heLLo,

Been using logic for several years now on G4, and powerbook, and now I'm also using an iMac G5(2Go ram).

My question is:

How come that in the little CPU window in logic the audio level, sometimes, is nearly full, whereas I'm only using about 800Mo Ram and I still have 1200Mo Ram available (shown by MenuMeters)??

This happens of course when I'm using lots of plugs/audioTracks/etc..which I understand. But why is it not taking full advantage of the 2Go of ram?

Used: LogicPro 6.4.

Thx in advance,

FreAk*

Thx Citypigeon,

But Im a bit surprised, cause the project Im running on the iMacG5, is the one I could run on a PowerBook Ti G4 with only 512Mo ram. On the powerbook, I was way in the limit, but on the iMac, although I did had some plugs, the level is nearly the same that the one on the pb!
There's no way that moving to a G5 with 2Go cant even make A difference from a PB Ti 1Ghz with only 512Mo ram!

If I reach the limit of the cpu usage while using only 800/2000Mo Ram, whats the point having 2GoRam??
