Hi, I`m having some problems with the CPU showing very high when running many plug-ins on Powercore firewire. Anyboby else experience this?

The computer is a Q9450 with 12 mb FSB, 2 bg ram, ASUS P5E3 Deluxe on XP.

There is no problem running many SONNOX plug-ins on 17 tracks (3 plugs on each), and the CPU only shows 14%

Why?

I had the same prob, sonnox plugs were acting well but a lot of native tc plug were extremely unstable, disconnecting all the time and their cpu usage were pretty high.

I solved the issue by running the poco on a dedicated pci firewire card, one recommended on the tc support website.

now it's rock solid, never crashed since the 3.0 update.
