I've had this problem with my 2010 13" MBP for some 7 months now and it's really starting to annoy me.

The problem is that the waveform in Sound Studio breaks up when scrolling sideways. It goes back to normal when zooming in/out, but it still slows me down a lot and causes me to miss stuff I would notice otherwise.

Here's an image of what I'm talking about:

Obviously the top one is the one with the problem visible while the bottom one shows how it should look like normally.

I've contacted Freeverse about this matter, but their help is just useless. I've deleted Sound Studio .plist files, reinstalled, repaired permissions, reinstalled Snow Leopard, updated everything, even tried with Sound Studio 4 trial, reset SMC and PRAM, tried on two different hard drives, with all possible RAM configurations (taking the other one out and changing the slots) and none of this has helped at all. Also the Apple Hardware Test couldn't find anything wrong with the computer. I had the last black MacBook before, but I didn't experience this problem with it, so I'm thinking that there's something wrong with my GPU on this MBP or Sound Studio just doesn't work as it should with this newer GPU.

So I'd like to know if anyone else with a 2010 13" MBP is suffering from the same problems or could it be that there's something wrong with my MBP's GPU or some other part?

If you've got Sound Studio or have got any ideas what might be up with this, please post and let me know.
