[QUOTE="Gil Navarro, post: 137998, member: 3775"] Re: Tell me about waves I've done comparisons. I don't have any hard numbers for latency, but Mac wins hands down. I use Waves native multirack for live audio. With a 28 slot waves rack, and using either my soundcraft Expression console via usb or firewire, or one of my M-Audio devices (Lightbridge and 2626) via firewire, a 2009 2.0 duo core mac mini runs at around 47% load. A newer i7 MacBook pro runs at 17% load. My best and newest windows i3 machine (optimized for audio) runs at around 70% load. I can get a lower buffer setting with mac as well, 64 for the mini and 32 for the pro. Windows won't effectively run lower than 190. [/QUOTE]
