MIdi tracks becoming silent, at random times, please help.

[nikhollis]

HI. I am running Cubase 10.0.15 through a fairly high spec Windows 10 set-up through a Focusrite 4pre Clarett interface.

At random times whilst working on/listening to a project, the sound of midi tracks will simply stop playing (even if I do not touch ANYTHING) whilst the audio continues. It is still visible, and there is no change of setting or routing.

I have just clean re-installed Cubase, and it still does it.

I can copy the midi part into a brand new midi track (it is Groove Agent with a preset I have, but the same thing happens with a Kontakt piano track - therefore is surely not a Groove Agent issue) and it works again, temporarily, before at some random point, deciding to not be audible. If I simply duplicate the track, it is silent, just like the one I copied from.

I am completely out of ideas on how to resolve this, or indeed what the problem could stem from.

Could it be a bug. A problem with the interface?

Help/ideas really appreciated.

I’m seeing a similar issue, only with audio tracks. Going to contact Steinberg support for this. Not certain what is going on but really strange.

Hey nikhollis, try the following link that Manike provided to me. In my particular case and at present, this didn’t work. But maybe my system is in a more advanced stage of the disease

But anyway, it has definitely worked for me in the past so maybe it could be your resolution as well.

Give it a shot. Good Luck!
