How to get the most out of your system performance (CPU/RAM etc.) with Studio One

[Lukas]

I would like to recommend this article to anyone interested in how system components, tweaks, and your song setup can impact performance and which role CPU, RAM and cores play on your system.

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

You can also get some benefit from stopping unnecessary Windows services and background apps. I've created a script for this and it really helps when I need to do a lot of input-monitored tracks.

And would you be kind enough to share it ?

Much knowledge granted from this article, thanks Lukas.
I would like to add my 2 cents. I put the Performance monitor on, and here is what I noticed about CPU consumption, without even playing the song :
- may I have one VI track readied for record (just readied, not doing any recording), it varies between 40 to 50 (why does it vary while nothing happens, I don’t know).
- may I un-ready this track, consumption drops to half, around 20.
- may I deactivate the track, consumption drops again to half, around 12.
