Issue with audio performance peak hitting red while doing nothing
Hey everone.
I've been troubleshooting this issue with the peak constantly hitting the red even when the project is just sitting there with all plugins disabled and constrain delay compensation enabled.
I first thought it was due to less than stellar drivers on my ur824 so just bought a Fireface UCX ii. Still have the same issues.
128 samples, everything off except 1 channel record armed with monitor enabled.
Look here for example video..

I have a decent rig, 9800x3d, 64gb ddr5 6000mt ram, 2tb corsair gen5 nvme as boot drive and 4tb gen3 nvme as recording drive. Have an RTX4090 too, but that's not so relevant to the music side of things.
Have done all the standard tweaks in bios and windows to disable core parking and throttling. Nvidia drivers set to Max perf etc. Ethernet power saving features disabled etc. Tried to do every tweak I could.
Fireface connected directly to a usb2.0 port on the mobo with a 5m usb a-b cable.
Anyone have any ideas?
