I´m running win98 with Pulsar 3.01 with no problems and want go with winXP in the near future.
i don´t wanna upgrade to sfp yet (because of my projects). maybe I wanna install them together pulsar3.01 + sfp3.1c.
my question is:

is 3.01 running stable and without problems under winXP????

Moving from 98 to XPhome on 3.01 was the biggest stability improvement I've ever had with Pulsar.

Moving from 3.01 to 3.1 was the next best :wink:. Things just "feel" solid now - or maybe I've just got over the jitters I use to have from getting base.dll crashes ...

Happily I haven't seen one of those in a loooooong time now.

It at least won't hurt provided you have a powerful enough computer.

I had some problems with the Pulsar 3.0 software and Cubase SX (crackle when recording MIDI and/or audio) on WinXP, but SFP 3.1c fixed it. And I can set the latency than before. :smile:

I'm not sure which version, but they both use the same drivers. So I think both versions will have the same problem with SX.
