Multiple songs opened cause EXS to drop samples! Help
2003-09-07 by seclogic
Hi everyone, Desperately need help on this one: Trying to use a 17" titanium laptop for live music: MacOS X, Logic 6.1, Motu 828. The problem: when I have up to four songs opened (each one with five to eight EXS instruments ) everything is alright. As soon as I open the fifth song the exs instruments start to loose the samples they were previously absolutely fine in working with. To make things more complicated I used to do the same thing on my old G4 laptop on OS 9 and Logic 5. So, apart from making OSX/Logic 6 versions of the songs everything remains the same. For example in OS 9 all the songs opened at the same time would not use more than 400mb of memory. Now in OSX I know that with 4 songs opened Logic is still using only 30% of the power available. Anyone had this problem before? Sorry if it has already been discussed here, I couldn't find anything... Thanks, Mano
