Virtual Machine Use

Post by YISH313z »

Has it not been possible with technology to run Scope 32bit in a Virtual Machine?

we are talking about a latency free system driver, with a program that runs on hardware DSP chips, not CPU, for the most heavy processing that it performs.

Pipe midi and audio through the network to the parent PC and BAM!!

That is, if the technology we have now can do this with Scope Software.

Something about having all in one box. Just a thought.

So if my motherboard is equipped with VT-d this won't work?

Went through this just to see if it could run on Linux. It is likely *possible*, but needs the right VM container to connect the VM's memory space to PCI, as that is really what the OS is supposed to do & manage. Many free VMs offer only Ethernet and USB devices, not direct memory mapping to the base system resources.
