2 serums and my cpu gives up on life

[@NOSTRSS]

Mylesjmill 2 serums? i make a pad in sylenth and my cpu is crying

[@ziggydeath9397]

I don't understand why some producers will use DAWs on laptops if they are not also DJs. The computer is the most important part of the setup, so it should be maxed out, and be a desktop. I opted for a 8-core 4.4Ghz i7 computer with water-cooling and lots of ram and redundant storage and I have never pushed the CPU past 40% even with many tracks and plugins. (One time I routed the MIDI keyboard back into itself and this caused an infinite loop of MIDI, and that was the only time my CPUs peaked past 40%.) Typically for a project with 12 tracks with lots of plugins, I get between 3% and 8% load.

[@mitjalubej6743]

Congratulations, gold star!

[@Haterfox2]

Ziggy Death a proper setup is totally the goal. At the moment I'm a broke ass college student, but I don't let that stop me. I've scrounged together a decent i7 laptop, some Chinese af monitors, audio interface, and a shitty microphone from guitar center to make my shitty little bedroom studio. Yes I should probably just save my time and money and get the proper equipment.... but i crave producing.

[@ziggydeath9397]

I like to hear that, "I crave producing". The only people that really made it out of all of my friends who were into music and bands were the ones that had the most desire. It didn't matter how much they sucked or what little gear they had, they practiced a lot and breathed music and actually made it. They have toured with big bands, met their idols, etc and are still doing it. Others, whose hearts were not really in it, faded out. It was a necessity for me to upgrade. I had a nice gaming laptop, but Neutron on two tracks was enough to get it to have audio cut outs and clicks/pops.

[@philthy.basement]

Little tip for your Buses. Name your Buses in the setting, add your favorite reverb & chorus and save as a template. It will make your life so much better. Hope this helps 👍🏾

[@reni3]

Seeing your studio at this chapter of your life to present-day 2020 is so inspiring! Thanks for always making content that is inspiring+helpful

[@TwistedEAO]

Great Video, pretty informative, you seem like a chill guy! Much success to you and thanks for making vids among producing and DJ'ing !

[@nookers]

very helpful. even knew some of the things you mentioned but haven't gotten around to it, but you reminded me. and taugh me new things... thanks!!

[@djsmithers99]

I completely sympathise. This was my biggest pet peeve when projects neared completion so I saved up and bought a beast of a machine and it's so liberating to produce without caring about plugin count nor what plugin I use. I now reach for my favourites without a second thought. It's gotten me closer to making better music. One downside to upgrading is the cost vs benefit and it's not that great.

[@femboyhooterssouschef]

Ayy looking forward to the next vlog then! Nice tips too :)

[@buckymoonstar1171]

bro i like you!!!! idk you have a great vibe and you made me feel good! thank you !! :)

[@scroez]

Thanks for this video Jon, perfect timing. I was just Looking at buying a new iMac or Laptop today...( though I wouldn't really move my Laptop/not only that I'm not sure what model is best atm.).. on Paypal or their bank finance. But Not sure if getting in debt is wise, atm I'm saving still... Could putting LPX on an external SSD, speed it up, I have a 5400 RPM HDD with this iMac? Was originally bought for art, but I got LPX, & my artwork is still done on canvas. ..Anyway thanks for this video. Just what I needed.

[@UpliftedProductions]

When you said, "That's how you make a living as a music producer" after reading the amount on the letter, I fell out laughing my ass off! Not laughing directly at you, but I've received those kinds of checks from SESAC and Harry Fox Agency in the past so I know how that feels. It made me crack up when you made that face though! LMAO!

[@UpliftedProductions]

That equals 1 U.S. penny! Lol. That's mad funny Jon!

[@babyfeavel71]

OHH JON!!!!! U SAVED MY CPU! THX VERY VERY VERY MUCH

[@v1o]

What is the name of your laptop cooling pad and where did you buy it?

[@FranciscBaculea]

Hi John! Wich rate of sampling did you use?

[@mnv_music]

Awesome tips!

[@higgsbason2657]

Hi, I was thinking get to the point but I thought you put stuff across in a entertaining way, so good video.. I’ve heard you can run ether plugins or samples or tracks from a second hard drive and this takes the pressure off your CPU because it’s not looking for everything from the same drive. Have you ever tried that, I was going to but had trouble getting my Daw to find things in different places, why does everything have to be so complicated. If only there was someone somewhere saying this is how it’s done.

[@patrick5301]

Und was, wenn man die Latenz verlängert und neu kalibriert?

[@signsofthetimes886]

What type of cooling pad is that one? I need to get one!

[@bobbymengel7054]

Jon sine... like the wave... kowabunga

[@SuperSaiyanScandinavian]

it may be pricey, but the ultimate way to avoid this issue is to get a UAD apollo. then you don't have to use nearly as many plugins running on your computer if any. plus you get top notch plugins that really cant be beat at the moment.

[@dukeneukem4747]

how to run abelton off of an external HD?

[@RiversideProductionz]

Eq analyser and diva always take the most CPU out of my system. I think another tip would be to choose your sounds wisely. Don't have too many synths or effects which you don't need

[@nathanhowie2987]

thankyou. I got a lot out of this.

[@aviationlover1441]

jon can u do a livestream of u mixing or sound designing?

[@djnickmills]

Your the Best!

[@EricTorres713]

Hi Jon, I'd love a tutorial video series of making one of your tracks all the way through. I've seen a few channels tackle this. Maybe another possibility to collect $$? Just an idea!

[@rasiknair1886]

hey Jon, what do u think about Reveal Sounds Spire!?

[@abhinavs7452]

It’s an awesome synth bro

[@JimmyWestra]

multi core - leave 1 core for your computer function - the rest devote together to app, 8 core 1 to computer process and 7 to app processing

[@shantanu6834]

Or You can also upgrade your RAM, and only use your computer SDD for necessary stuff only, keep your samples and stuff like on a HDD. Hope it helps!

[@dukeneukem4747]

@@shantanu6834 how to run abelton off of an external HD?

[@shantanu6834]

@@dukeneukem4747Sorry man, I don't know much about abelton. I don't use it. Usally i run any DAW on SSD as it has better read and write speeds than HDD.

[@dukeneukem4747]

Shantanu much appreciation though . 🤙🏾

[@eliaskazais9102]

Can you freeze a track with sidechain in logic? In ableton it's not possible.

[@Jonsine]

+Elias Kazais don't know never tried it but I thing if you use a sidechain plugin like lfo tool it should work

[@Basstool]

Also can be helpful if you clean up all the dust inside your computer with compressed gas cleaner, and put new thermal paste between the heatsink and the CPU/GPU. You can easily find step by step repair guides how to do it, or I guess you can find a notebook service around your neighborhood who can make it for you.

[@Jonsine]

+10BEL MUSIC will try it out just need to find someone I would just destroy the mac

[@JahmilBlair]

That royalty check is better than nothing .. how do you even get that?

[@drydessert4198]

Einige Sounds kannst Du auch mit Massive oder Sylenth machen.

[@UpliftedProductions]

Maybe you have an old laptop or desktop laying around that can run your software keyboards, and you can run them back into your main DAW. That'll save your CPU from being taxed and give you some flexibility. If not, get yourself a Mac mini and run them on that. Get your sweetheart to get it for you.

[@gutenman7112]

My Diva sometines reach on 170% cpu load . Wtf !

[@cvader7]

Nice on Jon...Wish I could sub you x2

Why do you use Pc

[@adb2u]

What are the specs on your computer?

[@Jonsine]

+Mega Mind Late 2013 retina MacBook fully specs

[@neverloseyourself7480]

Hence I will alway use built in VST plugins.

[@denisjm]

Sample rate doesn't work

[@cd78]

There is also another hack many folks aren't aware of, you can use the renice command to increase CPU priority to logic using the command line interface.

[@williamshaneblyth]

C D more info please

[@williamfoster4883]

Quantum computers :) !

[@anthinea4495]

Buy another old computer and use it with FX-teleport or Vienna 6. No problem with Mac and PC. Some plugs on computer number1 and others on computer 2.

[@Bcell13]

You need a desktop :D

[@Jonsine]

+Stephen B yeah that would be nice but I also need a mobile machine
