Surely someone has brought this up, If so, would you mind directing me to the thread? I'm running Tiger on a G4 PowerBook (400mHz), 1 gig ram (maxed), using Live5 with only a minimal number of native Live FX (mainly eq's). However, I have a lot of tracks going and they're all longer than 3 minutes each I'm trying to make OS X as lean as possible (already maxed out my cpu useage to 80% in preferences, any way to completely disengage dashboard?) I don't have any other apps or plug-ins running. I plan on transferring all my sound files to an external to use for my live shows. I'm also using a motu 828mkII via firewire for my main outs. Anything else I can do? and thank you in advance for the info. Fields

Keeping audio on an external drive will help a lot. Make sure you don't have any font utilities running like Suitcase, etc. Same for Virus Protection. Good luck.

Add RAM Put audio files on another hard drive in firewire Be sure to have the BSD maintenance script running regularly. Repair you permissions after each installation. Work on an admin account, a second one on your computer. Install plugins for every users (in ~/library/audio/, not ~/users/username/library/audio) Note that journaling is a safety feature… also some software work better with it on, for example, Digidesign requires journalling now at the opposite of what they did before… Note too that most of this is of value for desktop macs… (yawn) -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home BOING BUMM TSCHAK PENG!
