There's about 4 or so ways to get more audio tracks in PT LE to the point were it's CPU dependent.

...and don't forget, an Instrument track can be used as an Aux track.

(Also solo safe the stereo track before you hide it. I didnt show that in those old vids.)

ok i asked for that one!!! i'm a lazy SOB today!!! shoulda searched before i stared typin'...i know!!!!

ok...on the /3gb switch. the key is DO NOT use the /userva switch to limit the apps. that and make sure you have your paging file set to 1024 for that extra gig of memory (even tho it's virtual). here's a link to the switches available... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/833721

valuable text from link...

/3GB

This switch forces x86-based systems to allocate 3 GB of virtual address space to programs and 1 GB to the kernel and to executive components. A program must be designed to take advantage of the additional memory address space. With this switch, user mode programs can access 3 GB of memory instead of the usual 2 GB that Windows allocates to user mode programs. The switch moves the starting point of kernel memory to 3 GB. Some configurations of Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 and Microsoft Windows Server 2003 may require this switch.

/userva

Use this switch to customize the amount of memory that is allocated to processes when you use the /3GB switch. This switch permits more page table entry (PTE) kernel memory but still maintains almost 3 GB of process memory space.

Note Microsoft Product Support Services strongly recommends using a range of memory for the /USERVA switch that lies within the range of 2900-3030. This range is wide enough to provide a large enough pool of system page table entries for all currently observed issues. Usually a setting of /userva=2900 will provide close to the maximum available number of system page table entries possible.

and as we all know, thanks to you and sunburst, the video cards do come into play.

one more link...http://blogs.technet.com/askperf/arc...fying-3gb.aspx for those that really wanna dig into it!!!

i've got more techie links but i gotta dig 'em up. and i've already proven that my 'search for $.h.i.t' finger is not really participatin' today!!!!

thanks Shane!! you da man!!

EDIT: oh yeah...what's the syntax for applyin' unique names to URLs??? i said i'm lazy today!!!

Just click and drag to highlight any text you want a URL, then click on the Insert Link Icon to type in the URL. A wee bit easier and faster.

one more link...

...and great post!! It will get lost and I'll ask you about this again(along with everyone else) so bookmark it to link to.

Bob you crack me up. I think I now have 4 smacks!! LOL

...or if you prefer.

Your post on the 3G switch was killer...but where's the HD tutorial vid? We need our hands held in here!

Oh... Let's see if others can click on it ok. I've streamlined my video capture down to a fine art for speed. Faster than typing text now.

I hope i dont have to get my own server going.

so...
this gets you 3.0 GB RAM to use in Pro Tools vs the old thread which gives you 2.7?

the initial thread called for usin' the /userva switch which put a limit on the memory to use.

I feel like I'm missing the instructions somewhere.

My Boot.ini looks like this:

[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /noexecute=optin
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional 3GB" /fastdetect /noexecute=optin /3GB

What should it be?
