Waves plugins crashing Cubase on Windows on Arm

As I said, I did send the dump file to waves, but they just gave me the same answer that they don’t support WOA

from what I saw in the screenshot above it was WaveShell 13. They are on 16. You know what they are going to tell you…
Update to the latest version..

(if you want to make sure, download the latest Demo versions)

mac user here (I know you are on Windows) I have some v13 (Abbey Road collection) and although they are installed on Mac Sonoma (not compatible, they can cause problems. I have updated the 4 that I use the most from that collection to the latest version and no problems.

Actually, the version 13 waves plug-in (H-Verb) works pretty well, it’s the version 16 plug-in that gives me the most trouble. Shoeps Omni channel.

And actually, I have some version 14 plug-ins, I’ve tried them all, and it doesn’t seem to matter which version, they all freeze cubase

Canary really is an unstable version of Windows. You get a new OS every week. In fact, the name is now changing to “Experimental” to make the nature of it even more clear.

I run it on my PCs, and I run into random things that just stop working for a week as a result.

I’m getting that! Is there a way to get off of canary channel without reinstalling everything?

Unfortunately, no. That’s actually why my main PC is still on Canary: I just don’t feel like doing the reinstall right now.

There was some discussion about being able to move off of Insider builds without paving your PC, but I haven’t checked to see when/if/how those will be implemented. So it’s possible that this changes in the not-so-distant future.

Thanks for this. Funny, I went with Canary because I was hoping for a Windows ASIO Driver, that was October 2024 and there still isn’t one so I guess the whole Canary thing was pointless…

We were going to release the ASIO driver to Canary. But after finding out that Insider branches had almost no musicians or music tech nerds in them (hence the MIDI bugs that weren’t found in 2 years of Insider and preview releases), we have decided to just make the ASIO driver preview installable. It won’t act as a class driver in that case (you’ll have to manually pick it), but it’ll work on retail supported Windows 11 without any Insider requirement.

Yamaha is finishing up implementation of some features needed by a subset of USB Audio Class 2 devices. We expect to be able to release an installable preview around August/September.

LOL. Forum wants to make sure there are no durable relationships here. :wink:

Great! Actually, I did a clean install of Windows 11 and now my Waves plugins (all versions) work fine again!

Hi!

Have anyone with a Snapdragon equiped Pc Done a dpc latency test and if, what’s the result?

I can’t find a latency checker that runs on Windows Arm, sorry.
