Very good to know, even if it's bad news. I do small pop music sessions with a fair amount of RTAS instruments. My dual 2. You're absolutely right, Hobson. Thanks for your note. Digi and Third party have to be updated.. Hey Benjamin, I just went through these paces a couple weeks ago. It took me two full days of studio time to get the machine into action, but 5 billion emails and 3 billion authorization codes later, it was more than well worth it.

I had to open up a mix for a band I was doing on my Dual 2. Have you started the process? It hurts but goes faster than one would expect. Hey Dwayne, I need to work quickly for now so I bought a new larger, faster hard drive for my G5 so that I can get to work quickly for the immediate things at hand.

If you see it again it's because something has changed so please set your preferences accordingly. I'm trying to do low-latency recording and I can't seem to get the buffer below without it crapping out. Are there other options I need to be looking at to get the stability up and the latency down.

I'm pretty sure the MBP should be able to handle really low latency settings for the buffer. It has no problem handling the same number of tracks in Reason 6.

Interface is a Metric Halo [email protected] for guitar Yamaha [email protected] for drums Automatic delay compensation is set to "long" I'm using 8 tracks to do drums, and then trying to record guitar and it sounds really weird and phasey because of the delay, making the guitarist angry.

I have 4 gigs of ram and the best quad core i7 they put in Macbook Pros right now 2.

Its pretty beefy, and has NO trouble running times the tracks in Reason 6. PT 10 requires a minimum of 4 Gb RAM, so yes, you would dealing with the lower end of track count, as the application is using most of your resources. If you have a mix of tracks that have plug ins on them, you should see how many samples they are delaying, and then set the ADC appropriately. Doc Mixwell. My Studio. The Hybrid Engine in practice. The Hybrid Engine decouples the DSP hardware from the native mixing engine, and this allows users to run mostly native sessions, only relying on DSP on desired tracks during recording.

There is the option to exclude tracks from this inherited DSP mode; an example of when you might wish to have that happen is on a reverb return. The only users who are excluded are users of virtual instruments.

The most immediate benefit to HDX users is that their track counts will no longer be constrained by their available DSP and the number of HDX cards they have installed.
