MOTU Symphonic Instrument

[2infamouz]

This VST is the shit imo but i cant use it barely...For the sound to not get latency i have to put my sample rate way up to where i cant play w/ any midi device. Ive never had any problem on FL since i got my new computer until now. Not sure how i can use a million plugins without latency but this one eats up resources like pacman :\ Ne suggestions?

I own that plugin, it sucks balls!

 

[2infamouz]

awesome.

dp just hates good ish! Everybody sleeps on the M.ark O.f T.he U.nicorn. Even if their customer service sucks, so what! Their products are SICK! muhahahaha

@Ayr0n - I don't think there's much more you can do in that case. Maybe record it as a single track recording and then go back and add everything to it so it's not actually using the plugin?!?!?

 

[thedreampolice]

No, that plugin sounds like shit, there are so many other great orchestra plugins. and BTW I own EVERY MOTU software product.

 

[2infamouz]

motu has some better ones then im guessin? Idk if i tweak the instruments they sound pretty good, the only other orchestra plugin i have is East West QL symphonic orchestra gold :\

lol yea thats what ive been doin, makin loops n just choppin em up n throwin em in my beats.. Ive always been a composer more than a sampler tho so it kinda throws me off..

Doesnt FL have a freeze track function?

@dp - and you haven't put bpm in the dropbox? *with my best Donald Trump voice* "You're Fired!"

@Ayr0n - Wow, I've seen some programs that eat up resources but never like that, especially with the amount that we have these days. idk

EDIT @dp, yeah Fl 9 does but I don't know what Ayr0n is working with. On top of that, if he records it first, FL 9 will run it from his hard drive instead of using it from his RAM.

FL Studio can freeze individual tracks from Track Based Playlist using the F button. You can move the patterns, delete them or add new audio effects because the patterns are freezed individually (with their time based track effects too (not the mixer effects), but you cannot see their tails)
But you cannot add midi effects, or delete/change any effects, or change the patterns, because the Playlist Effects are freezed too.

Freezed tracks are in blue.

My bpm requires ilok so it would do you no good. But now with maschine I will never use bpm again

 

[dacalion]

Ayr0n, Once you recorded only your track using the motu vst and you've put it back in your Pattern, open your Channel Settings Window and make sure you turn on the Keep on disk option.

If you're already doing that or it doesn't work, I don't know what to tell you. but good luck!

if i draw a pattern out n record it in edison i can jus thro it in fl as a sample or audio clip or w.e, but id like to b able to record live not use my mouse, n then have to go thru samplin my own shit lol . just 2 much hassle 4 me...its w.e tho i got enough plugins i jus like the sounds on this 1 a lot.

the thing that doesnt make sense is im runnin on 8 gb's of ram, 2.8 dual core proc, with a decent audio interface... Nothing else gives me latency problems besides this plugin

Maybe a reinstall?

That's a lot of RAM for it to be running like shit...are you using a 64bit system?

 

[paradigmshifter]

what version of FL are you using? what audio drivers are you using? (ASIO or DX), what audio interface are you using? are you running the extended memory version of FL or the regular one? what operating system and is it x86 (32bit) or x64 (64bit)... also, on the audio options for FL studio, what sample rate (44100 or 48000 Hz) and interpolation setting do you have?
There are some plugins that have issues with the FL wrapper default settings, try going to the wrapper setting (little gear icon on the top left), in the Processing tab check the 'process inactive inputs and outputs'... here some info from the FL studio help file:
Plugins behaving badly?
This section contains information to help bring wayward plugins back into line. Symptoms include issues like pops or crackling sounds but your underrun count isn't increasing (if it is click here). Plugins that play or render out of time with the timeline. CPU spikes, FL Studio lockups, crashes or rendering failures. There are three main places you can try making changes to settings and options to resolve issues with misbehaving plugins, they are:

Options and Settings
Open the Audio Settings and try the following:
CPU options - 'Multithreaded generator processing' (try off), 'Multithreaded mixer processing' (try off) & 'Align tick lengths' (try on/off).
NOTE: If the Audio settings 'Multithreaded processing' options appear to be the cause of problems, isolate the plugin/s that are behaving badly then permanently disable it for the plugin/s at fault. Do this by deselecting the Wrapper Additional Settings Menu 'Allow threaded processing' switch and saving the wrapper state. The options set will be remembered for that particular plugin next time it is opened, allowing you to turn the Audio settings multithreaded processing options back on (if desired).

Mixer options - 'Reset plugins on transport' (try turning off, if start/stop and moving around the Playlist is glitchy/slow).
ASIO4ALL - If you are using ASIO4ALL and getting crackling/glitches and the underrun count isn't increasing, check the Troubleshooting section of the ASIO4ALL settings.
The plugin wrapper 'Processing' tab. Try these settings to fix problems with spiking CPU load, crashes, no sound, rendering quality, loop-playback behavior and rendering sync (timing issues). Start with 'Use fixed size buffers' then try the other options if that is not successful.
The plugin wrapper 'Settings' tab. Try these settings to fix problems with MIDI, automation, GUI & patch-changing.
NOTE: It's also worth checking the FL Studio knowledge base section for more information as the data-base is updated with plugin specific information from time to time. Finally, if it's a 3rd party plugin and it's not working correctly in FL Studio, contact the developer, it's all care (that's why we offer so many options) and no responsibility here
