  • Steinway & sons

    Hallo,

    I´ve upgraded from special edition Vol1 to synchron-ized SE Vol 1.

    Now I tried to play the steinway piano light, but for many times, my cores where overloaded, so I cannot play

    undisturbed. My technical sytem is: Win 10, Intel i7 2600K, 4x3.4 GHz, 8 MB RAM

    Isn´t that  enough for this light piano ?

  • Hi, 

    Which drive are you streaming from?  A fast HDD drive should be fine (7200 rpm), but of course SSD drives are better.

    You can adjust the preload size in Synchron Pianos Preferences => Database, which should provide you with a better streaming performance.

  • Thank you, Paul,

    I´´ve got a SSD for the operating system and a HDD for the programs.

    May be, the HDD is too slowly for this ?


  • Hi, 

    What does your Readout in Preferences => Database show? You can increase that value manually. 

    Another option is to move your sample content to your SSD drive and reassign it in this Database window (using the +/- signs)...

  • Hallo Paul,

    the database shows 3072. Is that enough ? How high can I get ?

    And how can I move the samples . Just "copy & paste "  in a ssd folder and then reassign ?

    That´s all ?

  • Hi,

    the required preload size depends on your system. I use a preload size of 4096 for all Synchronized instruments (and the Steinway Lite) and 16384 for the Synchron Pianos. This way I can use very low interface buffer sizes without drop-outs.

    Yes, you can just copy and paste the sample-data. Make sure the SSD is not formatted with FAT and also add the new paths in the settings of the Synchron Player.

    Best, Ben
