Performance seems snappier to me (this may be attributable to a boot/applications SSD drive). Assuming you can get 8.1 drivers for all of your hardware I would recommend 8.1. I just finished an upgrade from 7 to 8.1. I'm used to Win 7, I need a good reason to go to Win 8, and I haven't found any.has anyone else? Thanks as identified in the above link from gearslutz? Also more notes of polyphony in soft synths. Why would Win 7 allow 35-50% more instances of plugins of the same audio processing plugins without dropout. I haven't measured it, but is it MIDI only or is audio affected? I have noticed latency problems in my system with Sonar 7 and X1 (I now am using X3), but usually these latencies were ASIO related or other system problems. Is the system timing any more accurate with Win 8? I heard there are MIDI jitter problems in Win 7. Is the multi-core scheduling any better under Win 8? (vs Win 7 with latest Service pack) 2.
#Cubase 7 vs sonar x3 64 Bit#
Here's the issues I would like some QUANTITATIVE data on: Assuming 64 bit versions of both. He said timing may be better, but wasn't too specific.
The Sonar lead programmer gave a preview of Win 8 that I read, but he wasn't that convincing.
The guy upgraded his PC OS, and tested it with identical hardware using Sonar plugins and instances. I'm building a new DAW, and I saw this link with a direct comparison, and Win7 tested better than Win 8 by 30-50%.
