Proof of concept
I recorded this short jam test using real 4-channel acoustic drums, my electric bass, and a couple of tracks of my electric guitars for some audio tracks.
Then I put an instance of Guitar Rig on my rhythm guitar and another instance of it on the bass, to load the system up a bit, and to put a bit more grunge on them. Then I added Kontakt and tracks for orchestral strings, orchestral brass, Hammond organ, and piano for some virtual instruments. Here's the link to the test project, and you can see all the plugins used, performance, and latency in the screen captures which I grabbed, and uploaded at the same time as typing this post and having REAPER in the background playing the song in repeat mode. The hardware is a 2.66Ghz i5 from 2009 and a couple M-Audio 2496 cards from 1998. Here's the audio: https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13772744 Last edited by Glennbo; 08-25-2018 at 10:07 AM. |

If you right click on the performance monitor and enable the rest of the meters it will give quite a lot of interesting info. rt cpu, xruns, rt longest block, etc. Helps trouble shooting, and know how well the system is performing and how close to the cliff edge you are. CPU use is only part of the story
Nice looking dark theme, which one is it?

I'll be adding that to the linux documentation thread I'm working on. BTW, you ought to check that every once in a while. As I locked it, it looks like you already read it but I'll be adding stuff to it.
Didn't you write an introduction to linux audio? It might be useful to link if I could find it again

Nice work Glennbo! I just read through your other thread. Lots of really good info in there as a result of your efforts, Jack, and osxmidi lending some linux wisdom.

I'm more than stoked with the results, because I had planned to only run REAPER in Linux for basic tasks, and boot to the Win7 side for anything more complex. Looks like I can hang here in Linux more than I originally thought. |

The theme I use is LCS Mod Short Dark. It's my favorite of all the themes I've tried. |

Gonna have a look at that theme, but each time I try to change from my current theme I feel that things aren't right no matter how much I liked the screenshots
