I'm running LAP 4.6 and Pulsar II on a Pentium II system (WinME,98Lite, 392 MB Ram). If I'm in Logic everything is fine, but as soon as I switch over to the Pulsar environment and attempt to tweak parameters, Logic loses it with an "ASIO Overload" message. Using 24 bit ASIO drivers, with buffer lengths at maximum.

(At least I get the damn message, Cubase would just blow it to hell and not tell me about it, lol).

Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Sven

First thing is to upgrade to Logic 4.7++

Subhuman's right, with 4.6 i always had this kind of messages. Since 4.7, never had a single one, and i usualy do 4-5 hours sessions with Pulsar+logic.

I actually upgraded yesterday, and am still getting the problem with 4.7.

Any suggestions on the buffer settings?

Thanks,
Sven

Mine is set to default, no tweeking done in logic...

ULLI is at 7ms, 44.1khz

Pulsar is master

How about buffer settings in Logic? I think the Pulsar II is stable on its own. I usually drop down to 25ms latency, because I usually end up with 32 tracks in a project.

Thanks,

That's what i said, logic buffer setting are set to default....

interloper, is it possible that your hard disk (system, not audio) is a bit older? or has at least an access time that is not that fast? for logic it´s best to have a fast hard disk (not in terms of transfer, but in access).
i also had these annoying asio overloads, but after buying my ibm ic035 hd it was gone.

I've got a Quantum Viking II, Ultra II SCSI, 7200 rpm and average seek time between 7.5 and 8.5 ms.

I'm thinking I need to rebuild the system pretty soon.

Thanks anyway.
