I'll confess that I usually never use the included effects in mDrummer, but as there's a shiny new "effects tab" I figured I'd give it a go. On my Dell dual coreduo 2.5 mhz machine I couldn't get any of the reverbs to work without totally pegging the CPU! Seems odd considering I was at 11% CPU usage before I turned on the effects.

You use 16 out version right? ;) The thing is, that you probably inserted the reverb to all outputs, which means 16 reverbs! I suggest you either use less outputs (or MDrummer1out), or manipulate the effects manually in the Effects tab, so that you can control each output separately.

Btw. Coreduo isn't really the fastest processor. In fact, I think Intel doesn't manufacture it anymore and the only company that uses it is Apple as usual :D.

Actually it's a core duo two I think... I forget, but it's an OK maschine. Sorry... I'm the type of guy that can still actually make music on a G5. :-o

The thing is I wasn't using the 16 out version, just normal stereo out... I think. I'll check, maybe I screwed up.
