Yep, same issue for me.
With scaler audio on detect audio, and one short sample running, my CPU hits 420-500% on the Ableton usage meter and the daw stutters as it plays back the audio.
Same as DucksOnQuack my task manager says cpu usage is spiking repeatedly but only by 12-16% above normal.
Using Ableton 12.1 on windows 10 Pro, AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D, 64gb RAM & msi MAG X570 Tomahawk WIFI motherboard
Normally I barely hit the 30% level of usage with a full screen of tracks and plugins. Also, didn’t have this issue with Scaler 2.

This has been fixed in Scaler 3 1.0.6.

I have I7 14700k liquid cooled and a Asus 4080 super…
As soon as I attempt to detect audio with Scalar, I get 99% cpu usage in FL. Can anyone help with this? It will detect midi or anything else without a problem, but audio. detect, record, it goes nuts.
