If it's a performance problem, the main setting for that is pitch range (smaller / more specific is better).
Are you running imitone side-by-side with your DAW on Mac, or using a multi-client ASIO driver on Windows? In these cases, if there is a mismatch in buffer size or sample rate between the two apps, the sound card can go out of sync causing a terrible stuttering effect. Usually that issue goes away when trying out a few different combinations of samplerate/buffersize settings in your DAW.
