CPU HIGH

Hi,

As soon as I start Cubase 6,when I check in Task manager,the CPU shoot to 99% without any audio or vst or midi tracks

loaded.It stayed like this even when I load audio or midi tracks with vst’s but eventually pops and crackling noises are heard when I play fast on keyboard and system freezes.

My PC configuration is:
I7 Core processor 960@ 3.20Ghz
Memory 12gb
Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit

DAW Cubase 6.1 64 bit.

Any help from somebody please.Thank you

Hi,

What Audio Device do you use? Try to increase the Buffer Size.
