The 12.0.30 update addresses a couple of performance issues that occurred when closing the application. We have also improved the performance when working with Vienna Pro Ensemble and other areas.
We will continue to investigate performance issues on specific systems, and we will provide additional improvements with the next updates. Therefore, we still rely on your reports.
Please let us know if you are still experiencing issues after the update to 12.0.30.
It’s too early for me to make any definitive ruling if the actual hang on shutdown problem, which I was seeing most (but not all) of the time in 12.0.10 and 12.0.20, has gone away on my system. However, in my short time of using 12.0.30, I have already seen the (assumedly related) problem that I was having in 12.0.0 where Cubase did not actually hang on shutdown, but I got the dialog box on the next startup that suggested it had, where it would also produce a freezedump.dmp file.
This is on Windows 10 (fully updated as far as I’m aware), with an Intel 5820k CPU (6 cores, 12 threads), 16 GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce GT 640 display adapter with two monitors, MOTU 828x interface (running on Thunderbolt 2). Here are some specifics of the session:
This was working with a project I’d been working on for long (typically 8-12 hours) sessions in 12.0.20. Interestingly, it had not been hanging on shutdown the last few days. However, for much of that time I’d had most of my instrument tracks frozen and disabled as I’d been working on vocals against a rough mix of those tracks in order to save performance while tracking the audio, and just leaving it that way for comping, tightening, and tuning. But I’d also been using audio inserts (3 Waves plugins most of the time) on the vocal tracks to help me judge things during comping and editing). Toward the end of last night’s session I had frozen all background vocal tracks, with only the lead vocal inserts remaining unfrozen, making a quick work mix with a few master bus plugins, then enabled all the frozen instrument tracks, and unfroze one specific track among those to work on editing and processing it further. The unfrozen track used UVIworkstation (with Acoustic Samples TelematicV3) through NI Guitar Rig 6 (fully updated). I then also sent that to an FX bus where I was trying out various plugins for adding effects during a solo section, and I put both of those tracks into a group bus to treat the combined signal… (FX I know were in the two additional tracks at that time included Arturia Flanger BL-20, PSP Echo, bx Rockrack V3 Player, PSP Saturator, IK TR5 Tape Machine M80, PSP Infinistrip, Waves Scheps Omnichannel. Some of those would have been disabled, though, and there might have been a few others that I’ve since deleted.) Cubase Pro 12.0.20 did NOT hang on shutdown last night.
So today I was continuing work on the project, mainly trying out different plugins in the send and group channels mentioned above, also doing some send and panning automation. At one point, though, I went to use my A-80PRO controller’s transport controls, and I realized I hadn’t turned it on. Turning it on with Cubase running did not make it work, so I saved the project, closed the project, then closed Cubase. Cubase did not (visibly at least) hang on shutdown. However, it did bring up the message on the restart suggesting it had.
I let Cubase send the actual freezedump.dmp file to Steinberg, but, in case it may be useful to anyone here, here is the information I saw from it in Windbg Preview, which shows the same sort of thing I have seen in recent real hangs in 12.0.20 at the top of the call stack (i.e. system calls with WaitForSingleObject referenced), but it also shows Guitar Rig 6 in the stack (and I have not seen plugins referenced in the call stacks I’ve looked at recently). It would not surprise me if there is some relationship between this issue on my system and NI plugins in that I pretty much always have a few instances of Kontakt 6, and often at least one instance of Guitar Rig 6, in my projects. And I will again note that all my NI plugins are up to date (at least as of yesterday’s check).
Here is the info from Windbg:

Hi! No changes in the latest version of Cubase regarding the jumping PEAK indicator (which I have to get used to, and I’m talking about the same latency settings I had in Cubase 11 i.e. about 12 ms in and out ) and very often when loading any sound in external VST plug-ins, PEAK jumps to red, which does not happen at all in C11 Pro. The last improvement I was hoping for in this release is a smooth addition of MIDI tracks during project playback, without stopping playback as it is in previous Cubase versions i.e. C11, C10 etc. I guess the only thing left is to turn off the Audio performance indicators and get on with making music.
I just tried an experiment to leave Cubase 12.0.30 running overnight, then I came back and quit it in the morning. As opposed to every previous Cubase 12 release, this time there was no hang on quit. macOS 12.4. I’ll keep an eye on it but it looks like a good sign. Thanks!
Installed the update yesterday and worked on a project with VEP for 2 hours: the improvement on my system is significant, as that particular template run smoothly for a couple hours, while, with 12.0.20 was pretty much unusable (it used to run for 15 minutes and then hang for the simplest operation).
Also, now bringing up the VEP connection window is instantaneous.
Very happy with VEP at the moment, going to test/work extensively in the next few days.
Thanks a lot for these fixes dear to me (and many of us composers)!
I’m on Monterey 12.4, Mac Pro 2013 (128 GB of ram).
One thing that doesn’t work anymore (that’s a VEP issue most likely and I wrote to their support) are the shortcuts which don’t get transmitted to Cubase anymore when working with the focus on VEP (but that’s been like that since 12.0.0)
Same. It was a tough wait but worth it in the end. Solid update!
Hello,
improvement : I can run Cubase in normal mode (not administrator) to have a properly exit from Cubase , great !
performances : I have a quite long time between the start when popup 1 disappears and the opening of the Hub. + the opening of a project (even light) is quite long here (as in 12.0.20, 12.0.10 and 12.0.)
Hi All,
Im running Cubase Pro with 12.0.20 (running on Win 10 64Bit with a UR824 interface) i was having near constant freezing and crashes (which I have never had ever before - Im a user since Cubase SX). And now with 12.0.3 the issues appear to be persisting (i have raised a support ticket and still hoping for a support session to resolve this).
For example - when Im finished working on a session, I save it and press “close”… its almost a guarantee then that the entire application crashes (and i did not press “Quit”). I had hoped that 12.0.3 would fix this but its still happening.
However - in 12.0.2 i was also having other issues (audio dropping completely, moving all the way to the left speaker only and maxing out on the master buss) - but that hasn’t happened yet at least with 12.0.3 so hopefully those issues are fixed… the crashing though is still a major issue.
Greetings from Ireland!
John

So I downloaded and installed 12.0.30 using the download assistant.
As soon as I open Cubase it crashes and when I open it again it gives the error being caused by the iZotope Ozone 9 Imager.vst3.
Given that Ozone is one of our most used plugins during both production and epsecially mastering this is nothing less than a disaster for us?

YET ANOTHER CRASH - here we go again…
To get past the crash I just reported for Ozone 9 Imager, I renamed Ozone 9 Imager.vst3 to Ozone 9 Imager.vst3.old which allowed Cubase to boot past it (still leaves Imager unuasable which is unacceptable.
During startup Cubase now crashes at

AND ANOTHER CRASH / ISSUE
Following on from my wave Clarity issue reported above,
I removed Waves Clarity and restarted Cubase this time it froze while it was loading…
I can tell you that Ozone Imager & Waves Clarity worked perfectly in Cubase 11 (as do all Izotope and Waves plugins).
And when I was having issues with CB 12.20 which Tech Support promised would be fixed in 12.30, when ever
I booted 12.20, NO plugins caused 12.20 to crash or freeze.
This tells me that yet again the issue is this latest update.
This is joke Steinberg - you make have fixed some issues for some users but you have made it
worse for others - totally unbelievable…
As a professional commercial studio I am tired of this situation, never before have I ever
had such a long run of issues with any DAW or company.
I paid for CB 12 n4 months ago and I have still not be able to use it and the so called
maintainence releases have not cured any of my issues, and this one has created a whole load
of new ones.
Steinberg I put you on a legal notice - your program is not fit for purpose and was missold
as fully working software, which it clearly is not. You have had for months to put the faults
right and you have failed.
You can not say that I am making this up as I am attaching the .dmp files plue if you wish I can provided screen capture video.
There is .dmp file for the freeze but it is 0 bytes and this forum would not allow me to uoload it.
What are you going to do about it to put this issue right for me?
If you want me to go through the European Commission I will, if not it will be a UK court claim.
Your choice.
.
And did you fix the issues with Kontakt as your tech support promised the update would???
And another crash…
This time it did not say what caused it to crash but here is the .dmp file.
Cubase 12.0.30.286 64bit 2022.6.10 18.40.54.224.dmp (1.5 MB)
We are not having any issues running Kontakt 6 in CB Pro 12.0.30 here in our studios. Nor are we having any issues with Izotope plugins crashing CB Pro 12.0.30.
Are all your plugins upgraded to the most recent versions? Both NI and Izotope have issued updated plugins over the past couple months.
I hope this helps you.
Same here. Kontakt handles anything we throw at it without issue.
We also have Ozone Imager and Clarity VX Pro and both of them work as expected. No crashes on startup or anywhere else.
This is on two i7 6700k machines running Windows 10 latest.
We have Cubase Pro and Nuendo both at 12.0.30 and all our plugins and VSTi’s are fully updated.
That won’t work Kenny. I feel for you but legal action isn’t the way forward. I would try reporting the problems to the plug in manufacturers too.
And yet another crash, this time caused by simply closing a project.
Cubase 12.0.30.286 64bit 2022.6.10 21.37.54.616-freezedump.dmp (875.7 KB)
I do not know where you are from but in the UK we have laws that state anything sold (including software) must be fit for purpose.
You are wrong, and I am not going to debate this because, due to the way this forum keeps splitting the issues on to different threads - people who read a post do not know the whole back story, legal action is the ONLY way forward.
This crash is in RC-20 Retro Color. Have you checked with them? https://www.xlnaudio.com/support
Well good luck - let us know you get on.
No because it did not crash in cn 12.20
You can’t assume that there is a new fault in Cubase. It could still be the plugin has a bug which has been exposed by a legitimate change to Cubase.
