Title: New DAW
Post by: Sharpola on December 25, 2008, 12:38:17 PM

I recently bought my x-mas present..

A Gateway Core 2 Quad q6600 @ 2.4 with 4 gigs of ram
and my Delta 1010 with beta 64 drivers

I bought it with Vista 64 already installed, I installed the 64 bit version of Sonar but reverted back to 32 when I found out theres no 64 bit version of rewire

Realtime latency is a problem thats frustrated me to no end, I can't get any better than 299 at the present :(
I going to try reverting back to stock Delta 1010 drivers hopefully that will cure it

Other than that... damn!! this machine rocks no matter what plugin I toss in

I had alot of problems with the beta 64 drivers.

I went back to version 5.10.00.5057 and life went back to normal .

Good Luck and Merry Christmas

I was just about to revert back to XP, but I just read that XP dosen't support 4 gigs memory

I wish m-audio would get there finger out of there *#$ and get a 100% working driver, Vista's been out pretty much 2 years now?

If you're having driver problems give this a try.

http://www.asio4all.com/ (http://www.asio4all.com/)

I use it with both my interfaces.

I got the M-Audio fast track Ultra USB interface for my laptop. I recorded 6  tracks at once for 6 minutes without dropout or any pops. I a hoping to use this to track some bands remotely.

I'm using vista ultimate.

It works, but I am not warm and fuzzy yet. Hope the drivers are ok.

I had to yank the asio4all because of conflicts.

Good luck with the new system Ray. That's my next move!

i have a 1010LT and these beta drivers with Sonar 7.
when you install Sonar 7 in windows xp 64bit , you get a warning-sonar is not officially supported on the platform, and i 've not been able to run its Audio engine without some latency be it M audio or some other card.don't know if it supports Vista 64.

I'm back up and running again, I decided to do a dual boot with Vista 64 & Xp 32

running smooth so far :)

So at least I can record while m-audio works on there beta, I'm looking at motu as my next big purchase after work picks up again..

Thanks for the help!

Ray - I had the same decision to make when I built me new computer. 

Mackie doesn't have 64 bit drivers for my audio interface, so I was forced to go 32 bit, as well.

As far as the decision to go XP or Vista, I still went XP even though I have 4GB of ram installed.  XP can see 3.25GB of it, and I have yet to even come close to maxing it out.

Love the MOTU gear personally, they make some awesome stuff and it works well from everything I've ever tried.  Of course I might be biased as I use both MOTU hardware and software for my setup :)
