Issue: Twist's sound is distorted and/or playback drops out.

Solution: Your CPU may be overloading. Try the following:

• Low sound card buffers (low latency settings) strain your CPU more, so it may be helpful

to increase the buffer size. This is found in your sound card setup in your host software.

• If you are running a lot of Twist's built-in effects and running multiple instances of Twist's

(or other processor-intensive applications), this could be the case. If this isn't the case,
then your computer may be running other processes that are using resources Twist needs
for real-time audio processing.

Windows users: Check the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl, Alt, and Delete
simultaneously.

Mac OS X users: Check your Activity Monitor in your Applications/Utilities.

Quitting processes using a lot of CPU power will free up resources for Twist. Please note
that we do not recommend force-quitting applications. Your DAW may also let you bounce
Twist tracks down to audio tracks and/or "freeze" Twist tracks to free up CPU cycles.
Check with your DAW's reference manual on how to do this.
