Hey guys,
I was wondering if it is bad if when my laptop is running Pro Tools MP9, it is using 130% of my cpu power (according to activity monitor)? Also, when running maschine, massive, and a couple of other VI's, pro tools only says about 20-40% of my cpu is being used for rtas plugins. Even though this is the case, occasionally my computer will glitch out for a second, pause the session, and bring up a pop saying something about my cpu and suggesting to raise the HWC buffer size. Why is this happening and is there anything I can do to help it?
