How Much ram is everyone using?

How much ram is everyone using in their DAW?

256 works, 512 is better. Over that...well, depends on your specific needs.

 

[BPRecords]

Ooops, I put 256 RAM but I thought you meant on our recording computer, not DAW - sorry!

Are you guys talking DDR ram or PC ram? I am still running PC133 ram. I really need to upgrade to a DDR motherboard.

When talking about "how much RAM", it doesn't matter what kind of physical memory you actually have installed. Whether it's DDR or SDR doesn't matter when you're just talking size.

1 gig, here.

Kinda like shooting a mouse with a cannon.

768

 

[Havoc]

1GB, never have to think about swap etc.

It doesn't matter what you use as long as you get the mouse.

 

[LAZI]

A whopping 384...

A 256 and a 128... My stinking laptop will only take up to 512 so I figured i'd just wait until the 256's are dirt cheap (or free) and just used a 128 my sister was chunkin. Damn I wanted at least 2G's. Why? I honestly don't really even know...

1Gb DDR @ 266MHz.


I hate swapfiles and love to work without them.

[Doug Quance]

Alright... who's the wiseguy with 3 gigs of ram...

Arm rec. & hang on bro......lmao..

 

[dobro]

Yeah, 512 with a fast Pentium 4 processor, and I still get some stuttering on playback in Cool Edit even with the buffers adjusted.

So what's that about? l It ain't about the RAM or the processor.
