ersh Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 First off... please no "just get a mac" comments. I know.Trying out a new computer for live music use... I normally run NI Kontakt live... and at home I use that along with Cubase 5.1 and a bunch of random VST synths. Kontakt is really the only cpu hog out of all of them... So. Upgrading to windows 7 64-bit from my old 32-bit Dell XP has been a nightmare. Most of my Kontakt samples are UNUSABLE... completely overloading my cpu. My Cubase files play like my cat is dancing on a turntable.I'm hoping someone might have some insight in windows 7 DAW use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaggyBalls Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I always thought you could run 32bit processes in x64.Oh well, computer's gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hartamophone Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 My Cubase files play like my cat is dancing on a turntable.Sounds like someone broke into your house and replaced your Cubase files with mp3s of Coventry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
