Keni Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I've been having a much easier time with my virtual instruments. This release seems to be allowing a lot more resources for their operation. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Wynn Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 WHOA ! Only had a chance last night to take it for a quick spin but literally EVERYTHING seems snappier somehow. Looking SO forward to really putting it thru its paces this weekend. is it just me or does feel like a huge update ? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Morgon-Shaw Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I have tested it and can confirm it has halved the number of late buffers on a heavy project at 256 Asio buffer Vs CbB 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FJ Lamela Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 A host of workflow improvements, improved cpu utilization all running smoothly smooth as silk. The oversampling and sidechain options (among others) are a great improvement. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Stanton Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 running great. the only "glitch" i had was the time cursor did not show as reset to the beginning although it started playing, and when i moved the screen to the left (to see the beginning) the time cursor was doing what is should. only happened once while jumping around manually setting it at various spots in the song. so it was more of a screen refresh than an execution problem.

Alper Karamahmutoglu Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 It can be said that the latest version (Sonar 2024.08 release) is more effective and runs smoothly than the older versions and CbB. and it has many UI improvements as well. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackson white Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 the engine optimization looks to be significant, especially in combination with the upcoming release of some next gen cpus. waiting for the smoke to clear wrt claims vs real world performance, reports of some Win 11 'weirdness' and confirmed m/b support, but looks like time for a new rocket ship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Simon Fletcher Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 This is a fantastic release! Huge boost in performance and plugin upscaling controls are super useful Great work as always team! Much appreciated 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starship Krupa Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 The advances in plug-in options (resource use monitoring, oversampling) are a welcome surprise. I can't speak to the improved engine efficiency as CbB was already doing fine in that regard on my systems. Glad to see the developers continuing to optimize performance. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gustabo Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 The performance improvements are incredible! CPU Performance feedback on fx are much welcomed! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Arwood Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 (edited) Only one problem. Crash on start. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kShlExz3zbzWefDmsPqpjLX7oUX64buh/view?usp=sharing I don't know if it would help - 6+more dmp files. Folder Access https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HmoCx1L3nYHovGQp_jqK6BxU4TQGoeW7?usp=sharing Thanks, Max Edited August 16 by Max Arwood Added more=Folder Access 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoo Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 I never run at buffer sizes <256 (just because I don't need to so may as well save CPU cycles!) but gave 128 and 64 a whirl with the new release and...well, it works. Much better than previous versions: if I needed to, I could now run a hefty project (plug-ins and synths) with input monitoring on TH-U at a 64 buffer size if I need to, without dropouts or glitches - I've never been able to do that before.

Panu Pentikäinen Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Low Latency Performance: After 18 working hours with the latest build and optimizations, I'm seeing improvements. I used RME buffer settings of 64 and 256. Despite unintentionally setting the buffer to 64, I was able to work with over 100 plugins and 50+ tracks without any glitches. Seems like the new version runs smoother and feels snappier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
