Someone explaining to me why Live use 750mb Ram??

Post by radeon » Sun Jan 29, 2006 9:10 am

Here is a photo of activity monitoring. I have 6-7 audio trackings no live fx or instrument no vst. Only reason with drum machine to record drum audio. It workings up to track 5 then I record track six and get the audio drop out stutterring. This happenings one hour after download of latest bug fix update

So even if I dont press start the Live software use 700+mb ram only stand still. Before I photo the screen live was having 980mb ram so it is up and down but always high
This must be the reasoning for most of my problems. Its is not the crashing or little midi bug that is the problems for me. It is very very bad performace. I cannot get a song complete
why does this?

radeo, check to make sure you dont have any unused VSTs sitting in slots in any of your channels.

doesnt matter if the "on" button is off. they still take lots of memory, depending on the instrument.

keep your Taskman open, and watch the total memory indicator. as you delete the VSTis one by one, you will see this value go down

Are your samples loaded into RAM?

NO I dont use any vst instruments and vst fx and audio units only reason with 1 drum machine to record the audio so live only plays 7 tracks of audio and not the samples in the ram. reason uising 29mb ram only. ??
