Default Re: tweaking a PowerPC G5 & virtual drums

Thanks for the post!

The ol' G5 is not a good machine for VIs, but until I can afford a better machine, I have to make do. My needs aren't complex, so I'm hoping there are some simplified VI drum products that don't put a lot of demands on the CPU. As the G5 was around for a long time, I am hoping there are former G5 users who have found a VI drum product that worked with it and PTLE.

Perhaps there are other drum VIs more suited?
