You'll run out of DSP on a single Pulsar 2 so fast you won't be able to say "fish"!! So my answer would be NO, you're not making the right choice. P2 simply won't fill the space of all those synths. I'd keep the synths and save for a Luna 2 for starters, and maybe later when you have more ...

Use the drivers in the Win2K folder of the 3.01 driver package. I used WinXP with Pulsar 2 and it was running fine, smoother than on ME or 98 actually, but then I added a Luna 2 and suddenly I could use only one midi in and out port! I heard some other people had this problem too and I got no help f...

Yesterday my 256mb SDRAM chip blew up (started getting page faults & blue screens all the time) so I was left with only 128mb's of RAM on Win XP. I was amazed how smoothly Sonar and Pulsar still ran, it was like there was no difference at all between 128mb and 384mb, although I don't use very lo...

Not in Finland. I've asked the largest component stores in my city and the whole country, and none seem to have the parts. That leaves only one option I guess - order from Digi-key in the US using my Debit card (don't have a credit one coz I'm poor :wink: and get my card frozen when the bank finds o...

Really?

In my experience, XP can handle more audio tracks, more effects, more DXI synths, lower latency, faster redraws in Pulsar while sequencer running, etc...

My system: Duron 800mhz on Abit KT7 (probably worst Socket-A mobo ever) and 380mb ram.

XP was a clean install. I didn't install pulsar during XP install because I first had to download v3. Only had to install Pulsar v3. once for it to work. Later I added Luna 2 and as XP started it recognized it as a Creamware DSP card and automatically found a driver for it (Pulsar v3. W2k driver). I...

I'd wait for NForce and get an AMD XP. That combo should rock - specwise, so it would be smart to wait until someone tests it first ofcourse (Subhuman) :smile:

AFAIK. all you need for running any other CW card with Pulsar is the Pulsar driver. My system (XP) recognized my new Luna as a Creamware DSP card and I didn't need any other drivers. The Pulsar software still recognizes all physical Luna connections and can use Luna devices in my projects. Toni L. h...

No, adding ram will not increase PCI capacity, but it will greatly increase overall performance.

This is a very long shot and probably doesn't help but anyway, if these settings can be found in your Bios: - enable PCI master read caching - set PCI Arbitration mechanism to PCI (opposed to CPU or normal or whatever) These two tweaks made the most difference with my setup (Abit kt7).

Actually I find it pretty hard to clip Pulsar's A/D convertors in normal use. Even if the meters in Pulsar mixer are going way past clipping, it doesn't sound like that. They seem to have almost analog-like headroom.. anyone notice this too or am I imagining?
