We are happy to announce the release of the second maintenance update for SpectraLayers 12, version 12.0.20.
This update offers several issue resolutions and improvements, including full GPU acceleration on Windows for the Unmix Song and Unmix Soundtrack modules.
If you need the functionality right now, fine, otherwise I’d maybe wait for the “Super” versions of those cards as well, since they’ll apparently have much more VRAM, which is really important for AI applications!
Is there any news on the “lingering old clips” issue when working through ARA in Nuendo?
(There is this problem that even if you make extensions permanent or remove them from the clips, when you use SL again, old clips will still be there like if they were active, and sometimes SL would confuse the clips and show you an old one when you open a new one.)
I’d like to know that it has been solved before I upgrade.
Disappointing result here with Unmix Song.
12 mins 39 secs to Unmix a 5min instrumental track using GTX 3080 in Win 11 23H 3.9GHz Intel CPU.
Spikes of activity on GPU but mostly unused.
Hello, is anyone else having similar problems with the current update 12.0.20?
Unmix Song reliably crashes SpectraLayerers 12.0.20 after about a minute. Both in the standalone version and in Cubase with ARA!
It works perfectly with 12.0.10!
If I only use the CPU, it works with 12.0.20, but it takes longer than with 12.0.10!
Spectralayers 12.0.10 worked fine with (limited) GPU mode for Unmix Song on my Nvidia 3050.
12.0.20 crashes every time in the same configuration. Besides that, it shows slower estimated conversion time before the crash than 12.0.10.
The update works fine (and a bit faster than before) on my Notebook with AMD eGPU.
In both cases, before the progress bar appears and processing begins, a blank startup window hangs on screen unusually long (roughly 10-15 seconds or so).
I’m getting tired of being a beta tester for SpectraLayers! The release notes say that GPU usage in Windows is now working. It worked for me with 12.0.10, but now it doesn’t!
What’s this garbage? Doesn’t anyone test the updates before release?
Unmix Song works without issues on my PC (RTX 3060 Ti, Studio Driver 580.97). At least, the issue doesn’t seem to affect all systems the same way. The crash might also be caused by the Nvidia driver. The recent ones have actually been quite unstable when used with GPU-heavy applications.
I also get the blank progress dialog, though.
@Cubase-Erklaerbaer It was tested successfully during the beta phase on several NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. Unfortunately there’s a wide variety of drivers and hardware so it’s impossible to test them all, it would rather points to conditions external to SpectraLayers in that case.
