Pretty much, yeah.
I recently had to upgrade my 800mhz cause it couldn't run my Reason tracks any more.

Well, depending on what you have installed and what operating system you have, there can be stuff running in the background that can be killed to free up a bit of processor speed.

I'm starting to have the same problem in Reason with my old 650 mhz machine. One of the demo songs that comes with it I can't even play because of my computer speed. Kinda funny.

The only thing running in the background is the multilanguage support for East Asian languages and I use Win98. I would close the multilanguage support, but windows keeps restarting the bloody thing even after several ctrl+alt+del's

if u can cough up 100 quid or 200 euros or something like that

then u can get a 1.6 ghz amd athlon with new mobo and shit like me

except mine runs at 1.3ghz as my mobo dont like it at 1.6...pos

but if u really want to lower cpu useage

in the wave options in fruity, set ur output rate to 22050hz instead of 44100hz, it makes a large difference

dont use power synths that soak up ur cpu, like virus, z3ta+, absynth etc

make use of the 3xosc, u can make very phat sounds out of that if u use it correctly with FX etc

dont use too much of the fruity reeverb, thats usually known for its cpu munching...

thats all i have to say...

i writed a song.

Plug ins and effects eat CPU power. Like in pro tools... the more plug in effects and processors you have the more CPU.. i hear that the more tracks you have deals with like hard drive shit, imn not sure
