I have a desktop powerhouse I7 8GB with dedicated graphics fast SSD system drive and separate 7200 drive for audio recording and another drive for samples.

Works with the Ableton Push Controller Hosts VST Plugins - Download Ableton Live v9.6.2b5 here. See user reviews. Post your comments. Hard disk overload and sample buffer problems. On the top right hand side of ableton, next to the CPU indicator, there is a 'D' button which stands for hard disk overload. For some reason recently this button keeps blinking red and cutting the audio whenever it does. Specs of Mac.

No problem right? Wrong. Live 9 has been a pain. The CPU meter jumping around all over the place in large and small projects. My audio was crackling and popping every now and then and I am sure this is the reason. I tried all the usual tweaks, buffer size, background services, turn off wifi etc etc. No luck.
Strangely I found that turning off multiprocessor support made things better. Not completely better but the spikes seemed to be reduced and CPU use was less. This seemed really weird.
The other thing. Other DAWs were fine. Studio One etc all run smoothly.
Anyhow. My system is a Dell. I remember looking in power options before and the system was set to 'Dell Balanced'. I didn't think much of it. Until I looked more closely.
For a desktop PC, Dell by default had put together a power profile that throttled my CPU down to 5% minimum and 100% max. It was as if I had a laptop on power saving mode. There was no need for Dell to do this and I never in a million years thought a high spec desktop would have a crippling power saving profile.
So I switched the profile to high performance. 100% min and 100% max CPU and loaded up ableton.
Suddenly no spikes, low stable CPU use and multiprocessor mode made things even better (as it is meant to!).
Now this doesn't explain why other DAWs were fine. But I guess Ableton is more resource hungry.
Nevertheless. Check and double check your power settings in windows because it could be that which is throttling your CPU down. It seems obvious now, but I really was shocked to find that my desktop was being hamstrung by a silly Dell power management profile.
