  • Slow Loading Times......

    Hello,

    I am running Giga studio (2.5) on windows xp with a 2.4 processor and 1 Gig of Ram. I am currently re-loading a performance I created last week and so far it has taken 20 mins and is still about half way! Admitidly I have used all my memory in this performance but am I really expected to wait this long to recall something? When I was origionally programming I noticed the more Instruments I loaded the longer it took. Am I doing something wrong, or are there any suggestions to speed my system up........ Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Moderator,

    isn't this something for teh GigaStudio topic? What if someone is searching only the GigaStudio topic for answers to questions and this thread is not searched.

  • Agreed, this should be in the Giga forum if we should try to be politically correct here! Not that I personally care, but I have to say I admire your endless attempts of moderating the forum Evan btw! [:)]

    On topic, Phil(?), you're not doing something wrong, the problem is the combination of GigaStudio and Windows 2000/XP. There might be somewhat of a solution in the works though... Stay tuned for a day or two.

  • Thanks Mattias. I don't want to keep popping in with these "moderator" comments, but I eman there are only 5 topics here in the forum. It relaly shouldn't be that hard for people to post to the correct forum so that the board is more organized, ergo, more functional.

  • Thank you Mattias for your response, I shall keep my eyes peeled!

  • Mattias,

    I was very interested in your comment about a possible fix for this problem. It hasbeen a huge problem with giastudio 2.x and Win2000/XP. Are you taolking about a possible fix from VSL concerning long load times or from Tascam?

    Thanks,
    Mike

  • astro, this could be a fix coded and realized by mattias with some input based on observations from herb and myself - unfortunately i didn't find the time to test it extensively, but it looks _very_ promising
    time to say thanks for mattias' effort anyway

    and remember: only a CRAY can run an endless loop in just three seconds.
  • I'm just now loading AFL_stac-1 into Gigastudio running 200XP. It's taking ages. Can anyone clarify if this a Gigastudio/2000XP problem, a disk problem, or something to do with my hard disk?

  • It's a GigaStudio/2000XP problem. Especially the stac-patches are affected for some reason beyond my knowledge. I'll post more info along with the fix Christian was talking about later today. I just have to try one thing first...

  • Mattias - now you mention it, the long load times do occur on stacc sounds. Bass trombone and Tuba took about 5 minutes each! Could it be a Pro Edition bug? I don't remember having such a problem with First Edition sounds such as string staccatos.

  • WOW! I guess I am so accustomed to the inconsistencies and idiosyncrasies that are the very fabric of Gigastudio that I never noticed that it is indeed the VSL short note instruments that hang up the worst. Very interesting. I hope there is a fix for this, it wastes a lot of valuable time!

    Keep us posted please!

    Thanks,
    Mike

    ps - i tried to open the tenor trombone stacc patch while reading this thread and writing this reply; it is still not opened! [:)]

  • Mike...

    In case you haven't noticed, goto http://235.deatech.at/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1594 for the fix.
