Logic Pro X CPU Spikes?
Hey all,
So I've been working on Logic Pro 9 for about a year and just upgraded to Logic Pro X. When I open a project, it works fine for about 30 - 45 minutes, then all of a sudden one of my CPU cores maxes out and will not come down. I get choppy and delayed audio, and eventually the "System Overload" message. It only seems to spike when I have any sort of software instrument open (including the Drummer tracks). I've already tinkered with my buffer size and process buffer range (tried all kinds of combinations, none of which solves my problem). The only fix is to close Logic and restart my machine. My interface is a Presonus Firestudio Project. It worked like a dream in LP9 and I don't have any problems as far as recording straight audio tracks with no software tracks present, so I don't think that the interface is the issue. Has anybody else experienced this? It's really making the program un-useable. System specs are below the screen shot:
