I figured that was the case, just wanted to make sure before dishing out the money. Also, appreciate the suggestion! I'll start looking.

Hey, thanks for the replies guys. Didn't know that about laptops since 2013... good to know! Yes, I was looking at an i7 MB Pro. The projects giving me grief... I'm recording audio, running 3rd party VI's. But even after I bounce out all the VI's to audio, still giving me trouble. I delete all unused audio, make sure I'm not overloading with unneccessary plugins, and I use an external drive for sample libraries. I used to use an external drive for projects too, but went back to running them off of my computer's SSD.

Greetings. I've recently been hit with a project that is a little bit more involved than anything I've done before. My computer really can't seem to handle it. Well, in general, my computer can't really handle that much. It does run better, since I replaced my optical drive with an SSD and upgraded my ram. But its still not quite making the grade. I've read a pretty good amount on how to speed up logic over the years, and am careful to work in a way that won't bog down my CPU more than it needs to. I wanted to get your guys' take on this situation, before I decide to buy a new laptop. My Questions: Is it possible that having alternative projects is slowing down my CPU? I'm thinking about getting a used MB pro from 2014-2015, which would be a 5-6 year upgrade from my mid 2009. Do you think this would make a difference if I placed my 8GB ram and SSD into the new computer? For one thing, I at least could upgrade from OS X Yosemite if I got a newer computer. I'm not sure if that would make a difference in how Logic runs, though. Any counsel would be supreme!

Hello, I'm currently working with a project that has a couple of tempo shifts. My midi was quantized. I changed the tempo for the second half of the song, by SMPTE locking everything, shifting the tempo, and then unlocking SMPTE. I did this a couple more times, trying to find the right tempo... and I think I might have made a misstep. Everything is playing in place perfectly, but when I open up the piano roll, the midi notes are not aligned on the grid. I checked the bars/beats division, to make sure I didn't switch to /24 or something, but that wasn't it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks guys. I remembered creating the instrument as multi-output, but apparently I didn't. Somehow, it didn't dawn on me to double-check. Appreciate your help.

When bouncing, "Include Multi-Instrument Outputs" selection is greyed out. Can't figure this out for the life of me. Doesn't seem to be anyone else having this problem. I'm scared the answer is painfully obvious. Any answers would be greatly appreciated.
