just curious... what are you running to come to this conclusion? on my lappy (i7 machine with 8 gb of ram) i could run a endless amount of synths i.e.
reaktor,
omnisphere, massive,
absynth, fm8 but not so heavy usage of large sample libraries... i.e. abbey roads drums with scrabee basses, electri6ty... on my vista machine (desktop i7 machine with 8 gb of ram) i am able to run pretty much anything i throw at it... on my window 7 machine about 3 months old (desktop i7 machine with 16 gb of ram) i never even think about cpu usage with
ableton live 9...
i am just wondering what you are running to have to freeze tracks... i use less
intense vsts on my lappy but never froze a track... on my desktops i could never remember freezing a track...
i wrote this song on my lappy using using just sampletank and live 8 32-bit (nothing much just showing a friend you do not have to spend a lot money to make music)... cpu was only at 6%... i know
Sampletank is your go to vst just do not understand the cpu issues in Live...
