end of the pci bandwidth problem : Sd GENERATION BOARDS!!!!

Post by bill3107 »

Just to let people know that, whereas i had some pci bandwidth overflow when using P100 from sonictimeworks (more than 1 in the project or when adding some other plugs) i can now load 3 or 4 P100 (full verion) without any problem !!!!! Why ? i have now only second generation boards and, that's amazing, evrything is faster and stable stable stable... Damn, i am so happy ! I Amazing as my mobo is 3 years old (asus p4g8x, P4 2,4 ghz, 1 Go samsung ram). Now i can load all what i want, i will go for a 14 dsp asap to increase the whole power ... :) :) :) :) :)

I was so frustrated before and since i have put those last generation board that's a dream. Hope it helps all those who want to use the best reverb for creamware station.

no i won't :D ; i have already tried to add a friend's 14 dsp (that makes 6+6+14) and the spell remains... i can load all the devices without any problem at all.

Actually i had exchanged a 15dsp against 2 scope projects (i wanted to split my system) and i suppose that my scope was a first generation because i can now have a 4ms latency (option not available on my scope). So, it is obvious (and confirmed by the the P100 developper) that second generation is a key point when it comes to run such big plugins...

The sole problem :P is that scope was initially only intended to mix my projects (P100 as main reverb !) and now i cannot avoid to use also the synth ... an aditional 6 dsp could be fine but as there is an increasingly number of good plugins, i will go for a 14dsp for sure ! :P :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hope this thread will help those who want to take profit of the STW P100 without sacrificing other plugs...
