Hi,
That's not a Mixcraft problem. That means that something on your computer outside of Mixcraft is using a lot of CPU. What programs do you have running? Quit anything that's unnecessarily running in the background.
Check out this video:
Optimize your PC for use with Mixcraft.
If you are on a laptop, plug it in, and go into your Windows power settings to make sure you're not running in battery saving mode.

Unfortunately, like I already posted, the computer is completely IDLE. Note that the app is running fine with no glitches at all, I just find this false reading a bit annoying... Also ran LatencyMon showing no activity. I know a little bit about my computer, I am software developer too.
Just thinking there might be something off from where you are reading the system's status... Is there a way to get VERBAL log from Mixcraft ?
Thanks!

Hi,
We're just displaying the Windows CPU reading. If there's a false reading, then something unusual is going on. Are you running any Windows shell programs, or virtual machines or something?
I can't find your post. It looks like you submitted a ticket and I asked for your log file, but we never got the log file. Get it to happen again, and then quit Mixcraft and send us your mixcraft-log.txt file.
To find the mixcraft-log file, highlight the following line and press Ctrl+C to copy it:
Press the Windows Key+R to pop up the Run box in Windows. Click in the Run box and press Ctrl+V to paste in the line from above. Finally, click OK to go to the location of the mixcraft-log.txt file.
Submit an Acoustica Support Request and attach the log file along with a brief description of the problem.
