BIAS FX 2 performance issues across multiple versions
-
For like the last 4 versions I have been having performance issues with BIAS FX2. Its almost with every preset. I have the Elite version. When I first installed it, it had this issue. Then it got fixed. It now seems like its back. Its chewing through CPU and I'm not even playing. I'm using this in Studio One version 5.5.2. I remember the previous hack around this was to disable the virtual cabs. But I'm using one of the bass presets and it doesn't have a cab.
Anyone else having this issue?
My computer has 2.5ghz i7 intel with 8cpu and 12G of RAM.

I figured out the issue. I went into the Desktop App and set the Block Size to 256. Also set Audiobox to 256 in the DAW too. I guess it needed bigger block of ram to run without choking. It was defaulting to 128, which isn't enough. There are some amps that still cause some cracking and CPU issues. Shutting off the cabinet simulator fixes it.
