Cubase

Hello,

I bought Cubase and download install and start for the first time. But I get this error: The application was terminated with an error while excepting the following file:/usr/lib\dyld

dyld(551.5)

And when loading it ask for rescan Waves Audio.

Also how can I open Cubase without open the Waves plugins.

I have High Sierra OS.

Can please someone help me?

Hi and welcome to the forum,

Make sure, your Waves plug-ins are up to date, please. If the crash persist, get in contact with Waves, please.

Is there also a way how I can start Cubase without Waves?

Hi,

In the Safe Start Dialog, you can disable all 3rd party plug-ins. Or you can uninstall Waves or rename the the plug-ins folder to make sure, Cubase skip the folder while scanning.

The strange thing is if I deactivate all 3rd party plug-ins I still can’t open Cubase. When I disable in the pop-up safe start menu, it loads plug-ins after that Cubase indicates that cubase has shut down, and stopped unexpectedly.

Hi,

I see, I just realised, you are on macOS 10.13… This is not supported system. It’s a known issue, Cubase crashes while start. Search the forum, please.

This is the main thread, I was referring to.

Many thanks!!

Should I uninstall Cubase first? Or just download the older Cubase file and install it and overwrite the current Cubase?

Hi,

You have to uninstall Cubase 11.0.40/41 first. MacOs wouldn’t install an older version over the newer one.

Here you can download Cubase 11.0.30, which also officially doesn’t support macOS 10.13, but it works.

Many Thanks!!!
