Hey again...FL allows you to use fixed buffer size, then additionally use maximum, and/or maximum from host...check it out.audiothing wrote:What was the buffer size before and after? I'll do more tests tomorrow but so far it looks fine here with different buffer sizes and sample rates.Debutante wrote:OK just to make sure I loaded the plugin by itself - shot to 55%
Changed the buffer size option in FL and shot down to 6%... there's your answer? Specs again...
FL Studio 12 - 32Bit
Windows 8.1 64bit
AMD FX-8350
Creative SBZ ASIO @ 44.1 or 96
new buffer size is 9600 samples / 100ms latency @ 96 khz = 13% CPU in totally empty project OR
4416 samples / 100.14 ms latency @44.1 khz = 6% CPU in totally empty project
Mind you I have my soundcard latency set to max 100ms. I just tried to set it to 10ms and immediately cpu usage shot to 99% and crashed.
This is my current not too crappy soundcard http://us.creative.com/p/sound-blaster/sound-blaster-z, but I might have had some issues with it even though its innards are decent. I really need to reinstall my 1212M...

Could be related to the soundcard then. Again, no other reports like that so far and I can't replicate it here on my system.Debutante wrote:Mind you I have my soundcard latency set to max 100ms. I just tried to set it to 10ms and immediately cpu usage shot to 99% and crashed.

Cool stuff! I don't have Megaphone yet, but I quite like using Speaker, which is similar in concept.
