Reply To: CPU spikes

Hi Frit’s

❓ I need some more clarification on the CPU indicator, if that’s Ok ?

I tried tracking down and killing all known background tasks and general pain software hooks. I’ll clarify what is happening a bit better this time.

Podium program open and a project loaded and arrangement open. Even if I leave Podium as is and do not start playback/recording I get the CPU indicator flashing red for about a second every 44 seconds approx. It doesn’t actually show up as a CPU value in the indicator, i.e. it remains at 0% but flashes red briefly…?
I don’t seem to be suffering from audio dropouts/asio problems but it is a bit disconcerting to see the red flash when I’m actually running it at about 40% max CPU.
I have also utilised the Windows resource monitor to see if it shows up CPU use but, it doesn’t seem to show any abnormal use.

Is this a normal thing for Podium to do (I doubt it) ?

Can you do a special version for me that doesn’t show up the red flash 😆

Any ideas…

I’m going to start to tinker around with my Emu 1820m to see if it’s causing a problem somehow. I’ll get back to you.

P.S. I have already altered the PCI latency settings for my Graphics card so it doesn’t hog the bus.

P.P.S. How is the Z-reverb progressing ?
