Does this happen to anyones else? You turn on your heavily RTASed session, and your usage meter is at about 75% and OK. Play the song for a couple of minutes and all is cool. It's handling it! Meter still looks at about 75%.
Then you open one plugin and adjust the EQ slightly and hit play. It plays for 30 seconds than crackles and freezes, with the CPU usage meter now at 90-100%. Take out that plugin (deactivate, not bypass) and the usage is still 100%.
It's like if you anger it once it just says "nope" until you restart Pro Tools.
Anyone have this?
