I have had major latency issues since the update.  Had been working like a dream up until now.  Had been researching solutions when i found this forum.

Has anyone else had latency issues after the update?

I didn't check the latest version but I had to move back from 2023.09 to 2022.09 because I was getting annoying issues with latency when recording instrument takes (plugins, Kontakt, etc). Issues occurred at some point while working on the project, i.e. not in freshly new projects, not at the beginnings. Weird.

Hi everyone,

I'm using a multi-CPU system.

Recently, while working on some mixing projects, I noticed that the system load felt higher than usual.

You all probably know the kind of issues that come up in these situations, like the audio engine stopping or sound cutting out intermittently.

So, I opened Task Manager and found that only one of the two CPUs was being loaded.

I'm attaching some screenshots—one with the Plug-in Load Balance feature turned on and the other with it turned off.

Previously, the system would utilize all CPU cores, but something seems off now. 


And another thing, I noticed is that when the Plug-in Load Balance is enabled, the load is distributed more evenly, but instead of feeling more stable, it seems like the overall load is actually increasing.

What's the problem here?

I've noticed this before, which is why I often end up turning off the Plug-in Load Balance feature while using the program.

First off, none of the “cpu load” indicators are very accurate.  I’ve got projects that the processor can’t handle when using too many of a certain VST and neither the Cakewalk/ Sonar performance meter nor the Task Manager show it. Sure, they show an increase but nothin* goes red or bangs the ceiling. 
 

So don’t depend or focus  on them. They are often an interesting indicator but nothing more.
 

Focus on the cause of the problem which is almost always too small of a buffer or  a VST that inhales the processor and cores (like Arturia’s Augmented anything.)
