High CPU with Thunderbolt Clarett interface
Apr 02 2019 | 8:14 am
Hello
I am running a big patch for ambisonics reproduction and I just bought a focusrite clarett 8prex interface with thunderbolt connnection.
the patch runs some vst and the hoa library for ambisonics
i have used this with an RME fire face 400 with a max of 60% cpu and with RME madiface with max 50% cpu
with the clarett I have 100% cpu
my vector size and buffer are at 512 in all cases
my laptop is
MacBook Pro 15” early 2011
16Gb ram
thinderbolt 1
i use max 7
if I run an intensive ambisonics project in reaper with the same vst and some more I have 5% cpu with 16 channels
Is it possible max 7 does not work well with this interface or any thunderbolt?
cannot find anything on the forum
