    Just wondering - when toying around with Kiloheats and its presets I often have a CPU load of 100%.
    Does this make sense?
    Should I wary and check my system set-up

    I am using Studio one
    I have 32 GB ram
    And this processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.59 GHz



    Thanks

    What version of kiloHearts are you using? 2.1.2? previous 2.1.1? any? CE or legit?

    Can you indicate a preset name (and plugin), specifically? (in order to attempt to reproduce - however I don't use Studio One, only Bitwig Studio, or REAPER).

    Phase Plant can have intensive presets, yes, but not 100% usage worthy. Try playing around with buffer sizes or compatibility options in your DAW.

    If you're messing with Phase Plant and hitting extreme usage, try disabling the "poly" tab over the FX lanes, because when it's enabled it applies the fx to each and every voice individually as opposed to collectively, this can save a ton of processing power. Also lowering the overall polyphony in the bottom panel is a good option as well.

    I use it on my laptop with these specs:

    Win 10 v. 10.0.19044
    Acer Aspire A515-56
    Processor: 11th Gen i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz 2803 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
    RAM: 16.0 GB
    1TB SSD

    Never had any peak like this, even when using very complex patches that include Phaseplant and multipass together....
