NEMO.BOFH Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Can someone fingerpoint what is going on? I mean, in the taskmanager its telling me im using about 20% of my CPU and in cubase performance monitor its 80%?! Is that some BUG in Cubase?

Mike A Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 i get that sometimes rebooting helps is cubase set to use your dualcore or HT or whatever it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im good at computers, but im totally new to this dualcore thing. Its an AMD 64x2 3800. I have 2 gig of Ram in it now, because the 3rd stick was not dual core and it wassnt 128bit Rebooting didnt do anything actually. However when I set the priority in taskman to Realtime, it went down a LITTLE bit.... I know on a MAC you can chose how much of the CPU you want to use for each application, shame you cant do the same on a PC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buffersize is fine... Ill check in Cubase later on tonight! Thanks a lot for the hints! Nemo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEMO.BOFH Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 From the Getting started manual on page 55 (DOH I FEEL STUDID). The Expert settings. On the VST Audiobay page you will find a button called “Expert…”. This opens a dialog with advanced settings for the VST Engine, including a Multi Processing switch. When this is activated (default setting if you have a hyper-threading or multiple-CPU system – in a single-CPU system, this option is greyed out) and there is more than one CPU in your system, the processing load is distributed evenly to all available CPUs, allowing Cubase SX/SL to make full use of the combined power of the multiple processors. See the Online Help for details. Activating the “Lower Latency” option will basically disable the CPU overload protection, but allow for lower latencies. See the Online Help for details.

Mike A Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 so that was your problem? (55 pages on a getting started manual lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone knows how to assign CPU on OS X I would REALLY like to know about it -A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike A Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 in windows you can assign which cpu you want the program to run on affinity in task manager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEMO.BOFH Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 in windows you can assign which cpu you want the program to run on affinity in task manager 556399[/snapback] In Taskmanager ive set it to high prio, and in cubase now to use both processors. WELL, it was already set to that, but for some reason I had to take it OFF, and then restart cubase and then ON, and then restart cubase again. Now its showing me exactly what its showing in taskman. Where in taskman do you set that option you are talking about? I cant find anything else than which prio hehe EDIT: NEVER F... mind I got it ahhaha Ive had a beer already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
