Don't forget backwards compatible, as well. Sometimes even more important.
Main problem with the Registry, regardless of whether you actually open up RegEdit or not, is that many companies stuff all kinds of stuff in there and don't clean it up afterwards and if it gets corrupted in any way, you are pretty much SOL.
Most people in fact SHOULD NOT ever open RegEdit and touch it.
But if your registry gets messed up...and it can happen...then guess what your only real option is reinstall windows.
I have found OSX to be way way more resilient to those kinds of issues.
Another option is backing up the registry regularly then replacing it if something goes awry
Harmonia is basically unison, multiplies the voices played and you can offset parameters between them. That was in the old one IIRC as well. It's basically stacking voices, so the whole voice is duplicated, and with it, CPU load as well.
That explains it.
anyone who says they have never had a problem with windows in 20 years is lying...haha that's hilarious.
It's probably worth pointing out that there have long been rumors that Apple is preparing to dump Intel. While we're busy projecting what the new Mac Pro tells us about the future, it's possible that the answer is very little.
After all, the first cheese grater was a G5. The next was Intel inside.

Whoa. I didn’t want to be a fire starter over here. My apologies?
I was just curious why some Apple users hate Windows SO MUCH since I kind of love it. My DAWs behave the exact same way on Windows as they do on Macs (which is all I really care) and the latency issues are practically the same on both rigs...so that’s why I was confused. I’ve even heard stories where clients would walk away from studios because windows was used lol. So that’s why my silly curiosity.
Considering your level of experience, mind for detail, and your technical abilities, I imagine you did a great job setting it up in the first place, Mario!That's interesting. I didn't think about my hardware ever since I put my machine together (about 3 years now). Everything "just works" (minus those 3 issues that I had - which were in order: iLok refusing to work at all, which was fixed somehow by Anniversary Update, then my webcam not initializing its driver correctly, which was fixed in Logitech's driver update, and actually, I can't remember the 3rd one, it may have been really something minor)!
I'm reasonably certain that we will be able to update the processor in the future, as long as it's supported by the Mac OS. So we'll have to see if they keep any Intel chips in future machines, because then we'd be able to use them.we don't know that they are doing to "dump" intel. We know they are thinking about making some devices with their own chips. The fact that they have committed to the Xeon's for the new MacPro i think indicates we don't need to worry about them dumping intel completely. Now, whether you'll be able to get a mini or iMac with intel in the future, yet to be seen...
