I’ve found a reproducible issue affecting ARA editors inside Cubase
When Cubase system scaling is set to anything other than default, any ARA plugin (SpectraLayers, Melodyne, etc.) shows visual artifacts such as:
incomplete redraw
frozen or missing parts of the display
partial updates when zooming or scrolling
If I set Cubase scaling back to default the problem disappears completely.
Cubase’s internal scaling (e.g., -25%) creates the behavior, so it seems that ARA follows only the Windows scaling and not the host’s scaling.
Set Windows scaling to 125%
Set Cubase scaling default
Load any ARA plugin
No Visual artifacts
Windows 100% or 125% Cubase -25% or +25% problem back.
It would be great if this could be forwarded to the team responsible for ARA integration, since the issue is easy to reproduce and affects multiple hosts and plugins.
Thanks.
