Hi all,
I've been having a problem lately when trying to mix some of my more recent projects. I must say that these are the first that I'm mixing on my new system (specs below). I'm using two studiomix consoles into sfp via luna/pulsar IO. I use the devices created by digilogue to confert the studiomix signals to midi cc's. I routed them to cubase and then back to the sfp mixer to be able to record all automation in midi tracks. When I start mixing everything goes ok for the first two-three minutes and then suddenly the PC freezes. I doesn't respond to anything anymore, even Ctrl-ALt-Del doesn't do a thing.
Does any of you had a similar experience or/and have a solution?

P.S.
Specs:
p4 3.0 800fsb
Asus p4p800 deluxe
2*512MB Kingston Hyperx 3500 at 2/2/2/5
2*Seagate HD Baracuda V
XP Pro SP1
I only have a PulsarI and a LunaII as PCI cards.
PC freezes on MIDI load??? HELP
hi Valium,
it could be a midi issue with your 2 controllers flooding the interface, you've probably read about CW midi probs already.
But your setup is pretty 'hot stuff' in the true sense of the word.
It could be a heat issue as well. I've tested a Barracuda V laying on the table with free airflow around. Within a regular drive bay a couple of them produces a lot of (additional) heat filling your case.
good luck, tom

thx for the reply but I can tell you that it definately is not heatrelated, I have a couple of case fans running and the PC is in a cool room (18C) cpu never gets hotter than 48 C and mobo temp doesn't get hotter 30C after using the setup for a while the HD don't feel that warm to the touch. So my guess is I'm actually flooding the CW cards. Any solution? workaround?
