Tell me, did you have the hoover noises too?

Yikes, the noise was awful..........

If you think some random interjection sound is like a hoover, it's highly likely that neither of you have any idea what a hoover sounds like.

*cough*

the good news is that i have found my host, and found the system I am going to use. Finally. And really, I am not kidding.

[BONES]

ofcourse I am talking about the vst effect, Bones, but mine are fully processing at the time. I can load up 8000 in logic if i want and there will be no cpu hit either if not processing stuff.

Well, I just asked because it seemed daft for you to be using effects as a guage when instruments tend to use a lot more CPU. unless your talking 19 tracks of audio, which is just boring.

Wouldn't that depend on what was onthe 19 tracks of audio?

nope - the Ambience test is way better for comparing hosts/cpu's - Ambience crunches cpu-power like there's no tomorrow - you simply need to load any .wav to a track (you can leave the default preset) and then duplicate that track a few times (might be this simple task ain't that easy in Orion though...) - you don't have the problem that you need to talk about how many voices you used, how many oscillators, what the release-settings were etc. blablabla - also Ambience is easily accessible to anyone regardless wether he's on Mac or pc - I only need copy the track six times b.t.w. on my XP2600+ Barton as my cpu maxes out after the seventh instance...

so 6 is stable on the barton? 7 overloads? is this on ext? what buffer size? That's pretty impressive from a now ageing 32bit cpu.

nope - seven is stable, eXT at 336samples

Been lurking a lot longer

(came here to read the news and read the Tracktion forum mostly, but joined up when I wanted to download some synth patches... and have been posting drivel ever since )
