Sound Canvas AU plugin issues!

Post by mxabeles »

Hi There,
I was so happy to see Roland released sound canvas. Those retro sounds really get my blood pumping :). But, its performance on my Mac OS X.12 with Digital Performer (I tried all version of DP from 8 until 9.5) makes my blood boil!

If I use sound canvas as a virtual instrument by itself, things are okay. I got a crash once, but only once. Now if I try and load another virtual instrument (say FM8, MOTU sampler etc) then playback becomes so slow and erratic its unlistenable. This is strictly midi playback, and the polyphony is very low on the Sound Canvas.

Worst thing is that once this takes place, there is NO reversing the damage to playback on the file. Whether I delete all virtual instrument tracks, quit and relaunch DP, or restart computer, the file is forever screwed.

Any suggestions or similar experiences with DP and Sound Canvas?

Thank you!
