Topic: The ACPI.sys latency problem
I have an Asus Zenbook UX310UQK-FC396T. It is a nice lightweight device with 16GB RAM, a 500GB SSD C: drive and a 1TB HDD E: drive. I use this for location recording of classical concerts with 10-16 inputs to my UFX, recording on Samplitude with Durec as backup. Previously I used a 15 years old (still going strong on XP and recording with zero dropouts due to latency) HP Pavilion that weighs 3.2 kg versus the 1.45 kg of the Asus. I do not trust my expensive exquipment to the hold, and with the reduced carry on allowance of EU air travel every gram counts. During recording I monitor with Totalmix and Digicheck.
The Zenbook works fine -- except for the occasional ACPI.sys glitches. I have tried all the optimisations that I can think of, but to no avail. Of course, I could abandon Samplitude and just record on Durec, but then I would have no backup.
Has anyone solved the latency problem with the ACPI.sys service?
Alternatively, if it is endemic to this machine, are there other laptops with similar specs that do not have this problem?
