Some VSTis seem to cause problems when I have the GUI up on screen. Everything will go all jerky, sometimes the music stutters and if I try and move the VST window everything will crunch to a halt for a few seconds.
It's weird because as soon as I close the window, everythings back to normal again, even if the synth is still playing, so it can't be the algorithims ( or whatever it is that makes noises ) thats causing the slow down. The worst offenders are arturia synths but it happens with a couple of others too.
Could it be that my graphics card is too shit too hadle the GUI and is causing the big freeze? I've got a NVIDA RIVA TNT Model 64, don't know if thats any good or not. Would it be worth getting a better one?
