MY LOGIC PRO X SAMPLES HAVE POP SOFTWARE
What he said it both very important and something many people misunderstand.Ī Software instrument or FX Plugin controlled by Midi, can be CPU intensive. This is just semantics since you have to have an instrument to get the MIDI to sound.Īctually, in fairness to Pancenter, it's not semantics. Make sure you are running your laptop at its top setting. It drained the battery on this setting like crazy but pushed the little beastie harder for Garageband. My old iBook laptop had a setting in the energy saver that would boost performance. The track plugins use very little CPU, the mastering plugins, much more. This company also sells plugins specifically for tracks or mastering. For example, iZotope Ozone has a track setting and mixing setting. Sometimes the plugins themselves have a lower CPU setting. Use less processor intensive plugins on single tracks. There are other tricks to conserving power: Bouncing tracks down (ones you do not need to change) to a single track. With 16GB of RAM the plugin works beautifully even on the 128 samples buffer setting. I am using a very taxing piano AU instrument plugin that wouldn't even work properly when the buffer was lower than the maximum. If you have 4GB of RAM or less consider getting more. Higher buffer means more latency so you need to play with it to see what you can live with and still keep the live performance accurate. Ableton Live probably has a buffer setting you can play with.
