meters on the new plugins (didn’t test it on old ones yet) are freezing every few seconds
reproduce:
open quadrafuzz 2/multiband compressor /vst bass amp / play some audio through it,meters freezes randomly
(seems yesterday it was alright or i didn’t notice it than)
I tested on my system, and I do not have the freezing meters issue, but I see a huge latency between the sound and the meters - half a second minimum. I tried them individually, and chained, same result. I’ll play with buffer settings and see if it improves.
me too… now the meters shows all the time and no freeze (don’t know why )
i did some experiments,with Asio guard on/off and different buffer settings and the latency on meter display present all the time but with steinbergs own plugin only, new and old !
checked few third party plugins and their meters reacts as should be !!!
(i edited the title for the latency )
here it says update to the latest graphic card driver to solve latency on control room meters (it solved the control room meter problem for someone in other forum)
maybe this should solve the plugins meter latency also ?? (altough my control room meters are OK)
(i will update later, not in front of my DAW right now)
I had this problem too, and after a restart of the computer, worries disappeared. Try to restart your computer, or reinstall cubase 8 and restart the computer.
I had the meter lag in the control room and in built-in plugins. Graphic (nvidia) update on running system didn’t solve this for me. But additional Win7 updates and multiple system re-starts helped, followed by re-adjustments of the meter-‘velocity’ (dB/sec) in the preferences. Running fine now. Like it.
I’ve made an official issue report with video on this bug here:
If this is indeed the same bug, please leave a comment on the thread so that SB can put it in the confirmed issues list. As far as I can tell, this appears to be a bug unique to certain PC configurations, but so far not sure what’s causing it.
