Q: Logic Pro X 10.2.4 - CPU load distribution
I am brand new for Mac, Logic Pro X and Mac Pro.( come from Win98 - Cubase & Win7 - Sonar 8.5 ).
Is there a strategy or procedure to follow for the distribution on the CPU load.
Every first Software Instrument ( Omnisphere, Capriccio, Nexus, Kontakt ..... ) you start on a Channel Strip
uses the right side of the CPU Monitor meter. Sometimes so high that you can even not record a serie
of notes ( depending on the used patch of course ).
If you succeed to record a serie of notes, then the distribution on ajacent CPU's begins on the left
side to build up, but I don't know when or how this process will start.
Sometimes the right side thread stays at its maximum and won't distribute to other CPU's.
Distribution sometimes begins when - you start stop during playback - put an audio track in record mode - load a
new instrument in a track - add additional instruments and tracks - put more tracks in record mode - just
sit and wait for some time when the playhead passes the end of the recorded track...........
I made a template with 24 different Instrument Channel strips. Same problem to start ( with some patches ).
Once establised it stays O.K. ,but the start with some complex instruments is difficult.
( one solution can be : don't use these patches )
Some settings :
Sample rate 96kHz - Buffer Size ( changed from 32 to ) 512 samples - 24 bit
Apollo Twin audio - Playback & Live tracks - Processing treads >automatic
If somebody can help. Thanks in advance.
Mac Pro (Late 2013), OS X El Capitan (10.11.5), 12-core - 64 GB - D700 - 1TB PCI
