Long time no write...
I'm so excited: I bought a new computer that is more up to date. Got the machine up and running on Friday.
Specs as follows:
Processor: AMD 64 X2 4600+ 2.4ghz 2x512kb L2
Motherboard: Abit AN52
Memory: 2gb of DDR2 800mhz
Video card: Palit Geforce 8600GT Sonic 256mb
Hard disk: 320gb Western Digital SATA2 HD
Case: Compucase 6C29B
Rest of the stuff is from my old computer (sound card and one of the IDE hard drives)
Performance increase from my old computer is just stunning...
For example, working with Buzz is so much easier now because the VST instruments aren't taking up so much CPU time like before. Currently I have a song in the works with about 14 VSTi's (pretty CPU intensive ones too) and there's no sign of any kind of stuttering yet. CPU usage is at about 60% on the other core (the other one just sits there idling because Buzz isn't multiprocessor aware as far as I know) None of these instruments exceed 10% in cpu usage individually so I think that's pretty damn good.
Well, this probably means that there's going to be a bunch of new songs from me in the next few weeks, my inspiration is at an all time high :D
