It’s very helpful for performing music

I sometimes play live (I don’t enjoy it) using Spectrasonic’s Keyscape, which loads many dozens of gigabytes into RAM. If I have one more “mystery” buffering issue I’m going to tear my hair out

This is on an ultra locked down, high spec dedicated PC

I would be absolutely enthralled if my software/hardware had a consistent schedule like that prioritised by an actual RTOS

It’s why almost all actual musicians use industry standards like Nord for keyboards. While my Keyscape VST sounds much better, I can’t reliably use it in live contexts because the Windows/Mac stacks are just too precarious

I don’t need it to crush numbers, just have the gap between best case and worst case scenario for computation to be effectively zero

Live performance craves near-deterministically performing instruments and tooling
