Script Special Settings for SAC-SAW Start

[Carl G.]

One of my son (a computer programmer who worked for Continuum.IO) just wrote me a nice custom script to start SAC/SAWStudio with custom Windows 10 settings optimum for SAW/SAC and which then, upon exit, returns my system to other settings optimum for other (video) production software I often use.
Now it's nice to have a 'multi-purpose' machine instantly - automatically, at peak performance for SAW/SAC, also for VideoProduction, as well as everyday use. If anyone is interested in the script, let me know. I'll happily pass it (or the idea along).

That sounds great, Carl. I've been wondering if the same thing could be achieved with different Windows Logins.

Carl - that would be REALLY helpful - thanks.

Cheers mako

I would like to be able to do that also. Please post or send.

I'd like it also, please.

Not exactly. Because Power management is system wide, I believe.

In our senario, we are making the system power management plan we want for SawStudio, and the one we want for the rest of the machine to operate under. Rather than changing profiles (accounts) we are automatically switching power management Plans just for when SS starts up... and then it automatically switches back upon exit. Plus a few other things

Just a followup to all... we have been occupied with family vacation activities - and will post something soon.

This is a very good idea! Looking forward to this....

Sounds like a perfect fit for SS users! I'm looking forward to it.
Thanks to you and your talented family!

Ah, I wasn't sure about Power Management. I have a separate power plan for Audio, but not having to choose it manually would be nice. I was thinking that other things like background programs and settings Bob recommends, but might be less than ideal for office-type functions, could be toggled through Logins. But I haven't tried it yet. Still haven't recorded any jobs on the laptop, but at some point the 5-year-old studio tower will get flaky.
