Hi,

Usually Cubase spread the CPU usage among the tracks, so if You have a two core processor and even tracks are assigned to first core and odd tracks to second core. That's the way how it utilizes CPU resources.

Decimort is a CPU hog ;) it's a fact.

- Please tell me what percentage usage of CPU causes Decimort on Your system? (insert single audio track with a wave on it and add there a single instance of Decimort)

- What processor do You use?
- What OS?

Thank You and best regards,
Sebastian

Decimort, cubase cpu issues

Post by frankiedeceased » Sun Feb 15, 2009 2:56 pm

I too also use Cubase 4, and 1 instance of decimort consumes up to 50 % of my available CPU power. I am on windows XP, with a AMD Athlon x2 4200 dual core 2.2 ghz cpu and 3 Gb of ram. I also own Devastor and this uses only a fraction of the processing power compared to Decimort. I also use it with FL studio 8, and it doesn't seem to use anywhere near as much cpu power as in Cubase. Is this a known issue at all with the plug-in? I hace checked and the multi-processing option in cubase is definitley switched on.

Hi,

First of all I must say Decimort is CPU hog :). CPU usage metering in Cubase and FL Studio differs a lot. FL Studio make some kind of average value from all cores, where as Cubase shows the single core's usage with the maximum value.

Cubase spreads CPU cores usage among the tracks. In two core based systems even tracks are processed by first core, odd tracks by second core.

That's the reason why Your reading from two different host differs between each other.

Best regards,
Sebastian

Hey,

Decimort should run smoothly on such processor. Can You insert only one Decimort? how does it manifest? High CPU usage or something happens when You try to insert another Decimort (Cubase crashes)?

Best regards,
Sebastian

High CPU usage and clicks on sound in cubase.

Really i cant use it in either of my projects (mixing projects, productions projects, etc)

Hi,

What soundcard do You use?

Do the clicks appear also on exported/mixdowned tracks?

Best regards,
Sebastian
