Or maybe it’s high load? But if so how did Hans Zimmer managed to write his 100-piece orchestra music in the era of 2-core Intels with spinning drives?
30 audio tracks playing simultaneously. Cubase runs from M1 drive and project is on SSD drive (both are new and fast models).
It was doing fine until I added 6 background vocal tracks which were split from one continuous looped recording (just split each take into a separate track). Not sure if this has something to do with it. Does Cubase have trouble reading separate parts of the same file simultaneously?
I was thinking, if you could sort the Task Manager view by Disk usage. To click to the Disk column to see, what application is reading/writing the most. Maybe some background process is reading/writing much more than Cubase.
