hi Michael,
Sound on Sound does very good articles on this subject

...but unfortunately, this recent one isn't for free:-

...don't worry tho', I have a copy of the mag (i think),
so I can have a quick check for you later.

>From what I remember, it's mostly a matter of switching off all the 
graphic features (which is the main difference between Vista & XP),
and then performance is similar to XP as long as the Vista device drivers 
are ok.

If you have 64bit Vista, then I think there's a 64bit version of Bidule 
available
from the Plogue website.

hope that helps
