Are your audio files on your startup drive?
I seem to recall from the manual when I was setting up my system that Digidesign said that you should always record to a SCSI drive (which is why I plunked down a LOT of money for the fastest card and drive). The reason that was given was that using a drive that was connected differently would cause a slight delay in the start of record or playback, causing problems if you were trying to punch record or something instantaneous like that. Since in loop playback the computer has to go back and read the same small piece of the audio file over and over, maybe there is a small delay in the computer accessing the audio file on the drive and playing it back. Given the slower speed of your machine, maybe when you tax the CPU more by adding the plugins it's hesitating a bit between loops. Just a guess. But quite an explanation, though, huh? |
