Re: Interface Builder eats the CPU

I tried some more things, and I get the same behaviour when: - all racks are minimised - the patch editor is open. - IB is visible I guess it's a GPU thing. Just wondering if there are any other M1 users that have the same issue? I must say it's already a lot better then on my former MBP i9, which w...

I'm putting some preset managers from different racks in the Top Header space. The preset managers are in subpatches in the corresponding racks. When I unlock the workspace and re-arrange the different preset managers, they jump back to their initial position when I minimise or maximise racks... I t...

Interface Builder eats the CPU

I'm running a workspace and it's running steady at app. 12% CPU load. When I switch to IB view, the CPU starts ramping up to 30%, even when there's nothing on the IB page... Any suggestions on how to solve this? I'm running the latest Hollyhock 5.2.230411 M1- M2 edition on a MBPro M1 Max. Thanks in ...

Hi, just reviving this thread :-) With Renoise, Bespoke and Endlesss now supporting Ableton Link it would be really very handy to have Usine doing it too.

For the moment I am running Ableton Live in the background just for the link, sending MIDI Clock to Usine. It works, but you need a copy of Live to do that and it's also a big waste of resour...

Get a tablet that runs Win7 and use the network options of Usine to open a 'remote' version of the patch (if it's too heavy for the tablet).

In the latest update my delete button doesn't seem to work anymore. Am I the only one?
Another strange thing is I cannot use my right-mouse button anymore for quick patching (since Hollyhock) even in Windows.
Is this normal, or do I miss something to make it work again?
