Also, MIR since it loads into RAM needs as much as possible, so maxing out there would make sense. I am swinging toward an 8 core 3 GHZ with 1 TB (internal) flash drive for the samples and 64 GB RAM, because that seems to have a balance between speed and multiple processing. If you are editing 4K video, demand everything be done fast, and have multiple displays you need the 12 core. So it becomes a question of how much you need that parallel processing. I was reading in the recent Macworld how the new Mac Pros compared to a loaded Imac and even Macbook Pros are not the fastest on all tasks, but blow everything else away on multiple core tasks. I am trying to figure out a compromise between multiple cores and speed with a slave. (though of course I want it.)įor large orchestras, if you are doing a new performance of Rite of Spring on one computer, you may want a 12 core though. The 12 core is more for extreme video processing and animation rendering, which takes forever unless you have multiple cores.
#4 CORE OR 6 CORE MAC PRO FOR PROTOOLS PRO#
I think that there might be overkill getting the "ultimate" new Mac Pro system for VSL. These three computers run all of VSL very well.
#4 CORE OR 6 CORE MAC PRO FOR PROTOOLS PC#
I recently installed SSDs on three PC slaves and found a huge increase in performance just from that. The great advantages of the new Mac Pro are the "faster-than-SSD" drives, and the multiple cores, as well as Xeon processors.

‘white paper’ available to aid my purchasing choice? Processing or multiple threaded slower processing? Is there a performance

Which would be the most efficient and fastest Theģ.7GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5 with 10MB 元ģ.5GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5 with 12MB 元 cache I am seriously considering purchasing one of the new MacPro systems (blackĬylinder models) purely for VSL but would like some performance advice.

Native and AVID OMNI interface and using my retina macbook pro as my VSL slave. I am currently running a MacPro (2012 model) for ProTools 11HD I intend to expand my VSL library but need some performance advice. The fabulous VSL libraries, currently I am running Dimension strings and solo I am relatively new to VSL but cannot fail to see the advantage ofĮnsemble Pro5 and the ability to use a slave to run all my plugins as well as
