"Disk is Too Slow" error in Garageband 09

Hi All,

 

I just upgraded my computer to a Macbook Pro 15" 2.8Ghz, 4GB RAM & a 7200rpm drive and running OS 10.6

 

Last night, I finally got all my Line 6 software updated and got all my settings correct to get sound into, and out of GB. I put down a few bars of loop percussion and began to record guitar over it, but after a measure, I got an error that said "Disk is too slow -10005"

 

There's nothing else running, I was using a "basic" track, instead of a guitar track (no fx or modeling on the computer side).

 

I also noted that the transport cursor (the thing that shows you where you are in GB) is red, and the online help mentions that that happens when the system is being taxed. It should normally be yellow.

 

I can see no reason that I'm having this issue. There's got to be something I'm missing! A quick look at the Activity Monitor shows no black hole sucking up my processor or disk usage....ugh!

 

With my Powerbook G4 1.67Ghz book, I rarely had an issue like this (unless I had a ton of tracks).

 

Any ideas? Suggestions about where to look?

 

Btw...I'm using a POD XT-Live, connected via usb

 

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

Hi!

 

I've got the same problem... I have equal computer preferences and after recording couple guitars, error pops up, saying: Disk is too slow (write) but how could that be when we both have 7200 rpm disks... ? If anyone figured it out please post...

I have the same issue running MBP 13'' of the latest model. I have OS X 10.6.1 and recording a single track with my guitar on an Roland Edirol FA-66. If someone knows how to solve this, please post it here!
