RME FF'UC is a very good audio interface so I doubt that it's the problem.
(You might want to check that you have the latest drivers and firmware for it just in case - rme).

Using a sample rate of 96k will stress your system by at least two times compared with 48k and even more than 44k. It could simply be that your computer can not handle it. What CPU are you using and what buffer size are you using? (maybe someone with similar spec system can compare).

ASIO is the preferred protocol. Since you are using ASIO4ALL I can only assume that you are using an on-board sound card and not an "audio interface". They are kind of the same but on-board sound cards are made basically just to play back pre-recorded audio and not very good and generating audio on the fly ie real time / daw use.

Can you specify what device you are using?


@ Both faun2500 & Spectralis:
Do you have the >100% RT CPU issue with all or only particular synths?
