Hi Diego,

hope you are well in these turbulent times!

I read about this xSlimmer to have performed some interesting stuff with reference to applications such as Cubase, which would strip it from the PPC code in my case and run much more responsive.

Just wondered how common this is around Mac users.

Cubase itself is a bit of a pain in the butt, you can not get low latencies at the moment, but Steinberg claims to work on optimizing code for multicore systems. Until then I am not even bothered updating my current 4 Version.
