I often put my Cubase into a “no driver” state overnight, or when I just want to give it a rest while I work on something else in another program for a few hours. This doesn’t seem possible in Wavelab. If not, feature request?
Or maybe Wavelab doesn’t process while at rest and it’s not a problem. I do think the driver gets released in the background, which is good. But I need to test that.
Cubase, however, does process while at rest. The only reason I know that to be true is because in the “no driver” state, there’s no heat coming off my laptop keybed.
Thanks.
