This is by far the most lucid discussion of one of the mysterious aspects of home recording.
Insane amount of valuable information in this video. Thank you Richard!
John Judd Music Thanks!
+Richard Ames Music I totally agree. Great stuff, many thanks
I have to agree, great video still on 2019! Thanks Richard!
I feel like I have to pay something to this guy. Freaking awesome video.
Hei Tor
pay attention. He deserves it!
Just stumbled upon this video while troubleshooting some issues after updating to Monterey on M1 Mini, Logic 10.7.4. I am astonished that this video was created in 2015 yet it is absolutely relevant and frankly invaluable in October 2022. As another commenter said, this is a college level education right here. The information provided is essential, yet in all my years I've not once heard this subject matter discussed like this anywhere. Thank you @Richard Ames, your wisdom spans across time.
Wow. I feel like I just had a college course. Killer editing and presentation, totally straightforward....thanks Richard.
I wish my mom explained all this shit to me when was 5. Seriously: Great explanation! Thanks for creating and posting this.
2019, just found this. THANK YOU.
same here, but it's 2021
Wow. This was the ultimate lesson for understanding the everyday-issue on most prosumer audio setups. And I've have searched a lot. Can't thank you enough!
There is an unbelievably huge amount of incredibly useful information here. Seriously, this is a damn GOLD MINE for people running DAWs on workstation-grade machines! Many kudos to you, sir.
Thanks so much Richard. You have opened my eyes! Great presentation on a seldom discussed topic! I look forward to diving in some more of your videos in the very near future..
I’ve been waiting for this thorough, granular, and understandable discussion since I started using a DAW about 7 weeks ago. Thank you!!!
by far the best video explaining this subject. I have been trying to figure this particular bit before building my audio workstation and I've found little to no information on this subject. A few places like soundonsound and scan, all have this video linked to their articles anyway. Thank you for making this.
This is a great video; an easy to understand, lucid presentation. While I did already know some of what was discussed, I did pick up a few new things, along with having a few of my previous “understanding” of certain facets corrected. Well done, Sir. 🙏
I can't thank you enough! This remedies some hardcore frustrations. This is such valuable information that is not touched on nearly enough!
i reeeeeally wish i found this vid 3 weeks ago...so much navigation of bogus info. this was refreshingly concise. bravo. 👏
Came here through Guy Michelmore, and I am simply blown away. After so long of dealing with DAWs and Computers, finally someone explained that topic to me in an easy to follow manner. I have never seen an explanation as good as this one ever. Thanks so much!
This was the best video I've seen in a long time--really helped me understand what's going on with my system. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of this!
I love you so much Richard, you just answered the question that's been on my mind for the past 10 years. And in such an easy to grasp method too! Thank you!
i've been searching for this info and level of detail for ages. thanks man
I sort of had that hunch rambling my curious mind as to best narrow down the facts. Wow, yeah, super great info much needed, thanks!
Incredible.. In 2020, this is by far thee most useful and coherent explanation, on this potentially daunting subject matter Ive seen to date. Many thank you's sir. Impact of this information is otherworldly, and probably saving many people lots of money. Cheers
Omg you just answered something that I’ve been researching for ages! Thank you for teaching me about real time vs non real time. I’ve gone into the realm of testing with “mouse feeling” vs hard data, and it was making me crazy!
Now I understanding why the windows timer tool makes such a huge difference with certain buffer settings in game. One setting allows for real time sound through memory, and the other is non real time through pre loaded data prior to the round starting.
Sorry this is all related to competitive gaming in counterstrike, and sound directly equates with hit registration in that game!
If you ever wanted to get huge(even bigger) on UA-cam... if you jumped into teaching DPC latency reduction, and other informational videos like this, but instead directed at esports, it would be massive! Everything you speak about directly correlates, probably much more than you could imagine. When it comes to competitive games tweaking is the name of the game and there is a huge community of people searching for this information. They are ignorant to the audiophile community and all the work that has been done with latency reduction.
Not even the UA-cam tech community talks about this at all. You are a Gem Sir!
This has probably saved countless musicians, engineers, system integrators for daws save a lot of money and make very wise choices instead, like it did for me. Thank you so much for this. Hats off to the patience and diligent attention to patiently explaining the details required! Cheers!!! 🎉
Richard ! what a great presentation and your ability to convey so much information so fluently on a deep pressing subject for us producers... I have to tip my cap to you. Professionally done.
This was such an amazing revelation for me. I am planning to build a new PC for audio production and I'm happy I have this knowledge now. Thanks Richard!!!
Wow, this is one incredibly valuable discussion! Once upon a time in my career I was a designer of 8 and 16 bit systems, and now this topic makes complete sense to me! Thanks!
Beautifully explained, simple but effective graphic depictions thank you so much Richard.
Awesome, after months finally understand this things happening in DAW's !
Excellent video Richard, cleared up a lot of confusion for me! Information on this particular topic is very hard to come by, it seems, when compared to video editing and gaming. I have been building custom desktop PCs for 15 years now, but never understood why my laptops (and friends' laptops) would not perform well with real time DAW recording/instruments, despite having a well rounded system on paper with i7 CPUs that don't show super high CPU usage. Running latencymon definitely shows issues with real time latency, and now I know why, how, and where to investigate. Probably just saved me a bunch of money in "upgrades." Feel like I just sat in on a legitimate school course on the subject. You are the man!
Richard, this is the best explanation of this I have seen anywhere. I have a highly spec’d laptop that was working great with Cubase for a year and has just started dropping out in the last few months and I have been unable to locate the culprit so far. This video has given me more insight into how I might be able to do so, so thanks so much for making it!
Thank you!
This is finally the explanation I have been looking for, and you explain it extremely well.
You have answered SO many of my questions! Thank you!
Thanks a lot. Never seen anything this good on understandig the problems of real time audio performance. You just took me lightyears ahead of the dark ages I have walked trough. I can't thank you enough. 🙏🙏🙏
That was an incredibly useful video, thanks so much! Also, that shirt is off-the-hook awesome.
This is probably the most informative video I’ve ever seen. Thanks so much!
Listened to 'Abstract Melancholy' from your wesbite, and oh my can you compose. I imagined distorted guitars in place of the strings and you blow a lot of metal compositions out of the water. Excellent as a composer and producer. This is the most informative video i've seen on what to look for in a computer for audio production, thank you so much.
WOW. Thank you very much Richard. It was fantastic!!!! Now I understand what's the problem in my DAW. THANKS AGAIN
That is the most brilliant presentation and wealth of knowledge I've ever seen in a UA-cam video. Thank you! and please keep these professional type of videos coming :--)
Thank you Richard! You have shared something very relevant to music producers of today. Sensible planning coupled with your knowledge can help folks like us spend wisely and have a system that we can count on.
I'm convinced this video is the most helpful & well explained source of information on this topic the internet has to offer. Thanks!
Superb! The clearest explanation I have seen on this topic. The animation helped a lot. Thanks
This is such a well-communicated video about a cloudy subject, thank you for taking the time to make this.
well met
Outstanding Mr Richard ! Thank you for this valuable insight.
Thank you so much Richard, this video was a lifesaver! 💎
Fantastic. Thanks for making and uploading this!
Hi Richard,
I'm an IT guy (well experienced with DAW) and knew all tese things, but I've never seen sombody explaining it a better way you do !!! Very good video!
Very informative video as I am in the throws of upgrading the studio desktop ... thanks
Excellent Richard, a very good explanation of an important group of issues everyone who runs DAWs eventually run into. I'm trying to figure out the exact same problem on a Mac which of course is a little bit more obscure to troubleshoot. Thanks,Carlos
Love it. Sensible information, smooth presentation.
GREAT JOB.
Best video on this subject. Great explanation. Thank you so much. Still relevant in 2021.
WOW this video is exactly what ive been looking for forever thank you so much! still relevant in 2021!
Very nice I have been working with Windows pcs and pro tools for 18 years. I'm glad you made this video to clarify realtime system load. Which many don't understand.
Super useful info here to help understand the confusing world of performance and supposed spec sheets (marketing)… as I try to figure out why it seems my old 2008 iMac runs just as efficient, if not better, than my newest replacement Win 10 desktop with loads more specs.... I think I get it now. Thanks so much Richard! What a great video tutorial and examples! Rock On!
One of the best video's I've seen regarding this topic. Thx Richard!!
Absolutely superb presentation and content!!
Thank for sharing, Richard.
Still relevant info today. Thanks Richard. Now I need a new computer. 😝
Finally - correct & useful explanations in full sentences! Thank you, thank you, thank you
Wow ... awesome doesnt quite say how fantastic this vid is.
6 years ago -- still perfectly explained for nowadays! Thanks a lot! Thumbs up! :-)
Such a great and informative video. Thank you.
Thank you!!! This is the kind of information and knowledge you usually have to pay (and it's not cheap) for.
This is perfect and its 5 years old. GOOD STUFF!! THANK YOU :)
That's what I was hoping to learn going to RECW. 😀 Could've asked but didn't know how to form the question, thank you so so much!
Thank you so much!!! For this video litteraly solved my problems of audio drop outs in cubase after having freshly assembled my new computer (10700k & 64GB RAM on Z490i MEG). And as it turned out, it was the LAN PCIe 2.5G controller that was the culprid. Before this video I spent 3 agonizing days or more thinking it was the CPU's features (like SpeedStep, SpeedShift or Turbo Boost) constantly turning them on or off. Thank you Richard Ames for sharing that crucial knowledge about realtime performance.
One of the best and informative vids on this topics. THANKS !!!!
Excellent video - many thanks for creating and posting.
We need more channels like this and less pensados and tips and tricks of how to use a compressor or eq! Thank you so much!
Excellent! Thanks for posting.
I'm about to buy a new system that I am about to set up strictly for home recording, glad I saw this video first!!!
F**king eh!!! This is one of the most useful, concise and information packed videos I've ever come across....great piece of work!!! And yeh I've just started to investigate the best hardware for a music PC.....whoosh....jobs a goodn ;D
i commend you for the work you’ve put into creating such an informative video. bravo
Amazingly said bro! Thanks for your time!
An excellent explanation.
This might be seven years old now but the principles described are still current.
👍
Well done! This should be required viewing for anyone who runs a DAW.
I just learned so much in this video. Thank you!
Wow. It is rare to have pleasent guy giving actual good information to the point in UA-cam. Subbin
Extremely helpful video. Thank you!!
Thanks Richard. You nailed it!
One of the Best videos on the internet.Thank you Sir !
Thank you for making this video, learnt a lot!
Great Insight! Thank you for this!
Thank you for these extremely valuable pieces of information!
In this regards your videos are the best I've seen in utube. Thank you so much they're really helpful.
Thank you for this info because I can't afford to update anything. I can't wait to get home and start trouble shooting.
This is a great video. I'd love to see one addressing multi-core and threaded CPUs.
Brilliant. Thank you for this immeasurable amount of knowledge.
Hello Richard, it is brilliant clip! I always try talk about the topic to folks at forums using my overly technical language, but you've done just excellent and very understandable clip, which explain that in a great way. Expect some serious linkage :))
Very good explanation, much appreciated! Thanks a lot!
Great video Richard!
Excellent lecture. Thank you, sir!
Thank you so much for this video. I have serched this kind of information aroud a year! And now I know what is a reason of clicks! Thank you thank you thank you!
I cannot thank you enough o have put the time to create this video!
Really great video! Thank you
THANK YOU, thank you, thank you! Following your steps I have discovered that it was the WLAN adapter that was locking up my CPU. I just couldn't understand why my much more powerful machine with twice as much RAM was performing so poorly against my old laptop. Your straightforward approach and explanations really helped. Subscribed.
How did you find out it was the WLAN? How did you fixed it?
I run into trouble with my Kontakt libraries and synths that are part of the Komplete package. I also use East/West, but don't generally have problems with those VIs. From what I've seen in your videos I feel like I am finally equipped to deal with the issues. This video is extremely helpful! I've taken online classes focusing on orchestration, arranging and film scoring, but I wish I had a class that gave me the information this and your other videos have given me beforehand so that I didn't have to deal with my computer so much while I was trying to compose, arrange and orchestrate. This gave me a lot to think about, plenty to investigate. Thank you!!
This was eye opening, thanks!
absolutely great stuff... thanks a lot for making that video
Great video! Really informative and well made.
thank you so much Richard Ames !!!
