MR816 crashes? Please help me.

Hello,

When I open a big Cubase 5 project including 4 GB of VST plugins with Steinberg MR 816X ASIO drive, Cubase crashes. But Cubase can open the same project successfully when Creative ASIO driver is active!

My MR 816X is connected to the firwire PCI card with Texas Instruments chipset. I’ve installed all the latest firmware and updates for all devices & software.

How can Creative open the project but MR 816X cannot?? :open_mouth:

I found this by checking Cubase 5 crash report log. It says as below. What should I do?

A note: Cubase crashes only during opening the big project with Steinberg MR816X. When I load same plugins in a new project everything works & play good. But after saving and trying to open this project Cubase crashes (this is not happening on all projects but only on big ones).

But if I select Creative ASIO driver before opening this big project, it opens & plays.

I don’t understand that! Creative ASIO is better than Steinberg MR816X ASIO??

Please help me. I’ll have to change my sound card if I cannot solve this problem :frowning:
