Update:
Easy to fix and bring back from the Rack menu. But anyways there seems to be sth wrong. The Rack “Hardware” is missing in Mixer 1. Mixer 2 and 3 have this option to choose. Strange, looks like Mixer 2 has now to become my Mixer 1
This update for sure killed Mixer 1. The behaviour is also strange. When you expand “Routing” the expanded “Inserts” windows will close.
Second, solution found. You have to untick “Expanded Rack Exklusiv” (hope this is the correct engl. translation) its working again.
Anyways, for any reason Mixer 1 is the target for making trouble by this update.
From my ride with Cubase it is ALWAYS the prefs that get hosed up and have some kind of incompatibility with the new version. Im in the habit of trashing my prefs and starting over with a new version and the problems like that which are described go away
I once had that on C9. Had to go back al the way to C6 to load it. Would not in C7, 7.5, 8, or 8.5. After saving in 6 it loaded again in C9 and worked ever since till finished.
I was thinking if you could track down the plugin that causes the crash, then you could inform about it to steinberg. It does not help much if you just say “9.5 projects crash in C10”. Since my projects open up fine in C10, even those I’ve made with C7.5 so you must have some plug-in in use that causes the crash. It would help greatly to find out what it is.
Well i guess i could spend time to track down why it crash, but isnt that steinbergs job? To not release something that crash all the time?
When i loaded a lexicon plugin it crashed. Thats how much i been trying. I will continue to work in 9.5.
Oh yea i almost forgot. I sent them a dumpfile the day after they release 10 cus mine crashed.
I got an answer earlier this week when they sent me this.

Thanks shanabit - I think it’s very badly worded but you’re quite right. I’ll pass this info on, I’m Cubase 10’d up, but someone on another forum was asking where it had gone.
The question is, why that works and what Steinberg messed up in C10? Also, if you set compatibility mode to Windows 8, projects do load. There must be something wrong on Steinberg’s side. No doubt!
