  4. logic and ensemble networked to external computers takes forever to load even when decoupled

    I have logic 9 and latest vsl ensemble networked to 2 slave computers with 8 instances of Vienna interfaces in logic all with decouple activated so that I my template is always loaded on the slaves and always the same . I have hardly anything other than altiverb in logic and  the idea is that it should save me load times between projects but when I load a new cue/song in logic it takes forever to load the vienna interfaces (about 5 minutes) Is that normal and if so it's a major flaw and is there a workaround. 

    Could it be a problem with my network ? I am using a netgear hub which seems to work fine , all 3 computers have fixed ips and are 1000Gigabit speed and masses of ram etc...

    Try closing  the project, load an empty Logic project, close that and then load the new one. Does it make a difference?

    BTW I hope you're using a switch not a hub.....

    Thanks, but that doesn't seem to make a difference and yes it is a switch (netgearGS605 ) 1000msec all lights green.

    I have also noticed if I try and disconnect from the slave and reconnect I get a spinning ball with my slave that is on a pc and not on the slave that is on a macpro which suggests there is something wrong with the communication between the pc and my host computer .(an IMAC 2.8 Quad 16gb ram)

    Any thoughts?

    Looking into a thread here I changed the static ip on all computers to 169.254.1.x (1 2 and 3 ) from what I had which was 192.168.3.x

    and it has improved a lot , although I still get a spinning wheel when connecting to the pc but only for a second or two now. 

    Any ideas on what might still be stopping it being instant like the mac connection?
