No, all good when it’s closed.
I don’t know how I could do that (Mac Studio M1, Sonoma), I don’t find any option about GPU in GP5’s configuration screens.
(Today, it took more than 10 times the loop to finally go to 100% CPU.)
I also tested on a Macbook Air M1, 14.4.1, internal sound card, same test file, same issue.
I would think you would have to do it for your computer, not in GP.
But, I just looked at your prior post. The discussion I read about disabling a NVIDIA GPU was about a Windows machine. So, perhaps not relevant for you?
Can you upload the audio file?
One thing worth trying is changing the Color Profile.
You’ll find it linked to this post.
Tried, no change.
Just tested and I noticed CPU usage raising up.
Loaded your gig file, loaded the audio file, loop enabled in SAFP, pressed play
CPU is about 1%
Now enabled “Detect and Sync BPM with host” => CPU now is about 14% when playing.
Deactivated the BPM sync => CPU stays at about 14% when playing.
With BPM sync deactivated I saved the gig file, restarted GP, loaded the gig, pressed play
=> CPU is about 14%, BPM sync is not activated.
Now I removed the audio file and loaded it again, BPM sync is deactivated,
pressed Play => CPU about 1%
