Vegas choking on plugin chain

Hi,
I'm using a bus with Autotune, Wave Hammer and a highpass filter and for some reason Vegas chokes during playback when the track assigned to that Bus is NOT playing.

It plays fine if I bypass all the plugins on the bus (but not if I turn off any one of them), and it plays fine while the plugins are on and it is processing the track. But once the track ends, the rest of the playback starts choking again.

any clues?

thanks!

Sounds like Autotune has a Intel floating point denormal problem. This is basically when silence or very small signal is sent through for processing. The Intel CPU goes into a "high precision mode" which is very CPU intensive.

Check with the Autotune developers concerning this. It is a common problem with many plugins.
