> [@jffj](#): > > I just upgraded to Elements 9.5 and recorded a vocal track and noticed there’s no waveform showing, just a straight line. The recorded audio plays back loud and clear. I checked the audio editor and saw that it was set to show waveform. I’ve tried this with other projects and the same thing happens. Not sure what to do. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks As Roel says, it has been mentioned elsewhere, longest thread, I think, here: > **[\[CAN-12379\] Cubase 9.5 not showing recording waveforms](https://forums.steinberg.net/t/can-12379-cubase-9-5-not-showing-recording-waveforms/99680)** > > Hi, when I record audio the waveform doesn’t show, only when I open the audio editor I can see the waveform (as you can see in the picture). Is anyone else having this issue? any idea for a fix? \[Mod Edit\] KB article:... As yet I’ve not, however, seen any acknowledgement from Steinberg that it is an issue, presumably as it does not happen on all Windows machines (only on one of mine for instance). I think it’s mainly an NVIDIA issue but not certain of that either. I’m using the following as a semi-soltuion: Go to Preferences-Record-Audio and un-tick “Record Audio images during Record” then at least after recording the Waveform images do show up…still not ideal but better than nothing I think. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.steinberg.net/t/no-waveform-visible/100093)._
