It froze…

// June 14th, 2009 // Blog

So for the first time in about 2 years, I had a pretty interesting Ableton Live problem during the set.

The countdown video ended, lights went up…  I launched the click scene (launch BPM) for “You Lifted Me Out” to begin the set,
but nothing…..silence. Talk about awkward. Apparently my computer froze… which was strange. I couldn’t get Live to respond
at all. We ended up playing the song without click or loops (like that’s the end of the world, right?).

I ended up doing a hard computer restart during announcements (after the first song) and launched the MOTU and Ableton up again. Then we continued the rest of the set as usual.
I have no idea why it froze up like that. But I wanted to blog about it because it’s been a long time since I’ve had an awkard loop / albleton moment during worship.

The set today was You Lifted Me Out (Tomlin), Hosanna (Praise Is Rising), and Fall On Us Now (Dave Chumchal).
I just want to say that “Fall On Us Now” might be one of my favorite worship songs right now. If you haven’t heard it, check it out.
