Download Tritone Digital's Phasetone. It's free and will solve your Trilogy boominess problems. Phasetone works by phase cancelling a selected freqency range with variable depth and bandwidth. Very effective. Trilogy's mud tends to be between 50 an 70hz. My only gripe with Trilogy is that the finger...

In "Configure Audio Hardware", set you buffer to 1024 and Host Buffer Multiplier to 4 to get a 4096 sample buffer. It doesn't matter if you don't have other interfaces connected. Perhaps this will give you more overhead.

I have the Keyboard Gold Bundle and it works great. The Steinberg key is required because KGB uses an OEM Halion player dedicated to the Scarbee instruments. It works great as an Audio Unit plug, though I prefer to run it as a standalone rewire slave because I can give it a lot more buffer/pre-load ...

I got the Scarbee KBG (Keyboard Gold Bundle) and it's about as good as electric piano gets on a computer. It uses an OEM version of the HALion Player and I'm getting incredible performance with DP 4.61 as an AU plug, but prefer to run it as a Rewire slave. But I should explain my computer rig, becau...

On my G5 2.5 w/8 gig ram I got the following improvements: Available memory - huge increase. The OS now sees all 8 gig of ram, where in Panther it only saw 4 gig. I can load over 3 gigs of samples into Mach Five and it loads literally twice as fast. The Virtual Memory cap for DP is still 3.5 gig, bu...

Whenever I close a DP file, delete a plugin or virtual synth, DP doesn't release the majority of the memory for other use. It just sits there, wasted. In order to get all available memory back I have to quit and relaunch the program. I have 8gig of ram so lack of ram can't be the issue. I learned of...

I noticed these posts deal primarily with problems related to external MIDI connections, but what of soft-synths? I run a G5 2.5 w/8gig of ram, usually loaded about as much as DP will take before crashing (about 3.2gig virtual memory) with orchestral samples in Mach Five, Atmophere, Trilogy, Stylus ...

I also have G5/2.5 w/8gig of ram and Mach FIve. I can tell you for certain that Firewire, 800 or 400, is completely inadequate for streaming samples. I use external SATA drives - WD Raptors that spin at 10k for streaming and it works very well. You can get PCI cards for external SATA use from Firmte...

If you want MachFive to see sounds on another drive or partition, make an alias of the sound folder on the other drive and drop it into the MachFive Sounds Folder. Make sure the sounds are in MachFive format or it won't work.

I have 2 Raptors in a G5 dual 2.5 w/8 gig of ram. One is my boot drive and the other is for sample streaming. The performance difference is huge. I can stream over 300 simultaneous Mach 5 voices using the Raptor, where I couldn't come anywhere near that with the stock Seagate 7200 RPM SATA or using ...
