EXTREME lag on tp2?

[geminimech]

i don't have money to upgrade this computer, i need another alternative, it's wierd since my desktop (which is windows) and his lower specs compared to this one (about 1gb ram) runs traktor without problems.

Are you running multiple apps while you run Traktor?

upgrade to raspberry pi

An no 2.2c2d won't cut it will still have some problems. I had a p7811fx with 8gb ddr3 and a dedicate GeForce gaming card and it would act weird if I was browsing librbrary with my total control. I upgraded CPU from. P8400 to a t9900 now she screams greAt no matter how many decks or fx or browsing library.

Come on man. Plenty of people around here with p8400/p8700 Penryn's running Traktor with no issues.

Whats your latency? Them specs should run Traktor just fine. No need to update your RAM just to run Traktor better.

I have latency set at 256, and without playing music or anything at all the Load bar is already topping red. what the fuck?

[kooper1980]

whats the latency in "ms" below where it says 256? Also check you haven't got "enable multicore processor support" checked. Its on the same settings screen.

[geminimech]

256 is pretty low man. Run Traktor ONLY and experiment at each latency setting.

While my other computer which specs are:

Pentium Dual core 2.60Ghz 1.50gb ram is running traktor with 4 decks playing all effect units on all decks with atleast 7 effects on and gets the load bar to red, but doesn't actually engage monster lag mode.

[JulianVeloso]

The only thing i have open right now is traktor and this browser, multicore processor support off, the higher i take the latency the less lag i get, but if take it all the way to the max, it doesn't really reduce that much load.

It's load of the audio engine not of the processor itself, so while yes it is important to an extent, as long as you are getting glitch free audio at a particular latency setting then it's not something to kill yourself over trying to get down to running without a blip.
