Re: any advice to my problem? DTX and Battery

2004-01-06 by buggoutbill

OK, I just tried it out using Cubase VST 5.1, with the LM-9 plugin, 
and it worked. The only thing I had to do was change MIDI note 
numbers on the DTXpress. I played for over a few minutes without any 
lockups.

Then I fired up Reason, and after a few tweaks to the DTXpress's MIDI 
note numbers, was able to control Reason with it. No lockups their 
either.

My rig:
Athlon 1.2, Gigabyte motherboard w/ VIA chipset
512MB Ram
Echo MIA soundcard
M-Audio USB Midisport 2x2
Windows XP Pro

Also, my box is streamlined for audio. No games, no Instant 
Messengers, RealPlayers, Office, nothing. Except Cubase, Reason, 
SoundForge, etc. The usual music-making stuff.

Make sure you don't have any 'extra' programs running: Instant 
Messenger, Real Player, firewalls, anti-virus, file-swapping progams, 
etc.

You may want to run a progam like Ad-Aware to cleanup any 'spyware' 
that may be on your system, which may be causing problems.

Without actually being in front of your computer, I have to take some 
wild guesses. Please bear with me. :)
