Re: Superior Drummer taking up cpu 40%! even cached! Am I doing something wrong?
In normal operation Superior2 loads it's samples into RAM when the kit initializes. Cached operation requires the samples to be loaded one time as each articulation is triggered (i.e. as each kit piece is hit) this does take system resources.

Re: Superior Drummer taking up cpu 40%! even cached! Am I doing something wrong?
took some advice -
created new project one track using superior drummer 2 using default 2 tracks (not multi) got me down to 4 to 5 one the system use CPU so using multitrack out from superior is the issue it just sucks a ton of cpu I like to have control of all my drum tracks so the only way is to record them to save cpu. any one else have this issue

Re: Superior Drummer taking up cpu 40%! even cached! Am I doing something wrong?
Try moving the kit pieces or groups (rack toms, floor toms) to separate channels in SD2 with aux tracks in PT, one by one and see when the CPU starts going up.
I always mult-channel in PT with SD2, but I am also on Mac, not Windows 10. Someone else on Windows 10 may be able chime in.

Re: Superior Drummer taking up cpu 40%! even cached! Am I doing something wrong?
right now if I do multitrack out and aux track in PT a get that super high cpu reading.
I will try your advice today do them one by one also multi track within it self has like three tracks for bass drum and two for snare so that set up I have to assume eats up cpu power. I thought with so much ram (I've been using protools since ver 6) plug in take up so much cpu was a thing of the past... nope! thank for everyone help here.

Re: Superior Drummer taking up cpu 40%! even cached! Am I doing something wrong?
This is how I usually work, (and what groups I make depends on what kit and SDX are in use and what kind of sound I'm trying to get but...)
I create busses in the SD mixer for example; Kick, snare, hihat,RackTom,FloorTom,Oh,Amb..... any other things you want to group. Route all the kick mics to "kick", all the snare mics to "snare"... etc. Assign those busses to output channels in SD, then only create 6 aux tracks in PT. Alternatively, in SD, you can assign all 3 kick drum mics to output 1/2, 2 or 3 snare drum mics to out 3/4, hihat 5/6, RTs 7/8.... etc. and only create as many aux channels as you need in PT to satisfy those kit piece 'groups' routed to outputs. Hope I am making sense... and helping BTW at the top of the forum you will see an option "User CP", select it, go down to "Edit Signature" and update it to the actual type of PC and processor you running. That should help in future posts.
