OT - My old Celeron

[Kiwiboyus]

I have upgraded my first PC ( 300Mhz Celeron w/256Ram),
bit by bit to the point where I have a new PC and the
old one as a spare. I'm looking for a free no frills sequencer that will actually run on the old girl (which now resides on my office), so that I can "jot" down ideas at lunch time. Tracktion won't run on it so I can't use that. I even tried CMuzys but that craps out aswell

Any ideas?

EnergyXT maybe?

EnergyXT maybe?

Weird but for the life of me I cannot find the system requirements for this.... oh well I've been thinking about getting this time so I should play with it a bit first

Cheers!

Is it actually CMuzys crapping out, or is the system dying under VSTi load?

If you just want a pure sequencers, w/o a need for VST/VSTi support, look at Jazz++ (http://www.jazzware.com). That's freeware (open source) and pretty lightweight (also kinda old, and definitely no-frills). I've run it on a Pentium II / 450 with no problems whatsoever ('course, I can also run CMuzys on that machine).

I would think tracktion would run at least ok on ur celeron. I used traction on a celeron 500, and it did pretty well. I'm using it on a mac G3 333mhz, and it does fine on that too. I'm very careful with vst effects though. kj.
