Hi all,
it seems that pd is far better at playing multiple audio files from
disk then SC. SC almost always fails when playing over 16 mono files
at once (it starts leaving gaps and irregular clicks and loops occur
after apx 3 minutes). Some sonology students working with our wfs
system found out that pd can play 96 files on it at once easily,
without much cpu use and no problems at all. They tested it
extensively against SC. Could it be an idea to port the pd disk
streaming engine to SC? Btw only the intel machines seem to have
this issue with SC, we didn't have any problems back when we had
G5's running.
cheers,
Wouter
