It just started happening on a project I’ve been working on a lot, and I’ve got a lot of work done on it without this happening. I opened it today, and several tracks (though not all) exhibit this exasperating behavior.
I have 8.5 build 69 - downloading update as we speak. The change in behavior is not update-related.
I have the same problem running Cubase 8.0.35 Build 565 (64 bit). I don’t really want to upgrade to 8.5 so am I stuck with this issue now ? If so I have to say this is a joke !
For some reason this issue started happening when I recently opened up a 3-4 week old track I’m working on. Was fine previously.
I have also been having this problem where tracks mysteriously stop making any sound. Odd. I just recently got Cubase 8.5 after using 6.5 for quite a while. These bugs are why I loathe to upgrade any software that is working well. I am downloading the latest update (here for those interested http://www.steinberg.net/en/support/downloads/cubase_pro_85.html ) and hope this fixes the issue. Will report back after using the new version for a while, hopefully with good news!
Unfortunately, the only known fix for this is to upgrade. To me, that’s not a “bug”, its forcing people to pay extra for a faulty product. The “support” I received from Steinberg on this matter borders on the ridiculous. Its such a shame they cannot take their Support seriously and understand what handling issue requests better would mean to the image of the company.
Well, the update seemed to fix the bug for a while, but now the same thing is happening again even with the latest version. Very frustrating. Simply don’t have time to have to go through each track to see if it is going to actually sound when played.
Oh, dear. I thought it was safe to upgrade to 8.5 in a few weeks, regarding this and other bugs that had been reported as being fixed. I hope it turns out to be an unrelated issue.
as u see above its a problem that are repeating for years again and again
now i dont know what to do, this project is very important for me,
As soon as I open the project
after 30 seconds or so, the audio stops completely.
There is a sign of the Level meter, but there is no sound at all.
2020, same issue. Man, Steinberg gets worse an worse everyday. I don’t even bother trying to reach out support as they blatantly make it as hard as possible for us users to contact them. Lame. I still use it becuase it cost me a lot, and for the OMF support and MIDI workflow, but I really can’t wait for the sickle guys to cover this and say goodbye to all things Steinberg once and for all.
Just had this problem for the first time with plugins. If I turn off read automation the plugins work, but without the automation I just spent all day working on. If I turn on read automation, nothing. This thread is not encouraging!
