If anyone has a help I'd sure love to try literally anything. Like does anyone else experience this same issue because I'm at a loss for words how this program is seriously that CPU intensive to the point I can't complete a track. I've tried switching between different ASIO drivers, changing the buffer length as high as it goes, etc etc. I have tried virtually changing all the audio settings with no success, only slight increases in performance but it still has a significant number of under runs at certain points. I feel like there has to be SOMETHING I'm missing in the settings. It's like, I can run games on that PC like GTA V on maxed out settings with graphical mods, yet FL Studio is somehow making my PC turn into something comparable to some cheap notebook. It has an AMD FX8350 processor (8core 4ghz), 8GB RAM, and a GTX 970 4GB SC Video Card and I'm getting serious under runs on even that. My gaming rig which I've put a lot of money into croaks up on this thing. This program makes my gaming desktop even go to shit. For example, my laptop runs an i7 processor and that processor I know is able to accomplish a lot, but FL is seriously slaying the complete shit out of it. I'm like there's gotta be SOMETHING I'm clearly missing because it's not like my PC's hardware is bad. I studied the Image Line trouble shooting page and I seriously can't find ANYTHING that makes a significant difference. and I'm really feeling the track and making progress, my CPU usage starts going off the fucking charts and I'm getting serious under runs and I'm at a loss for how to fix it. I'm sure a lot of people have asked this but this is seriously frustrating me because I'll start working on a track and then a decent way through where I have tons of plugins running, samples, etc.
