what do you hope to gain by changing presets?
Depending on the plugin, some preset settings may cause a higher CPU load, possibly leading to denormals. If you see 100% usage, then it is most often caused by denormals.
atm it seems that Podium suffers from cpu spikes when various plug ins have been changed / added / deleted for some time – but why does Podium use so much more cpu power ( charged by Windows Task Manager ) than say REAPER?
To repeat myself, try to pinpoint which plugin is causing you trouble. When we know that, it will be easier to go from there.

the exact same plug ins with the exact same presets in the exact same project don’t overload other hosts …
If you want help with diagnosing the problem, then you’ll need to provide more info than that. What plugins? What hosts?
You could try to pinpoint which plugin causes the high CPU usage. Bypass/remove your plugins one by one, until you find the one that causes the high CPU usage. Once you find the plugin, try changing preset. Etc. etc.

issue might be related to “left overs” when changing / swapping plug ins …
One way to find out, is to save your project, reboot, load Podium and the project again, and check if the CPU usage is lower?

a little off topic but how you can create multiple master track?
Drag audio output mapping(s) onto the blank area below the last track.

It should of course be possible to manually create a new arrangement from scratch, using only MIDI tracks, to replicate the way a MIDI file is imported.
To clarify, do you mean that it ought to be possible but isn’t at the moment, or that it is possible and I’m doing it wrong? 😕
It ought to be possible. Until I get this fixed, you’ll have to import a MIDI file, and modify the imported tracks.
Thanks for the detailed screenshots. This is a bug. It should of course be possible to manually create a new arrangement from scratch, using only MIDI tracks, to replicate the way a MIDI file is imported. The inspector and track menus expect to have a “master” audio track in the arrangement. I’ll fix this so that it skips the master track requirements, if there are no audio outputs defined in the project.

The strange problem I remembered (and now confirmed) is that I have trouble getting the first input note recorded at all if it is played close to the start of a bar.
This happens only when a new sequence is created by the recording – NOT when I record with a sequence already present on the track and the recorded notes get added to it. (Frits, if you need any more info, just tell me once you get back!)Other than that, I didn’t notice any timing-related problems… If and when the first played note was recorded, it was on time. 😕
Thanks. I managed to reproduce and fix this problem. It happens when recording short notes that starts before the bar line and ends after the bar line. I just released 3.0.2 with a fix for this. I could not detect any “bad” timing, only the occasional dropped first note.
Hmm, seems like Freedom and Podium are incompatible then. Anyone else had experience with YT Freedom?
That message should indicate that Podium could not detect the dll as a VST plugin (of the same x86/x64 archictecture as the Podium version you’re running). If you have jBridge installed, you could try to wrap it in that.
What error message do you get when you try to import it?

If I’m correct you can use composite track for midi, but you can’t record? any news on this side?
No new development here, sorry. MIDI loop recording is not implemented yet.
Another method, where you don’t have to modify the sound properties:
I’ve now deleted the two spam topics that was created during this last week. I usually have to delete spam posts every week, and I also delete the users accounts that posts the spam. About a year ago some very offensive spam posts appeared, and I had to enable the “email confirmation” option on the forum registration.
Thanks. This will be fixed in 3.02.
