Lucas. You are literally my SQ guru🙏.
J am learning so much from your videos. Thank you for all your effort. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Thank you, buddy. Do you have any requests for future videos?

[@Roberorozco2003]

Thanks for the information. Question: have you had any dropouts, interruptions in the signal while recording?
I know one of the reasons people use an external interface for smaart is to avoid overloading the disk on the computer, you are recording and using plugins too in the same laptop right? Since you’re technically running three applications at the same time that requires real time data transfer! What’s the processor in your laptop if you don’t mind? Thank you!

Hi, I use a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14ITL05 (11th Gen i5-1135G7 @2.40GHz, 8 GB RAM, 64 Bit Win11). So far no problems or dropouts. I don't use any plugins on the laptop, just Smaart and recording. Next time I use the setup live I will take a look at the performance, but as I said, no problems ever. Hope thhat helps

Hi - are you using SMAART for rta/spl and recording multitrack to the same laptop during a show? What DAW are you using to record multitrack? Thank you.

[@lukasschrauber]

Hi, yes I am using the same laptop for multi track to Waves Tracks and I/o for Smaart. And now there is a Dante controller as well.
