Cubase hung for a while, but I saw no need to u/l the entire vid. It’s only the last minute of the hang. Notice the .xml file being written at :53 - I of course have no idea what took so long, but I am thinking that it is possible that that might have something to do with the issue. This may not be new info; you peeps in Hamburg might already know this, but wanted to make you aware just in case.
I filled out a tech form, and requested that the info be fwd along to whoever should get it, so this may be redundant.
Kindly have a look at the vid; although it doesn’t really say all that much, maybe it will shed some light on the issue if you guys dont already have a handle on it.
Probably symptom rather than cause? defaults.xml is where most of your preferences are stored.
What may be strange is the size. Yours is 8MB. Mine on my work laptop is 632KB. Be interesting to see what else is in yours?
As an aside, the laptop of which I speak has NEVER once hung on exit from C6 or C5. And uses nearly all the same plugins as on my main DAW, other than paid plugins which I only have on the main DAW for obvious reasons.
Someone reported in a thread in the C5 forum not too long ago that when he examined what was happening on the hang he noticed Cubase trying to write to Prefs over and over and over. Haven’t seen anything come of his report, though.
Studying for N+ so I don’t have time to sus the link, ATM.
