[Question] Playback Bug

Hi, I got a live show recorded on Ableton that I'm gonna use as a virtual soundcheck and every time that I set a new playback position it lags and I have to force quit and reopen every time.

Anyone experiencing this?

I've got my buffer size all the way up, I did a Collect All & Save so it doesn't miss the files but none of the options have made it run smoothly.

I'm running Live 12.4 on an M4 chip, 24Gb of RAM and up to 200gb of free space.

You might try to delete your cache. It will be rebuilt as required, so you don't risk losing anything. Not 100% guaranteed to be successful but it's the first thing to do when unexplainable playback problems occur.
