freezes while working on a project?
Hi Everyone, I've been living with this problem for a minute now, it just doesn't make sense:
I'm running PTHD2 pci on a dual processor amd, 4 gigs ram, the computer is good enough to run this for sure. I have the amd timing fix on there as well. I've got 18 tracks and about 6 auxes in a project i'm working on. There ARE plugins on, nothing crazy, a few waves, mostly the digi eq plugins, as i'm still tracking and wanted to just get a good sound to inspire me while I work. I'll be playing back a file and then i open a plugin that's already on the track, and it'll freeze. I have to restart. I'll then bring it back up, and I'll try to just change the input on a channel to record, and it'll freeze. It's frozen while just zooming in while playing. I've created a new channel once, saved it, then started playing and it then froze. I restarted the computer and I was able to record on the new channel without a problem. Has anyone had similar problems happen to them? Any ideas as to what the problem could be? It doesn't seem to be a trash preferences fix, it's a relatively new computer, new SATA hard drive.. I'm just at a loss. Thanks for any help! |

Re: freezes while working on a project?
Sorry for taking so long to reply, I'm building a new studio, buying a house and getting married in a month time frame.
I'm running 8.0.3 |

Frankly I would go back to 8.01 CS3 and see if its all good there. If so, then clone it and go to 8.03 and start ringing out the issues.

Re: freezes while working on a project?
That's my last ditch effort, I was hoping someone had already had this problem and figured this one out for me :)
No reason to re-invent the wheel on this one, unfortunately there are so many different reasons why this could be happening. I just don't want to hear "you should just buy a mac." |

Re: freezes while working on a project?
Just had it lock up on 16 tracks, no plugins. I am dying here!

Re: freezes while working on a project?
If you run XP, then I agree and would roll back to 8.0.1

I'll do that. I think all this mess started when I did the updates. I'll also post the sandra on Tuesday if 8.0.1 doesn't fix it for monday. Thanks!
