optimizing wavelab for 24 bit
« on: September 17, 2003, 10:27:08 AM »
what settings are people using to record wavelab at 24bit (i'll be doing 24/96, but 24/48 should applly).  

In the preferences dialog, what are the buffers set at?  cache?

i set it to 24bit temp files, is this correct?

in the record dialog, i chose auto-split and then set it to 1800MB, good?

also, in windows, i've set one setting to optimize windows for background processes as opposed to programs, is this correct?  there is another setting underneath that, which i can't remember the choice, what should that be set to?

any suggestions appreciated and i think this would be a candidate for the archive.

you got it all right damon, you could increase you file size on the auto split up to 1999, but 1800 is fine too.  I just used the default buffer setting and cache.  i don't know if this is "the best" settting, but, i can say that i recorded around 100 or so hours with no problems.

NO, you want it optimized for programs!

the setting below that is for page files...you can leave that at default

Wavelab and all sound recording apps are programs, not background processes. recording is NOT a background process.

what Windows is referring to with regards to "background processes" is internal services like Messenger, rundll, IIS, etc...

i understand that wavelab itself is a program, but is the recording of music through the pcmcia card using various drivers a background process?  i've seen numerous posts from people who have set their laptop up for taping for background processes over apps.  not trying to be difficult, just trying to figure this out.

thanks for all the info +t

BACKGROUND PROCESSES! I know it sounds bass-ackwards but it is the correct setting.
