to the drawing board. 

the question:

has anyone run the following config:?

Macbook Pro > Leopard (10.5.1) >  Ableton Live 7 > Sooperlooper

So far im running sooperlooper (and its exactly what im looking for, I THINK)

but Ableton 6 still crashes on me, even after a full hard drive wipe and new OS!!!

will Ableton 7 be more crashproof?   i am terrified of an on-stage-crash. 

will there ever be a solid solution?  A perfect tool with all the answers to all the glitches in our small looping world? 

i know its a stale subject at this point, but it sure is 

too bad Roland dropped the ball on the RC-50.   they were so close !!!
