This isn’t happening on all projects, just one in particular. I thought for sure that it was the new plug-ins I’ve been using, but after deactivating them all – and then deleting them entirely from the project, I still get the dreaded “Cubase 8 has stopped working” message on mixdown everytime. Is it possible for plug-ins to interfere after they’ve been removed? Maybe they corrupted the file? I don’t know… project plays fine otherwise.
I’ve deactivated/deleted every plug-in in the project
Changed my buffer settings
Cleared preferences (does that even matter in 8?)
Cleared any automation in use
Got the same problem as you described, have you ever found the solution?
I wonder wether it could be a 32 bit plugin that messes up the mixdown on a 64 bit system… Had problems with the new Kontakt 5 because it had the 32 bit dll in the 64 bit cubase vst file. It caused kontakt 5 to say there is no space though only a few instruments were loadet.
Now the thing that is new are a few new plugins… But what can be bad about them if they officially belong to kontakt 5? Everything works fine till I want to mixdown, then it suddenly breaks up at around 50 oercent… Really would love a solution for this…
I had the same issue on one project only. I have an all 64 bit system and plug-ins on Windows 7. I finally got around it by exporting as a new project. I could then treat the new project as a 2 track mixdown to master. Every other approach appears to lock up the computer. I never found another way to get this project to mix.
