Kirchoff and Speccraft locking up Reaper. Too heavy on GPU?

Postby TroelsBK » Thu Dec 19, 2024 2:12 pm

Has anyone else had problems with the TBT plugins locking up the DAW upon opening the GUI? I'm not running a dedicated gpu to reduce fan noise in my PC but especially Speccraft seems to be very heavy on GPU and more often then not locks up the the whole DAW. Are there any GPU optimisations planned or should I finally cave and invest in a dedicated GPU?

You could try lowering the refresh rate in the settings, for example, to 30. That should help quite a bit.

Already did and it does help but I still get lock ups fairly often from Speccraft.

You can try upgrading your graphics driver; sometimes upgrading the driver can significantly improve performance.
