I only sent the test to a couple of people who had definite symptoms of the issue I suspected.
I know now that the OP's problem is directly related to this since it fixed it for him. We'll address this for the next update since its not a widespread issue and for now there is an easy way to avoid the extra load.
 
The good news is that even after that fix we found a way to optimize dynamic arm even more.
Now even in the worst case scenario with ALL synth ports active, the CPU load is minimal. We shaved off over 40% of the dynamic arm load by doing some optimization analysis and this second optimization will improve dynamic arm CPU performance across the board. We have a ton of new optimizations as well coming up in the next update as well so lots of improvements in this department.
 
Thanks everyone for pitching in to help figure it out.

Noel, 
That's ALWAYS good news to my ears.  Sonar just keeps getting gooder and gooder. 
And now... Back to the music...

Pre-ducking....
 
Wouldn't dynamic arm be even less of a tax if it were per track?
So the code would only have to be concerned with those tracks where dyn arm were potentially going to be used?
 
Or perhaps it would make no difference.
 
I'll see my way out.
 
 
 

Good news that Noel. Theoretically I guess there should be no issue with drum maps being MIDI and all that.

I experienced the 1st core redlining last night as well on W7 64 & had the unexpected audio dropout pop up come up several times since the Jamaica Update on a project not overloaded with synths or plugins as per what I can usually load up in average (for me) projects. It's the first core redlining thing that is new.

...and while you're at it Noel, get the guys there to figure the scanning issue with Wave plug-ins stalling, and some soft synths like Zeta, suddenly developing a timing issue, where they start late and continue to play once the project has stopped.

I have a major problem since I updated to Jamaica, SONAR does not open anymore...
No such a problem yesterday...
 
 
Any idea?
 
Thanks

Please start your own thread listing your entire system spec, including your interface + settings and describe exactly what happens when (& how) you're trying to launch Sonar.

love it.
 
x-mas all year round these days :-)
 
very much appreciated
 

It's been a week now, wondering if there will be a regression fix on the way this week?
Nb not demanding, just wondering...
Thanks..
