Are you using dual monitors? If so what happens if you move the GUI to the other monitor?

Hi, Craig,
do you have the latest version of the plugin? It's 2.2.16.

I'm not at my computer now and haven't used TH2 for a few weeks but I definitely remember experiencing crackling when moving my mouse around the interface.

Just wanted to add that I too have had this problem. I don't use TH2 that much so haven't worked with it recently, nor have I had the chance to see how it performs with different/new video drivers at different latencies. The issue for me was moving the GUI from left to right and back again to access the different modules.

In the past we found that UI doing too much alpha blending using GDI calls would result in crackle.
This is because GDI moved to Kernel around Win2K and Kernel servicing takes priority over the highest possible priority audio threads.  Having MMCSS on can help some, but in general anything that results in too much Kernel CPU usage will preempt user mode threads.  Raising the latency a notch should work around that.

Cakewalk has spoken. Better mark this one as solved Craig.

"Alpha blending using GDI calls"...I have zero idea what that means, but I'll try increasing latency

Is this the (Sonar) producer version or the full version? How do you update the TH2 Producer version in Sonar?

Graphics Device Interface.
Alpha blending is to do with transparency (background/foreground).
