I get the point in terms of tracking to insufficient RAM on the macbook, but I still maintain whether a mediocrely recorded instrument track isn't able to adjust when played back on a proper system.? Otherwise there's no wireless involved, mouse etc.
I'm not surfing while on PT but have to admit that I do not always turn off wifi. Yeah, system usage seemed fine though (15%) and optimizations are set to 'normal' indeed. As to the iMac - have you done the 'normal' optimizations? Are you trying to surf the net the same time you're working ion PT? Do you have any kind of wireless connection going on when working in PT other than maybe mouse & computer keyboard? Wireless internet can cause all kinds of problems. Both tend to be a bit on the high side of cpu usage at least for me and the system on my profile page.Īs Christopher says that 4 gig in the laptop is literally unusable - you need to add more ram pure and simple. What kinds of vi's are you triggering by your MIDI? Samplers like Kontakt, Sampletank or Omnisphere or what I call computational synths like NI FM8, Vacuum or any of the Arturia stuff? If samplers are your samples stored to a separate drive from the system and recording drives? Also crackling and popping - is everything plugged into the same AC mains outlet?įM8 and Massive are what I call computational versus samplers like Kontakt.
They differ quite a bit time and time again but wouldn't disappear. I would have thought so with audio, but since this is sort of midi I thought it would adjust itself depending on the surroundings computer-wise.Īlso, for instance when I loop one of the clips, those cracklings never occur in the same spot with the same intensity. So does that mean that once an instrument track is being recorded under non-ideal circumstances (unsufficient RAM, slow hd etc.) all of its downsides are literally being 'printed' onto the file? I test-opened the session on the partition too, and there's no difference. I hooked it up to the imac by now that has a partitioned hard drive for tracking as well, but i'm only editing/mixing here - no tracking involved. Plus I did record to the external hd plugged into the macbook. However the one i was using for the particular session may not be the quickest though. Yeah, I always record to external hard drives. Thanks a lot for the info so far Southsidemusic!
