Re: failure to launch cubase

Hi BadMIster
I tried a different audio with cubase, specifically C-Media wave device. It worked fine no parasitic noise whatsoever. I monitored the sound thru the back of my Computer.
I didn’t download the Service pack Hotfix from the Microsoft website because of this warning by microsoft”

Re: failure to launch cubase

I think if you are worried you ought to contact Microsoft.

I tried a different audio with cubase, specifically C-Media wave device.

Sorry, I’m not familiar with C-Media?  What is that? And how does Cubase use it?

Re: failure to launch cubase

Hi again John,
Just popped back again with a few comments to share. First, please, do not compound your problem and start adding in things like a C-Media Wave device. On-board audio devices etc. are not suitable for use with Cubase. As suggested earlier, please use a suitable digital audio interface...in your case you have mLAN...and the device’s ASIO driver. Specifications for the type of hardware suitable use in Cubase are provided in your AI Getting Started guide. “504MB of RAM” for example is way below even the minimum spec.
Folks here can only take this so far. AI is a stable program and mLAN and its drivers are solid. Both will work well if the computer system meets specifications and is set up and running as required. Once you start getting into problems related to Windows or your computer itself though, my suggestion is to get some hands on help from someone locally, or contact Yamaha Customer Support and, by asking you questions directly one step at a time, they may be able to at least pin down where your problem lies....................frank
