Thank you so much for the detailed response. You can’t imagine how much I appreciated it. I checked off the sysex boxes and, at least for now, it seems to have done the trick.
My question is, why? What does sysex have to do with stuck MIDI notes?
My PC is fairly powerful at a core 3, 16 gig ram. It should handle what I’m trying to do and as far as streaming massive libraries like EWQL and the new Komplete stuff, it’s been doing fine. For the most part, Cubase works fine. But the stuck notes and the several crashes per day (usually from older VSTs, even though I do have them bridged with Jbridger) get annoying. The stuck notes have been awful of late. Don’t understand why. I’m actually wondering if it’s since I updated to 7.0.5. Because I didn’t have this problem when I first installed the software.
Just so you know, I’m an old timer. Started before MIDI even existed with old Moog and ARP synths. I go back to the late 70s with gear. I can even program modular synthesizers. That’s why this problem is so frustrating for me. I’ve never had these issues in 35 years. Not even with my first MIDI synth which was a Yamaha DX7.
Anyway, thank you again for the assistance. Turns out it was Cubase, albeit a setting that I still don’t understand why it would cause stuck notes.
I’ll keep an eye on it to see if the problem returns. I’ve learned from experience that things can break for no reason at all.
