EXS Best Performance in LAMP

EXS Best Performance in LAMP

2001-10-19 by rpalagy@nyc.rr.com

I'd like to know what people are running with the EXS and LAMP 
4.7.

I've got a G4 450 with 512 Ram and I can get about 16-18 tracks 
with about 6 EXSs and 2 EVPs and about 10 plugins before I 
start stuttering, failing, etc.  I'm keeping the buffer low to reduce 
latency but without moving to say the Powercore or UAD  card  or 
a faster processor I don't know how I'm going to get more out of 
it.

Hi
Your machine is serving you well.
I have G3 300 running 4.7.3 and can say mine will do exactly as yours but
fucks up at about 13 audio tracks. I have an Echo Gina card.
Enjoy

Don't know how many audio tracks I can get, but I've had 7 or 8 VST
instruments with about 10 VST plugs of various DSP-sucking weight, without
dropouts. That's about the razor's edge, though. I max out on about every
4th song I write, and have to do some bouncing.

why don't you increase your buffersize at mixdown?
or do you play live instruments when bouncing?

Question regarding Reason and Logic...

2001-10-20 by Lee Jones

Can anyone tell me how I connect Reason into Logic?
I am running 4.7.3 and my machine is well capable of the task. Do I need
something called Re-wire? And if so how do I use it?
Cheers
Lee

It's spelled out in detail in the Reason PDF file...in a user friendly way.

Check that out and then come back with some detailed questions if you still
haven't gotten it.

Re: EXS Best Performance in LAMP

2001-10-20 by Paul Duff Gorman

I'm also curious about real-world reports with EXS using ESB/TDM....

# Instances of EXS?
Latency?
Recommended RAM?
Hard drive issues?
Anything else?

thanks for any opinions...

My setup is this
G3 300 
OS 9.1
And also can Neil Goldstein please explain what he is talking about
regarding Reason, as I have no idea what PDF document you are talking about
or where I might find it.
Thanks in anticipation
Lee

Its right on the Reason CD Rom. And it should have installed in your Reason
folder on your Mac when you installed Reason. Double click the document,
which I believe is called Manual.PDF and it should open. There's a chapter
dedicated to Rewire.

I'm always fascinated with this comment.  I write using the 
plugins so it's not like I track lots of tracks and then say okay now 
I'll mix it.  I'm mixing from the moment I'm writing because the 
plugins influence how a track will sound.

Ditto. But you could increase the buffer during the final Bounce/Audio dump.

i hear you, i used to work like this.
but at some point you will know what plug suits you best on the material.
i then bounce, simply to be able to use more plugs.
i found that dividing your work (ie building a song or whatever) in smaller
steps is good practice.
i keep old songs, but make new ones with bounces plugs. to get power for
mixdown and new ideas. this keep me from endless tweaking, which is no good.
