[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 1383364, member: 21101"] Not really. DAW applications are notoriously sensitive to anything else running, although Macs and OS X are far better at handling this than Windows in my humble opinion. I'm not sure exactly what issue you think you're having, but depending on what you're doing in your DAW, 60% CPU usage might not be unusual. I use Logic Pro and regularly hit that with a far more powerful CPU. If you're doing any serious recording, you should close all other programs, including WiFi connections. If you open your activity monitor (just type that in spotlight and hit enter to launch) you can see if there is anything chomping CPU aside from your DAW. [/QUOTE]
