Hi,
I have a 2.9ghz intel cpu, 1gb ddr ram, and 2 300gb sata hard drives.
At first, I was doing small production like rhythm section plus vocal, and I
had no problem in terms of computer power.
But as I aproach my graduation from a music college, I found myself involved
with bigger projects such as dealing with studio orchestra with lots of
additional tracks (rhythm section, synth, voice, and so on).
My school provide record session at a professional commercial studio with
protool, then I bring the entire session on a hard drive and import on a
sonar project that I've been already working on with some midi tracks to be
added with live recording.
When loading the heavy project, jaws started to become sluggish, and it
caused drop outs especially when inserting some indivisual effects for
certain tracks and bus effects.
I'm using asio with 512 latency. I can't even think about 128 latency. it
won't even start playing. Just drop out before playback!
Anyways, I was thinking about upgrading my system, but I realized there are
quite a few upgrades coming up.
Sonar upgraded to 5.2, and jaws released public beta upgrade, and I believe
windows vista is coming out sometimes later.
Top of that, there's new jaws script for sonar from JSonar Development.
Not to mention, there's sibelius that I need to use to make scores for
orchestra and so on. Sibelius also upgraded.
I'm lost with all those near future stuff. What do you all think I should
do? I'd appreciate all of your oppinion.
thanks,
PS: Does jaws and caketalking run on windows 64 eddition?
