Re: Actually what is the "Processor Scheduling" in Windows 7 do with the audio quality?

Yes, things have moved on since since I wrote that feature back in SOS January 2008, but so have the number of cores found in modern CPUs

Most audio developers do pay more attention to scalability across multiple cores nowadays, but you can still find situations where a dual-core processor with a faster clock speed will outperform a quad core with more processing power overall - it’s all down to the sort of softsynths and softsamplers that you’re running and how you’re using them.
