multisim in real time

[Skeleton Man]

Hi,

I just worked out that it takes 15 minutes just to simulate 1 full second in
multisim.. is there any way to change this so it runs real time ? (or at
least a lot faster like 1 minute for each second)

Regards,
Chris

Ahummm...in short no.

It takes whatever time it needs to solve lots and lots of diferential
equations. It tries to do this as fast as it bloody well can. Big
circuits can take days to simulate a few micro-seconds. Its a fact of
life. Simulating life, will always take longer than the life itself.

You could of course run a very slow circuit, like a 1Hz filter...
