Since installing Synapse 4 all I’ve had is issues with the program playing catch up with itself and running slowly, my Razer Kraken V4 Pro sounding tinny (tried 2 headsets and the same issue happens). I think something is not right with Synapse 4, removed and still an issue.

I agree @Brutalbipedal. Synapse 4 is amazingly slow. I’ve tested on a few systems with little difference (Win 10 and Win 11, 16GB to 128GB RAM, integrated and discrete GPU(s), Core Ultra 5 through 9). Synapse 3, which I wouldn’t have considered fast before, is blazing fast compared to 4. Huntsman and Basilisk combo usually lose their lighting effects when unlocking the device. I have to relaunch Synapse 4 and wait a loooong timefor it to detect both. Not uncommon for it to only detect one or the other, requiring a force kill and restart. Painful...

Synapse 4 slow and laggy, Kraken 4 Pro not working due to this
