Hi,
I am attempting to record 2 tracks live with DP4 on a 12" G4 powerbook and am getting a "disk too slow" error. I own a MOTU 828 mkII, but prefer to keep it in the studio and record with the built in audio for live purposes. I use a Rode NT4 stereo condenser mic with built in power and plug directly into the mac. I have adjusted the buffer settings to 1024 and still it gives me the error after recording for awhile. I have a total of 768 megs of RAM and feel this should suffice for 2 track live recording. I play in a jam band and hope to record continually for up to 3 hours, stopping from time to time to save of course. Do i need an external firewire drive? If so, do i install DP4 on it or keep it on the internal drive. Any help would greatly be apprectiated! |

JGebauer, the internal drives are much slower than an external 7200rpm firewire, standard drives are 4800rpm with 2Mb cache.
All the DAWs I own suggest a seperate audio-only hard drive. (Logic, DP4, SX2)  Also check your energy saver setting, make sure you set it for best cpu performance and don't let your drives go to sleep. Ce message a été modifié par gdoubleyou - mar. 27 juil. 2004, 18:51. -------------------- G-Dub
