Hi
I am running SAWStudio on my fairly new and theoretically whizzy i7 computer under Win7 Pro 64 bit. It has 16GB RAM. I'm running into memory issues with the BFD2 and BFD3 drum programs. I'm using the 32 bit VST versions of these as the 64 bit don't seem to work with SAW. I'm running out of memory loading drum kits with both - I've got round this by reducing the detail on the kits velocity layers, enabling 16 bit mode and reducing the RAM buffer etc. but I don't remember having to do anything like this on my venerable old Core 2 duo. If I look under task manager there is tons of spare memory available but I do understand SAW can't access all of this.
I can load much larger kits with the 64 bit standalone versions and they are real memory hogs!
Is there anything obvious I can do to increase or maximise the memory available to SAW and the VSTs? I've done the usual Win7 tweaks.
Thanks
Jonathan
