Yes, I would suggest removing any SynthEdit plugins from the demo tracks. They’re usually are very cpu consuming, and theres still some very cool and free coded plugins out there. I’d suggest trying to try to replace that lallapalooza synth with something like rgc:Audio’s Triangle II, and maybe use drums from PlugSound Free as opposed to Drumatic. Anyway, the less cpu usage people see when they try the demo of Podium the better in my opinion 🙂
