Hi, I'm not absolutely positive this is the right place to post this but since the update, I've had serious problems with playback. The whole system just overloads and I need to hit the panic button. In fact, I don't even need to be playing it back, now that I think of it. If there's no sound playing when it happens, it just acts frozen until I hit the panic button.

I haven't tried much that was super intense for a while now (so I'm not certain it's a brand new problem), but in this case, we're just talking about 4 ReaSynth MIDI tracks and a couple of vocal tracks with no effects, and it doesn't even need to be playing.

When I did start recording more vocal tracks and adding effects, it really didn't seem to change the frequency at which this occurred, nor did adding virtual instruments or changing any settings.

I run Reaper and all MIDI software from an SSD, I have 16GB of RAM, and my CPU is an AMD FX-8320.

In any case, I've experienced stuff like crackles and dropouts when my rig should be able to handle it, but this is new to me.
