Hello,
I recently bought an iMac, to have as an extra computer at home (as opposed to my main computer in my studio) and installed VST on it. By accident I happened to open the VST Performance meter, and saw that the red "over" light was on in the CPU meter. This was at a time where I wasn't using any functions in Cubase, all plugins were turned off, etc. I found this odd, but paid no further attention to it, as all midi functions performed flawlessly.
But now, when I for the first time wanted to record some audio (using the iMacs built-in soundcard), the computer really behaved as if the CPU was having a hard time. There were large glitches in the audio already when monitoring the sound source before recording.
I tried disabling audio, and then the red "over" light went off. But it's a 400 mhz G3 CPU so it should be able to take at least 24 audio tracks or so. Everything else in the computer works just fine. Does anybody have an idea what the problem might be?
Thanks
