Tweaking
I wonder how you set up a mac to run as best as possible with protools, logic, and such.. ? I´ve heard of an adjustment to make the cpu use it´s power more to audio, then graphic, but I haven´t found that one yet.. Any help accepted!

And leave everything where the installer puts it - don't play "musical apps" or "musical folders" like some Windows users seem to like to do.

Re: Tweaking
I forgot some stuff:
If you don't leave your computer on 24/7, use MacJanitor. You should also clean caches.Read up on it here: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/repairprocess.html Be aware of this: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/syscachecleaneffects.html And use the cache cleaner all the hip and groovy kids use: http://www.northernsoftworks.com/tigercachecleaner.html Quote:
