Why UI so slow & glitchy on 5k Retina? Zooming its pain, more than 1 track in arrange it pain, full screen mode painful too. How we can use new tools, devices, if we can't work with GUI? Over two years I send it to support/bug report and nothing! [UPDATE] Have solved this issue with Resolutionator https://manytricks.com/resolutionator/ Need to set NON-RETINA (hidpi) resolution and all works fine! |

Well this has to do with GUI being rendered by CPU and not GPU, Bitwig will slow down rendering if CPU is needed for Audio. The issue is there since day 1 and my guess is that Bitwig although knowing the issue doesn't really want to fix it, probably because it takes too many resources / development & they rather want to have fancy new features. I think this is really messy and will not upgrade my license until GPU is used to offload the graphics stuff. answered Sep 13 at 18:18 by weasel (51) |

It should not be slow or glitchy if you don't max out the cpu. Did you check if your computer gets clocked down due to heat issues using the Intel power gadget? https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-power-gadget-20 answered Aug 09 '18 at 14:50 by dom ♦♦ (2.0k)

Over two years I send it to support/bug report and nothing! I have the same problem! Imac 27 5k! exactly the same! Logic works fine, but bitwig slows down! it's awfully shaking! answered Aug 11 '18 at 02:19 by Gaev (11) |

I also have issues with lagging graphics. I use an external 4k display through HDMI on my mid 2014 15" MBP. The CPU meter can be well under 20% when this occurs. I would love to know why this happens. It can be incredibly frustrating when your meters are a 1/2 second too slow. Likewise, these issues are not present in any other DAW I use. A real shame as I am very much hooked on Bitwig at the moment. answered Aug 27 '18 at 18:30 by Jeremysfx (117) |

Hello Bitwig Team, For testing my second display I connect it via Display port instead HDMI and I have the same laggy/freezing GUI zooming as on the iMac now! Guys you must give us setting to open your DAW in low resolution on Mac! answered Oct 08 '18 at 10:18 by Seldome (71) edited Oct 08 '18 at 10:29 |

Ok! Some results of my new tests here. • iMac 27" 5K (Late 2015) GUI work terrify laggy/glitchy on all resolutions: 1900x600 / 2048x1152 / 2560x1440 / 2880x1620 / 3200x1800 • External display 27" 4K via HDMI (low res quality DPI picture) Works well on all resolutions. • External display 27" 4K via Display Port (high res quality DPI picture) Works well only on 1920x1080 and 3840x2160 resolutions. Come on guys! Do something with it, please! Low Resolution enable maybe? answered Oct 14 '18 at 01:08 by Seldome (71) edited Oct 14 '18 at 01:09 |

when will they fix the GUI problem on Mac 5K Retina? This is absolutely a mockery of users! answered Nov 25 '18 at 01:05 by Gaev (11) edited Nov 25 '18 at 01:13 |
