Hi, so this is not a specific problem to Renoise, it happens on Cubase and Traktor too but maybe somebody here will have a clue (all configuration below) and I use quite a lot of plugins on my projects but everything was fine until suddenly (literallyovernight)
I can’t even load 3 plugins and the asio load is full in both softwares.
I changed the buffer size from 512 to 2048, tried to update my drivers, double checked my RAM with a memtest, I tried with an old M-audio delta soundcard, I checked for errors and made a defragmentation of my HD where I store my projects and I even try to open a new project on my SSD (where my OS and plugins are installed) and I reinstalled my DAWs and plugins but it’s still the same.
And finally, I just did a format and reinstalled Windows and all the drivers… It’s still the same.
I have to admit I’m out of ideas, if anyone has a clue of what’s happening.
Configuration : Win 7 professional x64
AMD FX 8350 eight core 4.00 GHz
SoundcardOnyx Blackbird
16Go Ram
check taskmanager to see if windows is updating in the background …
Someone else mentioned the same sort of problem , might be related to spectre/meltdown .bug/update patch …but then we would see more cpu perf. related reports on the forum , .which is not the case
Overnight means from one day to another =) It’s not only during night =)
It’s the CPU inside Renoise and asio load in cubase that are 100%[background=#f0f0ed]Windows task manager[/background]tells me UC is 34% and memory 50%…
I’m on 44.1kHz
@NocifLentus: I’m not sure if you’re typing your message in an external editor like Word/OpenOffice and then copying it over to the forum, or if you’re just a really big fan of BBCode, hehe, but there was quite a bunch of unnecessary HTML that somehow got included with your text, and it seemed to mess up the formatting a bit so I performed some quick clean-up. Hope you don’t mind too much!
It seems this has something to do with dgxkrnl.sys and probably Nvidia 3d drivers…
I format and reinstalled windows a last time without the updates, everything is the same.
I found that disabling CPU throtling and using 32 bit vst’s with jbridge in Renoise 3.1 64 bit decreased a bit CPU usage… but I’ll just remember the days when I had 30 waves audio vsts and 15 arturia synths on the same project with nostalgia…
