Hi, me again!
Hmmmmmm my luck wasnt so persistent :(

After a few days of glory problems started again! :cry:

Sys is very unstabile,Nuendo3 goes down 2-3 times in a couple hours,
STS4000 shows "LOW MEMORY" after 3-4 loads of sample programs.
What I notise, without NUENDO switching on, STS working normally
and NO "low memory" after sample program loading (all 16 ch) but
with Nuendo............problems occur!!!!!!!!!!!

Uhhhhh.............I did Active sensing staff and more latency etc,etc............NOTHING :-?

:cry: :cry: :cry:

Can't believe, It seems somebody likes me from the another side :evil:

Did you try to chat w/ Andre?

He seems to always have a powerful rig up and running.

My friend here in Las Vegas has the same DAW as yours and OC's it to hit the " sweet spot."

I have faith in it, but sharing the RAM w/ STS and Nuendo could be trouble.



Good Luck and keep us posted.

just throwing in a massive upgrade to my audio system;

I took my trustworthy daw into a rather risky operation today... Its been unchanged for oh-so-many years, and today i took the plunge:

Its based on a 266 mhz fsb motherboard and i wanted to experiment, so i threw in an XP2800+ 333mhz Barton.

I was a bit shaky as i adjusted the fsb up to 165x2 (330mhz) as my ram also is specced at 266mhz. but for the time being its stable as hell :D

now THATS what i call retro ;)

and for the record the former hunting dog was a xp1800+...

I love AMD, if it wasn't for them, Intel would be killing me with their prices.

I almost went with AMD as I remember their design in the earlier Alpha CPU's.

I like the way you upgrade Piddi. I plan on buying a set up where I can do the same.


Brotha' Man Power Hippo,

How many MB's of samples are you using w/ the STS ?

Does it give you a display of available memory left ?

i did a search for "low memory" on the sts forum and found this thread:
http://www.planetz.com/phpBB2/viewtopic ... low+memory

which suggested this:
"Systemmanagement/system/advance/.../Memory (sorry, some of the items I don't know to translate) from 'Systemcache' to 'Programs'. I have to test which affect this has on other applications"

i would suspect that there is a a program that is eating unused memory....

the phenomenon is called memory leak and usually associated with bad programming style...
well, what else would you expect from that company... ? :P
