ReaPower, test your rig
I think it could be nice for people to see, how different setups perform.
So i made this little test file. Just Put it in you Bradsuck folder. It will use one of the soundfiles from this one.
I uses ReaFir, stillwells MajorTom and EvenHorizon.
Just click on the track, ctrl-c, ctrl-v to add tracks.
The track amount is where the play is stable and thereīs no clicks, so though you can add more, they donīt count if you get clicks.
EDIT: Use the Taskmanagerīs cpu ussage.
Hereīs my results:
Reaper ver 1.14
@64 25 trks max cpu 68% Running reaper with realtime priority
@64 8 trks max cpu 6% Running reaper with normal priority
@128 33 trks max cpu 81%
@1024 37 trks max cpu 96%
Machine specs is:
Cpu: Intel Core2 duo 6700
MotherBoard: Intel Rogercity DG965RY
Ram: 2x512mb 667MHz
Graphic: ATI radeon X1300
Soundcard: RME hdsp, digiface.
Procces: TC Powercore
On my laptop i get:
Reaper ver 1.14
@1024 11 trks max cpu 97%
Machine spec is:
Hp pavilion zv5000
Athlon64 3400+
1 gig ram
ASIO4ALL using internal sound.
-----------------------------------
If everyone could post like:
Results:
reaper ver (this is because reaper prob change over time)
@64 tracks max cpu (Take it from the taskmanager ussage.)
@128 tracks max cpu
@1024 tracks max cpu
Machine specs.
------------------------------
Iīve chosen 64,128 and 1024 as the most interesting specs. Because lot of things happen between 64 and 128 regarding optimizing the machine. And 1024 is a good average mixing latency.
Be aware that to gain good results @64, your machine needs to be optimized well.
I know this is not a scientific test, but itīs nice for comparing and for people that wanīt a new machine.
