I just recently acquired a G4 400mhz w/384 RAM. I have purchased a USB/MIDI Interface and installed Reason 1.0. When I run reason's demo, it uses about 40% of the CPU Power according to REASON's CPU MONITOR. I always ran a stress test by opening a bunch of demos to see how far I could go and after about 7 windows, it threw an error.
I bought this G4 thinking that it would run a lot cleaner and smoother than windows. Is there something I am not doing right or configuring correctly? I am using this machine only for audio and nothing else. I have turned off just about everything I am not using in Extension Manager. The only thing I want to do is run AUDIO SOFTWARE/MIDI CONTROLLER/FIREWIRE SOUNDCARD/FIREWIRE HD/EXTERNAL CD BURNER. What is the best way to configure this Ti? -Mike |

1) I am running the full version of Reason for $250 bones. It is not the new 2.0.
2) I am not at my mac to tell you what folder I have installed in, but if you give me till tonite I will be able to. I let it install in the default I guess. 3) OS 9.2. I have no idea what extensions should be turned off or on. I just started turning off things that I thought I would needed. That might be the problem. 4) Vitual Memory is turned off. Reason asked me to turn it off for some reason. 5) To be honest, I don't think the MAC is tweaked to what it needs to be at. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP>>>>>>>>> If you need anything else, please let me know. -Mike |
