Roland Cloud Help Please
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I'm sending and SOS out to you kind folks to please lend me some advice before I drain my savings to upgrade my computer in order to run the Roland Cloud.</p> <p>Those of you who have tried it know it sounds gorgeous but that it eats CPU processing power for breakfast. However, I'm not sure how many more tracks I can expect to run if I upgrade my computer.</p> <p>Currently I can only run 3 separate tracks of the Jupiter 8 or Juno 106. If I try to load a 4th then it overloads the CPU and becomes unusable.</p> <p>I run it using Logic on a power mac G5, 6-core 3.33 GHz Xeon Intel, with 12 GB on RAM.</p> <p>Will adding more RAM significantly help me? My computer can hold up to 48 mb. Or do I really need more processing power? And if I upgrade, what amount of processing power should I expect to translate into how many tracks of the Jupiter 8 or Juno 106?</p> <p>I'd really really really appreciate any advice from those who know the cloud and/or those who know computers. I really don't want to drop thousands of dollars only to have bought 2-3 more tracks.</p> <p>Even if you tell me the specs of your machine and tell me how many tracks you can run simultaneously with it that would be super-helpful too. </p> <p>Thanks!</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/ieathairpussy"> /u/ieathairpussy </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/dhzubv/roland_cloud_help_please/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/dhzubv/roland_cloud_help_please/">[comments]</a></span>
