Hey altogether,

after years of flawless use on different machines here comes one (to me) new reaper phenomenon: On a rather new Mac Book Pro (2,3GHz i5, 8GB RAM) the fan starts turning intensely a few minutes after opening a session in reaper.

I am running macOS 10.14.2 and Reaper c5.979/64 and get a CPU usage of around 100% as soon as I set up a very first audio track, no plugins enabled, no audio files in the session. An empty session with no audio tracks set up uses near zero CPU.

I have never seen before anything above a few percent CPU in a pure recording session.

Any ideas?

Best,
ribbon
