download latencymon and see which driver is causing latency. after you eliminate that driver and get better results you will be able to run more instances of diva.

 

Latency is not the issue, Diva demands pure cpu power.

 

piggybacking off of that
http://www.velocitymicro.com/blog/xeon-vs-i7i5-whats-difference/
based on these considerations
my opinion, is optimize your new system and go with reaper.

 

lower latency demands more cpu. he needs lower latency, thats why he's using lower buffer. if he can achieve with 128 buffer what he archieves now with 64 buffer, that means lower stress on cpu = more diva instances ;)

 

Thanks i appreciate that

His issue is the cpu, period. Check his original post and comparison to his older yet faster cpu which also ran better with cubase.

the xeon is devastating to the i5
but you have to consider the way a software is coded to take use of instructions and cpu optimizations
because of reaper benefits in the workstation areas , I believe go with reaper or any other daw that can utilize what makes the xeon tick.

 

Aren't you a ray of sunshine...
And to answer your question. Nope. No trolling here. Low trolling treshold perhaps?
If you had read, you would know i spent only 2000$ for a machine worth 6000$ onto DELL catalog.
I used ASIO4ALL only to prove a point. Not to use it on a daily basis... I have a Steinberg UR22 mk2 for that matter
And with the help of secretworld and others guys, i was able to get more juice from it than my old PC so no more weaker CPU thanks to them.
On a more constructive side (i mean despite your blunt approach) i note that a very fast I7 is the best bet for Cubase.
Thanks for pointing me to your signature. It's useful.
See you

 

It's not a ivy bridge V2 but a Haswell V3...but i catch your drift thanks

 

Already have thanks. ASIO4ALL is just for testing purpose.

 

yeah i know, that was closest one i could bring up but you already know what i mean related to the comment haha
basically if you have a daw that coded to take advantage of the xeon it will be a monster


update lol


https://www.game-debate.com/cpu/ind...mpare=xeon-e5-2680-v3-vs-core-i5-4670s-3-1ghz

it is a heavyweight vs a featherweight basically haha

ex the cpu cache difference and on and on

here is vs mine (i7-6700k)
https://www.game-debate.com/cpu/index.php?pid=2320&pid2=2169&compare=Intel Core i7-6700K 4-Core 4.0GHz-vs-Intel Xeon E5-2680 v3

I guess im the featherweight damn!

what a BIG L3 you have!
you rocking M.2 up in this bitch also?

Minus tweaks, the biggest thing you actually done was increase buffering on your RAM which will probably cost you instances due to you using a Xeon and using ECC RAM. Other than that, clock speed will also make a big difference here.

 

Cubase is causing the issue. He proved it via reaper.

 

It is Xeon I read are killer.

 

Not true I have an I7 Cubase 8.0 ran like crap on mine. I moved to reaper. Reaper is really coded very well. I am not trying to take over the world with Reaper it's just to some, a better option for a DAW.
Mine is a 4790 k. I can load the same project into reaper and the PC is just running Idle.

 

But can it run crysis?

 

Why should he? Reaper is only $60 to purchase and if it solves his issue and he like's reaper. No matter what I did Cubase still ran like crap on my PC.

 

I'm glad Reaper may be the solution for you, it certainly was for me. After a love/hate relationship with Pro Tools and one too many 9xxx errors, I permanently moved to Reaper and could not be more pleased. More customizable features than I could imagine. Many great DAWS on the market but Reaper solved many of my problems. BTW, with ARA2 support just around the corner, the best may have yet to come.

 

Check this link to get an idea of what is being used for custom music production/mixing computers.
PCAudioLabs

 

Done a very quick and not thorough test late last night on my home computer.

36 instances of Diva each with Lexicon PCM inserted on each of them.
Each instance was playing 7th Chords

Windows 10
2011 MB
i7 3930K 6 Core
64 GB Ram
Cubase 9.5


Only the BIOS has been changed the rest of Windows is default. (Except for USB Power management is Turned Off)
No Network Cards

@yabiss Will be away for a week or so will be interested when i come back to see how it all works out for you.

Best of luck. Cheers
