Set your memory to 50MB of RAM. MAKE SURE VIRTUAL MEMORY IS OFF IN THE
CONTROL PANELS. This will only slow down your Mac (not recommended if you
have less than 128 MB of RAM / the more the better). Virtual memory (on Macs
or PCs) uses the hard disc to mimic more physical memory. The added time
this takes slows down performance. Make sure you are using ASIO drivers if
available. You should not at any time change your Mac's general sound I/O
from MacAV in the control panels. Doing so will conflict with the drivers as
they are set in Logic. For example I use the VXPocket for a Powerbook (Mac),
my Control Panel's sound is set to "Built-In", and Logic has MacAV disabled.
Instead, Logic engages the ASIO driver for the VXPocket. Switching the
control panel to VXPocket would create a conflict and unnecessarily disable
the metronome which plays through Mac AV (meaning, in this configuration, I
do not need an external device to play the metronome). -Jer
