cpu spike then no transport

Post by flextone »

Hi peeps

I have a problem in sx3 on this project i`m working on. at some point in the middle of track i get stuttering which stops after two seconds, but then the transport buttons stop working and cubase just keeps playing and i can`t stop it. when the stuttering happens i see a jump in the cpu performance, but this didn`t happen yesterday with the same track! and i did not add any vst plugs or anything. the specific point has a lot of cc`s which go to reaktor, but thats it, otherwise the performance is at about 15% . my pc is a brand new core duo 6400 and my board is a luna ll.

any ideas why this is happening?

I don't know why this is happening (sorry), but if you mute the track which sends all those CC messages, does the problem go away?

well, i can only check tommorow, but the last time this happend it was due to an audio event with waves ir1 on offline processing, and i fixed it by removing the offline process (even though the cpu wasn`t that high otherwise)

is the waves plugin a crack?
that would be the first and most likely cause.
don't do offline processes while the sequencer is in playback.....

i didn`t process while playing garyb. i never do that. anyhow, it turns out it was a really stupid thing: there was a tiny tiny loop range selected at that point , it`s cool now. i didn`t know you can make loops that samll in the project window.

thanx anyway for your help
