    Does this mean you have selected force cached on? If so, deselect cached mode. What cached mode does is prevent samples from preloading into RAM, which results in a delay the first time a sample is requested. It is effective when the host has little RAM. This isn’t the case of your machine. Try using only 2 cores as well. See if any of this helps.

    Thanks for the help Brad. I up loaded a few screen shoots maybe there is something else you may see and also took your advice but it didn’t help . Funny thing is , is that I have superior drummer 3 loaded on a Mac book pro run-in Sierra 10.12.6 , 2.5 ghz processor and only 16 gigs of memory with iTunes version 12.7 and have no problems at all , that is why I suspected iTunes an contacted apple first . P-ram was reset, I even reloaded os which of course did not help. The only change I made was I moved ez drummer path to my G force drive to see if that would help but it didn’t. Im stating wonder if it is my audio interface or system hard drive which would suck as they are less than a year old. Thanks again.

    I don’t see any screen shots, but no worries. Can you try running the activity monitor while running SD3 and iTunes, see if anything looks like it’s take too much memory/CPU? Also does this happen with both apps minimized? The hard drive shouldn’t matter as once the samples are loaded in RAM, they are not referenced from disk. What release of SD3?
