This may be my "slow" area when it comes to computers, but I need some help.
I have 8 gigs of RAM for my G5 Powermac, and I try to run many patches in Logic such as many instruments using EW/QL and the like, but it keeps telling me that memory is getting low and may cause problems such as artifacts, etc. But when I use the activity monitor, Logic is only using 1.92 gigs of RAM and there are still 5.11 gigs free RAM on the whole system! What gives? How can I make sure that Logic has the full power of my loads of RAM? Thanks in advance! Uvee |

My friend, it is maddening. When Leopard is released, do you think it will solve some of the woes that we pre-Intel G5 owners are experiencing? I realize that we still have to wait for Logic to become a 64-bit program, too, but I'm really hoping Leopard will be a step in the right direction. I'm really tired of getting slow disk errors and out-of-memory warnings with a Quad processor and 6.5G RAM. I've said this in other forums, but often I find myself just going back to my 2003 G4 1.33GHz laptop with 2G Ram to do my Logic work. It leaves my shiny 2006 Quad G5 in the dust. I scored a feature-length independent film last year on my laptop because my Quad couldn't keep up. Now, that's strange!
