Ableton Live 11 keyboard playing issue

Hi!
I have windows 11 x64. Live's version is 11.0.6.
When I play my MIDI keyboard with VSTi instruments I have dropouts. But I see that the MIDI keyboard is connetced and sending its signals correctly to a VSTi. But there's no sound.
I've found that it happens when high velocities are played (ff or fff). So I have to reload VSTi - that's the only way to repair sound from it. But Nexus has different behavior. It just makes itself a lot quiter. And I just should stop playback and play it again (2x on the spacebar).
Any thoughts?

Was it working fine before you upgraded Windows to 11?Nofolobricity wrote: Mon Oct 11, 2021 3:48 am Hi!

Also, I believe current stable version of Live is 11.0.11 (and 11.1.5 beta) so perhaps see if updating it fixes the problem?

I've been working long time on FL, Cubase, S1 on previous Windowses and for some time on Win 11. There was no such a problem. And I've been using Live only on Win 11.antic604 wrote: Mon Oct 11, 2021 1:52 pmWas it working fine before you upgraded Windows to 11?Nofolobricity wrote: Mon Oct 11, 2021 3:48 am Hi!

Ok, just checking - you're aware that in Live when you use QWERTY keyboard as MIDI input keys Z/X change octave and C/V change velocity? Perhaps you've reduced velocity and/or got outside of hearable frequency range (for given instrument/patch)? Do MIDI clips play correctly and the issue is only with QWERTY keyboard? That would be weird.Nofolobricity wrote: Tue Oct 12, 2021 8:24 am I've been working long time on FL, Cubase, S1 on previous Windowses and for some time on Win 11. There was no such a problem.

Yes sir, of course I know Z/X and C/V on this keyboard. Actually I play real midi keyboard: M-Audio Oxygen 61 silver (old version). And I cannot use QWERTY one cause it's too uncomfortable for me.antic604 wrote: Tue Oct 12, 2021 8:54 amOk, just checking - you're aware that in Live when you use QWERTY keyboard as MIDI input keys Z/X change octave and C/V change velocity?

Oh, sorry - for some reason I thought this was with QWERTY keyboard. My badNofolobricity wrote: Tue Oct 12, 2021 11:05 amYes sir, of course I know Z/X and C/V on this keyboard.

Anyway, have you tried to update Live to most recent version?

Im so sorry! This time I just forgot to press the red arm/record button. This was the reason! My bad! I'm just a newby in Ableton Live DAW. But I wasted 45 minutes to understand thisthecontrolcentre wrote: Thu Oct 14, 2021 2:11 pm Does audio work without the compressor effect rack?
