Hello all,

I'm having bad CPU overload issues when using Kontakt 7 as a plugin inside Protools Ultimate 2024.6. I'm on a Mac Studio using Monterey 12.7.4 with 64 gB RAM…running PT in native (non-Rossetta) mode. I have an ultra fast nvme drive for storing libraries. I'm wondering if upgrading to Ventura would help.

I installed Kontakt 6 and ran in Rossetta mode, and everything seems fine. Any help would be appreciated. Thx

    Hi! There are several factors that could cause CPU overloads, like buffer size settings or corrupted file paths for Kontakt samples. To help pinpoint the exact issue, we recommend running a support tool on your system. Please get back to our support team via email with more details so we can assist you further. 🙏

    Hello…I just upgraded to Kontakt 8…thinking that might resolve the issue. I am still having problems.

    I am running Protools 2024.6

    The CPU meter is not showing spikes, but when I play a Kontakt instrument…occasionally the audio will drop out as if the CPU is spiking, but the meter shows plenty of CPU left. my buffer sizes are usually 128 /256. I have been instructed by a NI support tech to leave the multi-processor option on…at 10 cores.

    Any help would be appreciated, since I just upgraded my Komplete 14 to 15, so I need to be able to use these instryments effectivelly.

    Thank you!

    Alan
