Re: Sample sound clip from my notebook computer system

awesome, yeah i downloaded a bunch of those plugs tonight. i really like  a large majority of what i found on that site.
would love to hear some of your songs.
 
KH: Sure. I have tons of free live and studio MP3s for download here: http://www.krispenhartung.com/mp3.htm
 
did you modify your setting on your thinkpad? i ended up following some instructions someone posted about optimization in the past.
seems to do the trick.
 
KH: I made some minor modifications, probably some of the same ones you found on the web, and I have a program and makes some changes to msconfig that keep a few things from running in the background and in the system tray. However, I've found that the ThinkPad T60p is so damn efficient that I can run it with no modifications and my VST looping/effect system runs seemlessly. I can't even get the thing to get to 50% processor utilization, and I have 2gig of RAM that is probably barely utilized as well. It's nice to have that sort of memory/processing headroom.
 
i  never use the fingerprint reader as it makes me very paranoid!
ha!
 
KH: I love it... you can setup it up so that you can over-ride it with the standard password entry. Being able to swip my finger over the reader to login is is ver convenient...anything to avoid typing.
 
spending money online is always a weird thing. especially on plugins as you never touch the cash or actually touch the device you just paid for. i sound like i am 85.
 
KH:  I got over that fairly quick. Now I am probably way too liberal in my internet purchases. I'll buy stuff from just about any online retailer...yikes!  haven't been burned yet though. I won't buy guitars over the internet though...I have to play them first.

yeehaw!

Addiction:  I just calculated that I've spent approximatley $1600 on VST
effects in the last year and a half. What the.....???  Have I been blacking
out and using my Visa card?  I lost track of that. But I believe I'd have to
spend $6000  at least on hardware effects to match what I can do with my
notebook system.
