Hey Phil,
Question about your message below. When you stated about Jaws and Ct not working with 64 bit and Xp. Are you talking Xp with 64 bit? The reason why I am asking is am running Xp, 64 bit with Jaws Ct and don't have any problems

Hi Chi!!

You may want to consider upgrading your CPU to a duel core processor. Duel core processors are chips that have 2 processors on one chip. For example, if you had a duel core 3 gig then, in actual fact, you would have 6 gig of processing power.

Regarding the 64 bit version of Windows, Jaws or, CT don't work on it at all. I am not sure if Jaws will ever be coded for the 64 bit version of Windows Xp. They may get around to coding it for vista though.

Hi,

I have a 2.9ghz intel cpu, 1gb ddr ram, and 2 300gb sata hard drives.
At first, I was doing small production like rhythm section plus vocal, and I had no problem in terms of computer power.
But as I aproach my graduation from a music college, I found myself involved with bigger projects such as dealing with studio orchestra with lots of additional tracks (rhythm section, synth, voice, and so on).
My school provide record session at a professional commercial studio with protool, then I bring the entire session on a hard drive and import on a sonar project that I've been already working on with some midi tracks to be added with live recording.
When loading the heavy project, jaws started to become sluggish, and it caused drop outs especially when inserting some indivisual effects for certain tracks and bus effects.
I'm using asio with 512 latency. I can't even think about 128 latency. it won't even start playing. Just drop out before playback!
Anyways, I was thinking about upgrading my system, but I realized there are quite a few upgrades coming up.
Sonar upgraded to 5.2, and jaws released public beta upgrade, and I believe windows vista is coming out sometimes later.
Top of that, there's new jaws script for sonar from JSonar Development.
Not to mention, there's sibelius that I need to use to make scores for orchestra and so on. Sibelius also upgraded.
I'm lost with all those near future stuff. What do you all think I should do? I'd appreciate all of your oppinion.
thanks,


PS: Does jaws and caketalking run on windows 64 eddition?
