I have a same setup MPB i7 2.0 with 8gb ram and a 24" external monitor via thunderbolt and I dont see this behaviour youre describing.

I track huge projects with 32 or 64 buffer- this is the only ocassion that the fans go noisy- but tthe cpu usage is usually at 50-60%. Im using a focusrite Saffires 40 and 56.

The only thing I did it was I turned of the automatic GPU switching in the Power options in System preferences, so the discrete Radeon is always used.

TRy this setup for buffering:



Other suggestion, a bit more radical would be to move the Reaper.ini to the desktop and restart reaper. It will reset your Reaper instance. Its located under users Library. Options/Show Reaper resources path.

Then try if the problem occurs again. And I suggest you export your settings in Global preference before removing the ini file.


Hopefuly this will give you some options to fix your problem.

Regards J
