it has been a while since I had this recurring issue with Cubase 14, and it is becoming worse and worse, so I finally decided to get to the bottom of this.
I have attached screenshots and video of the situation, let me know if you need more information.
At the moment I am not able to use Cubase because of this.
Cubase: 14.0.41
Windows 11 Pro 25H2
Universal Audio Volt 1, Driver 1.2.0 Firmware 1.0.0
PS: I have the usage logging, but the forum does not let me upload it
You haven’t said anything about your workload… no. of tracks (audio, MIDI), VSTi’s, track / group plugins, master bus plugins, sends, how many group busses, etc. You don’t have to list every item but a summary would be useful.
Is this problem only happening on one project, or all of them?
You have 2 cores over 80% peaking to 90%. So yeah, too many heavy FX on master or in any single chain of process (track/group/master) can cause problems. I think I read the intels with e-cores can be worse with this…if that’s you maybe see if things get worse or better with e-cores and or hyperthreading disabled. Also always worth running latencymon to check if you might need to further optimise your computer.
