Question

Hello,

I am working on a project with 50 audio tracks in 96k. When working, I am using not more than 5% disk and for whatever reason I get very often a disk overload that is not visible on the performance meter out of the red light.

I do not understand what is happening.

I have tried without success the following things :

-changing the dropout protection from Best to low and medium.

-clear cache

This is very annoying.

Here is my system :

Mac Pro 6.1 2013

12 core xeon

64 GB ram

1TB SSD with fast read and write bandwidth

macOS Big Sur

Latest studio one version.

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Clement

Answer 1

I have exactly the same problem with Studio One 6. My system is i7-12700K, 64GB RAM, 2TB M.2 NVME WDSN850 Gen4. I get spikes even in 0% usage. Sometimes in 1% or 2%. It doesn't make sense to me.

Answer 2

I'm having the same issue, getting disk spikes with just 3 tracks, no plugins..I tried with another daw and it worked fine..
