I'm new in the midi samples recording. I just bought some EWQL samples (Symphonic Orchestra Platinum and Goliath).

I am thinking the problem is my computer, i have a MacBook Pro 13" late '12, Intel core i7, 8gb RAM and 750gb - 5400rpm HD.
If my system requirements is to low for this samples and more, please help me with any recommendations of increasing my HD, my RAM, etc.. before i spend money in something that isn't the problem.

Thank you for you're time and support, regards.
WHY is Nobody reading the Help Us Help You - Read This BEFORE Posting!?

Is there a blatant disregard for this great information or are new (and not so new) members Not seeing that link properly as it is atleast not the first thing I see when arriving here on the forum so maybe, just maybe the Mods needs to rectify this so it doesn't have to be posted by members everytime these questions comes up and they do come up A LOT so .. Just a thought ..

And to Alfredogzz : your computer is NOT compatible with the Hard drive you have and you need atleast one more drive for audio and BOTH needs to be atleast 7200 rpm and seeing that you overlooked this there are probably more things wrong with your setup so please read the post on the link above in this post and do all those optimizations before asking what is wrong with your setup and come back here when you done everything correctly. If it still doesn't work we will take it from there :)
Good Luck and come back soon

Best // Chris
