Default Re: Anyone able to record with BFD All and HW buffers of 128?

I record BFD All at 128 all the time - even on sessions with other tracks and plug-ins. There are features in BFD that can alleviate some of the strain. You can set the number of samples loaded as well as load them to RAM or not. I usually use 64 samples but don't load to RAM. The midi gets recorded to the track and I usually don't get buffer errors. It's important to note that under these conditions, I am NOT using the separate outs from BFD to record each instrument to its own track. I always do that later at a higher buffer. I'm simply recording midi to the BFD instrument track with the BFD drums sounding through the instrument track. I use an AMD dual core with 2MB ram.
