Need help. Cubase is "running" too fast

Cubase
1

I’m not sure how to explain the problem except to say that Cubase “runs” too fast. For example, the tempo says 120 but runs at more like 131. Whenever I run any of my VST instruments through Cubase, Cubase will pitch the instruments almost an entire half-note higher.

I don’t have this problem with any other program, or when running VST instruments in stand-alone mode, so it is obviously something in Cubase that’s causing this problem. Does anyone know what’s causing this? Did I accidentally bump a setting somewhere? Please help if you can. My studio is shut down until I can solve this dilemma.

Thanks!

Sounds like a sample rate mismatch.

mismatching samplerate between Cubase and soundcard.

Thank you! That was indeed the problem. I just checked the project I was working on, and saw it was set at 44.1. Apparently I thought I had somehow globally set Cubase to 48kHz. Thanks again for your help! :slight_smile:
