I recently upgraded my computer to the following:
Gigabyte K8 Triton motherboard
AMD 64 Processor
1 gig of RAM
Prior to upgrading, cubase would "lock" up during a session. I have to Echo Laylas synchronized via word clock. The song would be playing and all of sudden I'd get a loud oscillator-sounding noise. All I had to do to get rid of it was minimize cubase then bring it back up.
Now, after the upgrade, I get 'glitches', mostly in the beginning of songs (it'll sound gittery). I've made sure that I have the Echo layla selected as my card; everything else is the same.
Here's what I think:
- It's possible that some of my RAM may have gone bad?
- Something may be going on with synching the two laylas...but I've had these laylas synched for a couple of years without problems, so I don't really think its this
- Or maybe I just need more RAM. The only problem with this is that I've been using the "performance monitor" (f12) and it doesn't spike. It's usually under 30.
- Lastly, is it a problem that windows sees Layla 1 as the main card, but Cubase sees Layla 2 as the main card?
The only other variable is that I am now using Waves platinum edition plugins. I imagine those take a lot of processing power.
Help please. Thanks.
