Hi everybody,

I'm very new to Reaper and I really hope some of you can help me out with this issue. I recorded a song and I now have a significant amount of tracks in Reaper.
However, I'm mixing the song and I've now got plugins loaded on two tracks (one each) and Reaper starts lagging. The lag is so bad I can't continue mixing like this.

The fact that I've got a pretty simple laptop doesn't help I guess.

So what can I do about it? Some adjustments regarding buffer or latency maybe?

Thanks so much in advance,

Larry
