Freezing on loading mix console on certain projects

Cubase gets stuck at “loading mix console” then freeze, eventually crashing the whole system. I’ve never had this issue before. The project works fine in safe mode. Here’s the freeze dmp file if anyone can help:

That’s not a file.

Are you referring to the screen shot? if so, there’s actually nothing on track audio 42, its empty. eve when i open older versions of the project it stilll hangs just on a different channel or vst/i

I’m refering to the text you pasted from the crash log. That’s only a tiny portion of the data.

Oh, that’s all the data I got from the debugger. I’m going to run it again, maybe I jumped the gun and copied too soon .

It’s the crash log istelf that is needed, not the analysis.

my last 3 here:

Cubase 12.0.52.393 64bit 2023.1.11 10.57.17.596-freezedump.dmp (1.9 MB)
Cubase 12.0.52.393 64bit 2023.1.11 2.55.13.375.dmp (1.1 MB)
Cubase 12.0.52.393 64bit 2023.1.10 22.33.03.848-freezedump.dmp (1.7 MB)

Unless the files are too big to upload to the forum, please just paste them into your reply, to avoid creating uneeded steps for anyone who might wish to help.

I’ll do it for you this time.

The crash reports point to a couple plugins.

MODULE_NAME: CS_80_V3
IMAGE_NAME:  CS-80 V3.dll

IVe updated and then removed the plugins but the issue still persists. Im just going to remove all plugins from the project and start over

also, Ive entered the project using “Disable 3rd party plugins” & for some reason Cubase VSTi’s such as retrologe and padshop are hidden.The only cubase VSTi showing is HALion sonic SE Is this a bug? - Maybe i need a new thread for this?

It could be more than one issue, so the new crash log is needed. Saying, “the issue” is not enough. You might have multiple issues.

Also, it’s important to understand that a crash can be caused by the plugin, or something else which in turn causes the plugin to crash.

Troubleshooting relies on ruling out elements that are not causing a problem. One hopes that after doing that (maybe over several iterations) one is left with the culprit.

Windows Crash logs can be analyzed more fully than WinDbg Preview can do, but only the developer has the correct tools to do that. For us lay-people WinDbg is good for exposing a crashing plugin or driver. But if there’s really a bug in the Cubase code itself, the devs have to research it.

When troubleshooting, try to defer drawing conclusions about what you see. In this case, I would presume that for whatever programming or development reason, the devs chose to allow only Halion Sonic SE to run when 3rd party VSTs are disabled. That’s seems like a good idea actually, since there are fewer elements.

Finally - Did you check that you are running a current version of CS-80? If it’s the Arturia one, my system shows V4: image
