Wanted: Sync Plate BNC

Post by songsofpraise »

Hello

I realise this is incredibly rare item but I'm looking for a world clock sync plate to potentially improve stability.

I'm using 3 pulsar II cards in a windows 10 machine fo a future Gigabyte D3 mobo build: ITE Pci-e - PCI bridge chip I beleive)

Currently on ASUS h310 Prime 2.0 mobo with Asmedia chips for the PCI bridging which is hit and miss sequencing via Ableton.

Cheers

You´re not alone,- I want one too.
It´s extremely hard to find,- and who owns one in his running PCI card system doesn´t think about getting rid of it.

i doubt that this can be fixed via bnc wordclock. it sounds like something is eating important cpu cycles.

Ableton is well known to have core parking issues, it's used by many laptop users and so was built to be energy conscious.

This means it will swamp cpu cores quickly under all by the heaviest load, and the result should be familiar to most experienced Scope users. The good news is that just setting a power profile in windows is enough to mitigate this for non-Scope users, the other news is that you may still have to tame core parking for Scope (depending on the BIOS and firmware and how your system performs in actual testing/use).
