It's Windows 8 - not RT. Other than that i'm not sure if there is anything special about it. |

Thanks. I realized Windows 8 was in the video description after posting that. My bad. I'll need to pick one up as soon as prices go down. The main use for the table will be for the editor.
BTW, do you think the W150 is powerful enough to run NI's Absynth and Reaktor? _________________ cheers,

When I first got the tablet for about a month I kept throwing stuff at it to see what it could handle.
I haven't tried Absynth but I know I tried Reaktor and the fact that it isn't on here now means it probably didn't work so well. If I remember correctly the CPU hit per voice wasn't great. Madrona Labs Aalto is about the same. They work but not well enough to be useful. Vaz Modular however runs much better on the tablet than it does in Crossover / Wine for me.
Ableton Live 9, Plogue Bidule, Audiomulch, Renoise all run really well on it. Max 6.1 is pretty chuggy depending on what i'm doing. Sugar Bytes and Loomer plugins work well. PSP N20 and the Melda plugins don't. Spectrumworx, SFX Machine Pro, CamelSpace are all good.
Generally focusing on MIDI stuff is no problem and I could have 3 aux busses in Ableton with one effect plugin on each and get about 50%CPU average.
Samplers don't work so well though presumably because of 2GB ram. |

Still Noob-ing around the MM - what do you mean by "multi-mode" here?
Thanks! |

Multi mode, or performance mode, different names for the feature that many polyphonic synths have. It lets you save configurations of many sounds for different midi channels, and recall them at once when needed. Sadly in the NM G1 you have to load each sound to each slot. |
