I’m having troubles with Windows 8 pro and Cubase 7.0.x.
Only getting hick-ups and stutter.
No problems with Win 7 64 bit with all Cubase 7 versions.
No problems with Win 8 pro and Cubase 6.5.3.
Using all the latest drivers for MR816x and CC121.
So the problem must be in Cubase 7 !
When I go to Devices - Device Setup - VST Audio System, I disable:
Multi processing, Asio-guard and Activate Steinberg Audio Power Scheme (disabled)
Further audio Priority = Normal
With this configuration I can play projects for 99% stutter free,
but this can’t be the solution.
Hi.
Sorry to hear you have trouble with your system.
I’m running the same Os 64 bit and Cb 7.0.2 but with 8 cmc’s,
1 Novation Remote Zero SL, 1 Machine, 1 Virus TI2
and also a SSL Alpha link running 32 channels in and out
in real time and all this without any issues whatsoever.
Is the MR816X Usb-powered? And have you checked that there isn’t any system
conflicts?
Hope you solve the problem though
Edit: Sorry, I didn’t read you ran your system 99.9% of the time hassle free…
So what’s happening when that 0.1% occur? Do you have a Usb connected camera or other
unit that only “wake up” randomly?
When I first started working on W8, I also had clicks and pops all of the time.
I turned out the issue was with the generic W8 firewire driver.
Once I installed the old Windows 7 generic driver, the problem went.
But then again: if this would be the case with you, the problem would also occur in C6.54 I guess.
Had problems with windows 8pro, Cubase 7.0x and MR.
How did I solve it:
-turn off MR and CC, only turn on when I mention.
-made a clean install Windows 8pro on my pc.
updated all hardware drivers (mainboard, graphic card).
update Windows 8 pro.
download NET Framework 3.5 including 2.0 and 3.0 and install and check for updates.
-Installed Cubase 7.0.0 64 bit (don’t start Cubase)
-Installed Cubase 7.0.2 64 bit (don’t start Cubase)
-Installed latest driver CC (CC121 V174 win64)
-Installed latest driver MR (MR V174 win64)
Turn on CC and windows will install driver.
Turn on MR and windows will install driver.
-locate your MR V174 win64 directory on your harddisk.
go to utility and run ysfwutility, change IEEE1394 buffer size to Large, click ok and restart computer.
-go to Configuration - System - Device manager - IEEE 1394 Host controller.
right-click on Host Controller and click -update driver software,
click -Browse my computer for driver,
click -Let me pick from a list…
choose 1394 OHCI Compliant Host Controller
click -next (when finished restart your computer)
start Cubase 7.0.2
click devices - devices setup
vst audio system, Audio priority = boost, activate Multi processing, Asio guard and activate stenberg audio
power scheme.
click yamaha steinberg FW ASIO - control panel and change asio buffer size to 1024.
close - apply and ok.
This works for me !!!
