MPC Ren - Audio popping, slowig down...

Using the Ren for 2 weeks now.
Fought through all the "smaller" problems so far, but now this...

When a project on the Ren gets quite complex ( more than 30 sequences, lots of FX etc. ) the software starts to slow down... Audio popping, ugly noises... Actually you can't work with it any longer.
( Windows 7 64bit, Core i5, 8GB Ram )

A lot of users seem to have these problems ( reading community.akai.pro ), but the most shocking to me is that Akai really doesn't have an answer.

Has anyone here experienced similar shit and found a solution...?

I really love to work with the MPC but this endless list of problems just doesn't stop. And this is a big one, it simply makes the product unusable.

Hello Maschine!

Are you being for real?

When a project on the Ren gets quite complex ( more than 30 sequences, lots of FX etc. )

Your running an i5.processor... how much peformance do you think you should be getting out of a mid range cpu?

It might be time you think about upgrading your processor if your dealing with complex projects like this

I have a Maschine as well as an MPC Ren. and i can assure you, you will run into the same problems once youve maxed out your cpu like that, on either of them.
Maschine cant save you here im afraid.

Try raising your buffer size. You'll get latency, but you'll miss the pops. Just try keeping the buffer size as low as possible without artifacts on the audio. Easy.

damn..good thing my projects arent that big...i got an i3 and i thought that was good

This is funny!

what is?

hellfire produces music on a custom built ibm super computer with petabytes of ram and 500 processor cores so he's laughing at us mortals

ahh..
there is no such thing as a petabyte..i think

and you can only use up to 8 gig of ram anyways.

unless you run servers. you can run more.

That he's expecting an i5 to be able to handle all of what he's throwing at it, and that he thinks Maschine will help!

64 bit applications can typically use as much ram as your motherboard can support. It's 32 bit apps that have a limit, and that limit is actually just under 4GB.
