Abnormal CPU usage?
Posted: 30 Nov 2019
Hi,
I am using Reason 10.4d4 on a 16 GB RAM Macbook pro and I've been having some weird issues regarding my CPU consumption. I used to be able to do extremely large projects with plenty of effects on each track without any problem (on the exact same rig). But for some reason, the track I am working on at the moment requires a lot of CPU (according to the DSP meter and to my Task Manager) and there are only 9 tracks not involving anything fancy. When I run the track I get 3-4 bars on the DSP reading, as well as some cracks... the buffer size is around 7 ms.
I don't understand what's happening... I've tried restarting Reason and my computer. I've even deleted more than 50 GB on my HDD. I've optimized the project so it is now workable, but still, a couple of months back my computer would have handled that project easy-peazy...
Anyone experiencing the same problem? Is there something going on with the latest update, or is there something going wrong on my side?
Thank you!
