Post your PC spec's if your running T2 with NO PROBS!!!

[Madness]

I thought it might be an idea seeing as tho' some people are having pesky troubles if people who have NO PROBLEMS WHAT SO EVER post their pc specs ??

I am having a couple of problems , but for arguements sake here is the information im thinking would be of use. I am willing to swap out parts if someone points me to a flawless system.

AMD 2800 XP CPU
ASUS A7N8X Delux Motherboard (nforce 2 chipset) ABIT Radeon 9450 Video Card (with PCI Latency tweaked)
Delta 66
Segate SATA 120gb (AUDIO)
Samsung ATA100 (Operating system)

[.jon]

AMD XP1700+
Epox 8KHTA+ (VIA KT266A)
Club3D Radeon 9250 128Mb
Delta AP 2496
40+80Gb WD Caviars, audio is on a partition of the 40, sometimes elsewhere
1,5 Gb Kingston PC2700

no probs except I still don't like the MIDI editor.

I am willing to swap out parts if someone points me to a flawless system.

With the exception of a few oddities such as usb audio cards, or ASIO drivers the Tracktion doesn't like, I don't think you'll find system specifics is worth chasing after.

I've run Tracktion sucessfully on a pretty diverse range of setups without problem. I use AMD32s, AMD 64s, and a Intel M. I have VIA chipset boards, nVidia chipset boards, and an Intel chipset. Video cards range from AGP nVidia and ATI, to PCIE nVidia. Two of my machines are even running ASIO4All.

I've also seen people with basically identical setups experience different results. Indeed, I once installed a clean windows setup on my old amd32, installed Tracktion, and spent an hour trying to stop it stuttering when playing songs I had written just a few weeks earlier on that exact PC. Finally I got pissed off with it all, vaped the install and started over. Second time lucky. Why? Who bleedin' knows. Windows is like that I guess.

I suspect software config, other installed drivers, background services, and tweaking issues such as PCI latency are were the majority of differences exist.

Exactly why it's a good idea to have this thread. If a user having problems sees their hardware config here, that will help them to narrow it down to software issues, which would be far easier to resolve...

Tracktion has run fine on all machines I've tried it on, and there's no commonalities.

[Beardedone]

As far as I have used it, which is not that often, since I find the workflow very poor such that I have yet to finish any project I have started in T1 or T2. (Tracktion pales in comparison to Sonar 4, Live5, eXT or FLStudio5 IMHO). I don't use it for audio but T2 has been stable with the go-to VSTs I have tried. I have a Carillon AC1 P4 2.4 GHz with 1 GB RDRAM 800, Aardvark DP 24/96.

I've narrowed down the blame to either the phases of the moon, relative humidity or the colour shirt I'm wearing at the time of install!

IOW, you can drive yourself crazy trying to figure out which of the 10 billion variables and their interactions are responsible.

BTW-the above also saves money on aspirin purchases as well!

Asus P4P800SE mobo
Pentium 4 3.0Ghz (hyperthreading enabled)
2GB DDR SDRAM
ATI Radeon 9600XT
1 x Matrox 120GB HD
1 x Maxtor 240GB HD
1 x Asus CD-RW
1 x Pioneer DVD/RW
M-Audio Delta 44

Never a problem here, but then I barely push T2 at all.

[Stairsteps]

Just get Sonar and be done with all these problems

[SuitcaseOfLizards]

I'm within inches of saving up for Pro Tools M-Powered! Not because of any one thing.. just lots of little ones. It's the death of a thousand ant bites!



T2 works fine if I sequence everything on my Fantom and just use it for audio post work...
