… öh, what? No Metering? I cannot confirm. Do I miss something?
Which ARA Extension are you running? Are those clicks while a loop? Or while playback? Can you reproduce it with a simple project? Can I get access to it?
I cannot reproduce none of these 2 here on my side (with SpectraLayers One as ARA extension in use). Could you try in Cubase Safe Start Mode [Disable preferences], please?
Melodyne Studio 5.1 here. There’s been clicks and pops when Cubase plays/passes over ARA boundries and no metering showing at playback since the beginning. (It was the same in Cubase 10 and 10.5 with prior versions of Melodyne Studio).
I will try in Cubase Safe Start Mode when time permits and check if there is any difference.
Another major annoyance just emerged - when I try to add Melodyne as an extension to an audio region in Cubase 11 - Melodyne opens up but is stuck on “Preparing Data” forever (nothing gets transferred and nothing shows up in Melodyne). It worked 30 min ago so just to be sure I opened Cubase 10.5 and tried it - Melodyne worked as expected. I reopened v11 - Melodyne gets stuck on “Preparing Data”.
I also downloaded Melodyne 5.1.1 (that was incidentally just announced) to see if it made any difference - the problem persists in Cubase 11 but works fine in Cubase 10.5.
I also have disappointing experience with my first "real world " Project and ARA in C11.
I can confirm Clicks and Pops at transition from ARA Parts (spectral Layers) to non ARA Parts of the same File.
When cutting an ARA Part later, I have sometimes the second Part with double Volume.
I also have one ARA Part become silent, although the waveform was visible.
Render as new file resulted in silence.
As I use more and more ARA, System becomes sluggish.
Excellent that it is working for you now. Metering? I already replied to you, It is working for me and everybody else. I guess you are doing something special? We need find out. Or we are talking about another metering? Can you give me some screenshots? Project? Which ARA Extension are you running? Any hint is useful
I am not using anything special. I am using Melodyne 5.1.1 as an ARA extension.
In the image below I took a snapshot while audio was playing but there is no VU metering in the channel strip or in the console on that channel which is really confusing. It has been like this since forever. Same thing in Cubase 10.5 with previous and current version of Melodyne as well. Same thing happens with Spectralayers - no VU metering when activated.
… yes, sorry. stupid sentence.
… back to your problem. Is there a plug.in around with a latency? Can you zip that project and send it to me? m.spork (at) steinberg.de
Thanks for your replies, however I have to run right now, but I’ll be back in the studio after lunch tomorrow and will try to get something to you. Btw, this happens even if I start a brand new project with Cubase in Safe mode with all plugins disabled, import an audio file and add an ARA extension so I very much doubt it has anything to do with my projects or plugins.
