in Kontakt

wondered if anybody else noticing a high cpu usage using Leap? Noticing 40% sometimes going into red. I have strict in the K8 settings in engine. Mac m1 16gb. Would appreciate any thoughts on this, thanks in advance.

    Was this with a particular leap instrument? I couldn't reproduce the issue and it's a M1 Macbook Air with 16Gb as well. Where is the Leap instrument installed? Is it on an external hard drive? What's the format of that drive?

    thank you for reply Jeremy. ok it seems the Leap Kits are running pretty high, Im playing them as I would in Arcade? I have also loaded expansion kits in Loops on a new project, still pretty high. I turned off the effects with brought it down a tad. Installed content in Lacie 5tb format APFS. I don't know, maybe 30% isn't high? I do love the new stuff though. thanks.

    When. I checked some of the Leap instrument went up to 30% but I didn't notice any effect on the audio.

    Maybe this can help: How Can I Optimize the Performance of Kontakt?
