Yesterday in rehearsal I've got some performance improvements on Windows 10 by changing some UEFI settings. For those who are interested: https://www.forum.rme-audio.de/viewtopic.php?pid=137573#p137573 @ khz Sorry but I think I won't give Linux another try in the next months. The main reasons are: -...

@ Musicteacher @nuri: Which desktop environment did you use for your experiments? First I tried KXStudio (the distro, not only the repos), that is KDE4 desktop environment. Then I tried AVLinux (XFCE) and I ended up with a stock Xubuntu (XFCE) coupled with a Liquorix RT kernel. In the case of nuri, ...

@ Musicteacher The problem with standalone jack-apps is, that the jack-graph gets really huge. Ok, but it should only be a problem the first time you set everything up. After that, you can load a preset config and you're done. Maximum would be 3 guitarix-instances Sadly we cannot use guitarix on Wi...

@ merlyn: thanks for your program but I have recently removed Linux from my DAW-Workstation because of a fresh installation of Win10. Furthermore, some instructions to compile it would be very useful for users like me at "noob" level :oops: . @ Musicteacher Glitch free with a 64 samples b...

@raboof Too bad we did not succeed in 'beating' Win10 in this case, but good that we are at least 'on par' Yes it's a bit disappointing! I get the best results with a "stock" Xubuntu 18.04 and the Liquorix RT-Kernel. All music distros I've tested (AV and KX) were garbage on my system. I p...

Ok... I give up again with Linux since I get the same results with Win10. On both systems, I can run glitch free with a 128 samples buffer size. At 32 and 64 samples I get (a lot of) clicks and pops on both Win10 and Linux. Nothing has improved, no matter what I'm tuning in the OS's or in the UEFI-B...

I'm using Ubuntu since 2008 and I never got any problem with "apt autoremove". Never mind... It seems that Xubuntu 18.04 does the job. @JamesPeters: Why are you choosing to monitor through Reaper instead of monitoring through your hardware? Read my 2 or 3 first posts in this thread (yeah, ...

Results of the tests of last Sunday. ONLY WINDOWS 10 FOR THE MOMENT!!! Hardware check: I connected the RayDAT in a small 1x PCIe slot (before it was in a large 16x PCIe slot). --> no noticeable improvement One of the two Behringer ADA8200 was wrong set as sync master (there is a small hardware switc...

:D Thank you all for your interest in my project! I think I will use a new strategy. Beginning from zero! At the moment, my problem is that I don't really know how to set the buffer size so that all members of the band say "it's ok to play with this setting, I can't notice latency". So, wh...

To clarify what I wanted to say: AV Linux is not garbage! But if you're not a Linux power user capable of playing with grub and recovering systems, don't try to dual boot AV Linux with another Linux distro. That's all! I'm a big fan of AV Linux but some things are really specific and it's better you...

@ lilith look at one of my past post on this thread. I've attached the Reaper project used for tests. About 50 plugins are involved, all Reaper's built-ins. I'm not interested in recording. No track will be recorded! I'm interested in playing live with DAW computing of effects, automation, volume, p...

Yesterday was Wednesday! We did some real tests with real audio, real speakers, rear rehearsal... Yesterday, only with Windows 10 . At 32 samples, there was a lot of pops, clicks and glitches... while Reaper reports 0 xruns :x . At 64 samples, there was still pops, clicks and glitches. Not so much, ...

@Michael Willis I come figuratively from France but I leave in Germany for 15 years now. So... English speaking is literally not my first skill :P @JamesPeters Before I made the tests I really had searched for the best Linux distro. My conclusion was AVLinux and KXStudio are the best for me. I teste...

I'm a bit disappointed about Linux :cry: I've made absolutely no tweaks in KXStudio. I use it as "vanilla" as possible. I've only configured Cadence. In Windows 10, I've only disabled some GUI effects and some services related to firewall, anti-virus, update... I've disabled systems sounds...

Hi again :) Ok, here are the results of the first tests! I have not already tested the system with the whole band. I've only made some "dry runs" : - building the RME HDSPe RayDAT in the workstation - installing Windows 10 and KXStudio (dual boot) - configuring Windows audio and Cadence (j...
