My kit is pretty doggone big: 5 toms, 2 snares, kick drum, hi-hat and 9 cymbals. And you can bet your right trigger finger that I’ll be using sounds for every single one of them. I might have to use two instances of SD2.3, that’s where the worry about processor and RAM performance comes in.

I see the RME Babyface mentioned quite a lot, any idea if the PCIe RME card will outperform it?

Also, how well does SD2.3 work with Windows touch screen capabilities? Thanks.

Thanks, Damian.

How much space will I need for Superior Drummer 2.3 + one expansion kit, maybe two? I’m thinking at least 20GB per install, so, 60GB should be sufficient, correct? A full Windows install is only about 20GB, so, perhaps a 128GB drive will be adequate enough?

Also, about latency, wouldn’t overclocking the CPU only help out that much more? Is there a point of diminishing returns?

Yes, I have thought about using the TD-30 alone, however, wouldn’t connecting it via USB slow things down, because the PC will have to offload the MIDI signal conversion to the raw hardware and not something specialized to do so, such as a high-end PCIe sound card?

Thanks.
