By The Way, 2bSolo. What computer system are you using? Can you give some details about what it is.
Example; I open the Control Panel and click on System. It shows me these details.
Intel Core i5-3230M CPU
2.60Ghz
8.00 GB Ram
64-bit
Etc...
I'm trying to stay on your original topic. The computer system you are using might have a bearing on what programs you can or can not use.
I'm thinking maybe you get crashes because your system might not be adequate or something. Not enough RAM. Or, maybe you have some software conflicts going on. Or, maybe a virus or something. If this is the problem then you might get similar issues with any DAW you change to. I'd hate to see you go through a change to a different DAW just to have more issues.
I know I used to have issues until I removed/uninstalled iTunes. It was a few years ago and I don't remember exactly what it was but it was something frustrating right after I installed iTunes so I figured that was the problem. It took me a few weeks to finally trace my steps back to when the trouble began. I deleted iTunes, restarted and all was back to normal. Maybe you have something like that going on.
So, tell us what you are working with there.
Also, I noticed someone mention the difference between 32 and 64 bit. A 64 bit machine will run either 64 or 32 bit programs and plug ins. And, a 64 bit DAW program on a 64 bit machine will run 64 bit and 32 bit plug ins. It will run both. But, a 32 bit machine won't run a 64 bit program. A 32 bit program won't run 64 bit plug ins regardless if it is on a 64 bit machine. If you are trying to run 64 bit plug ins on a 32 bit version of RB it's not going to work. jBridge is suppose to remedy this in most cases but I imagine a big plug in like SampleTank might struggle once you start loading its channels with instrument samples.
Anyhow, I commend your patience as the PG forum congress attempts to settle their differences.


Does the noise in your head bother me ?
