Hi.

 

Someone told me that non-UB applications are not stable and might stop running sometimes.

 

I have just installed Logic Pro 7.1, and I want to compose music with it.

 

So I want to ask anyone who have used it whether it is stable enough to compose with it.

 

Thank.

 

P.S: English is not my native language. Please forgive me if I have made any mistake.

I'm running Logic Pro 7.2 (original with XS-Key) on an AMD Athlon 64 4000+. While it looks as if it runs stable when not tasking the system too much, it always gives a Kernel Panic when doing some SERIOUS work with it. Meaning, 3/4 system load for a longer period of time kills it. It even Kernel Panics the AMD system when running Logic on my PowerBook and only running Logic Node on the AMD. I've tried to troubleshoot this for a week now but can't find a solution. In other words, I start wondering if the other guys who reported that Logic 7.2 works fine on AMD may just not drive the system to the edge, but just checked if basic functionality is there. Hmm...

However, while testing the performance, I was able to load about 130(!) Stereo Delays and didn't max the CPU load... it just goes down after a while. So... not even sure if Logic 7.2 works REALLY stable on AMD hardware.

 

Wondering it it's the AMD instruction set that could cause some floating point errors over time that freaks the system out. I even tinkered with the Memory timing after I ran out of the usual options, but couldn't get it to run more stable.

 

Logic, stable - not sure...

I tryied some versions from osx + logic and the best was Jas 10.4.8 with Logic pro 7.2 and/or Logic 8.

 

I tryed logic with leo4allv3 + patches, but I allways have crash, with 7.2 and 8 too.

 

Actually I have ac97 and I need only a little trick, becouse my sound in osx not stable. (osx swith on-off my sound...:S ;)

 

So the trick: I need to run iTunes and then make a party shuffle list and play something. Set the volume to zero. (this hold sound always on) and then start the logic.

 

and no problem, everything work fine with JAS10.4.8+all patch (ac97, logic 7.2/8, digital performer6)

 

my config:

JAS 10.4.8

amd athlon 64+ (no see3)

Asus Nforce3 chipset

nvidia 6600GT full QE/CI

Ac97 audio

M-audio Delta 66 (no drivers...)

 

Sorry my english
