As far as I recall Cubase's engine is always running.

What's your sound card latency set to? If you increase your latency by even a little, you might notice the perf meter drop a bit.

Garth - I have the same. Doesn't go up much when I start over a dozen tracks all with VST plug ins and also a couple of VSTi's running, so perhaps its normal?

Thanks for the replies chaps.

The latency of my sound card is all ready set to around 23ms it can go higher but i dont notice a massive amount of CPU being free'd up, also whe i use the lower latecnies, 6ms for example i get clicking and popping does anyone else with an RME notice this?

Cheers
