Eventide Blackhole and Mac Studio performance hit

[dreamuse]

After having updated DP to the 11.32, Blackhole's excessive usage SEEMS to have been solved, though it seems definitely hungry, as it's showing 7-10% usage from DP's usage window.

Clamshell mode applies to portables only when the lid is closed. The M2 Studio had plenty of issues without that.

Update the macOS, Eventide and DP to the latest versions and you’ll be fine.

Thanks, Mike.

Is there a thread that already contains the things there were solved by moving to 14.5? If not, can you give us a couple of nuggets?

There are a few threads on this but none mention Eventide. Since Blackhole and other plug-ins can be accessed from within Kontakt, this is no surprise.

Kontakt was the big one and Apple was the culprit. A few of us were on the front lines of this issue and I was in contact (pardon the pun) with Apple and NI on this while keeping MOTU informed with every development and beta. Logic, Reaper and DP were most affected DAWs but not the only ones. I've circled what you need to know.

No need to answer about my question on clamshell mode: I did my research.
