[ddots-l] Re: firepod latency and performance

yup, Phil.  I have been doing that.
I had a friend over here who is an audio producer/engeneer by trade and he can't figure out my performance problem. He is admittedly a Mac proTools user.
I will probably buy a new drive and direct it exclusively for Sonar projects. I was sure that with this system I would have no performance troubles like this. Apparently I should be able to rock 42 tracks with no problems. What do you think?

Stacy, remember that when you alter the settings in your Sound cards control panel to runt the wave profiler again. You need to do that every time you alter a setting like that.

Hi Mike.
Thanks very much for the offer. I will take you up on it. for now, I've been able to change the mms settings in the Firepod control panel up to 6 and then to 12, restarted but unfortunatley I still have the same results of audio stuttering. These audio cracks and pops etc. occur in the project where there is a lott going on as in audio and effects etc. 

Are you available this Sunday at some point?

Thanks
Stacy

Hi there stacy why don't you give me a call and I will definatly help you troubleshoot your firepod. In fact I have had no problems in getting the jaws cursor to navigate the Presonus control panel. -Or if you don't mind, I'll give you a call since I have unlimited account to long distance to skype. ---- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Muir" <ddots@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Phil replied: it means that your latency slider is probably set too low. Try moving the driver setting to 5.8MS.

Hi Phil and all,
I am using the Presonus Firepod. Even with the JAWS cursor the Firepod is completely innaccessible. I know that I've using 44/100 with number of buffers set at 4 (16 is makximum and setting more than 7 results in audio trouble) buffer size is set at 80 to 100% This needs to be set at 12 to 20% for reasonable midi reaction using soft synths.
I have no access to latency settings using either the JAWS or invisible cursors let alone the PC or virtual cursor.
Everything seems to run pretty smoothly until I reach upwards of 24 tracks. Word around the campfire is that with my system I should be getting way better performance than this.
I'll get somebody with a good pair of eyes over here aand see if we can't find the "latency" settings.
I recall that the current driver is sett at 3.1 mms but don't know what that means. 

Many thanks,
and
