Being that performance is priority for such a grand or any DAW, I’m quite surprised by the lack of interest by SB on this issue.
I’m a artist-producer working (or should I say half-working) on a TOP audio program (3 months & counting) who’s audio engine ISN’T up to par (Cracks, stutters, hiccups, spits & farts)… yet their priority seems to be fixing tweaks instead of N° 1…a flawlessly sound engine!
It doesn’t matter how many tweak improvements you make, if your program’s engine doesn’t play properly! I changed from Pro Tool’s because of this same issue with Avid…and now, guess what?!
Steiny, get your audio (engine, variaudio, etc.) together or you’ll end up going down-hill like Pro Tools (selling stock so low that they’re being kicked off the Nasdaq)
Prioritize please…Audio performance first!
