STS sampler on multiprocessor CPU/Windows 8

Post by YISH313z »

Has anyone been successful getting the STS samplers to work without freezing/crashing on Windows 8, with a multi-core cpu?

As much as I love the speed of making music with strickly VSTs and Kontakt and etc, evrytime I play a song I did with the STS sampler it sounds better to my ears(IMO) and any other dsp based sampler for that matter, missing it right now. Its about the sound for me.

32 or 64bit?
there's no issue that i know of in 32bit, but of course there are no sts samplers in 64bit...

for reasons you mentioned, on 32 bit with a Muti-Processor CPU(non-disabled cores).

shouldn't be an issue, although there's an update to win8 that's been making trouble, KB2919355

Does this one cause the many dialog prompts when opening scope? I have that issue and even after reinstalling scope.

I have never been able to get the sts samplers to stop freezing on xp without change the processer type to uni

dialog prompts? i'm not sure what you mean. i'd have to see the screenshots.

uni-processor only on XP? well, maybe in v3 or XP sp1. there haven't been problems with multiprocessors for some time as far as Scope and XP goes. maybe something about your setup or mix of software?

have you got the sdk

as some of us had problem where it used an earlier driver file and the delays stopped working

reverting to the scope 5.1 driver sorted this out
