Good afternoon everyone. So here’s what I think the problem is...I use a Komplete Kontrol S88 keyboard, and it appears that the interface between the keyboard and any virtual instrument causes the freezing. Unless I hear other recommendations, my plan is to uninstall and then reinstall the KK softwa...

Yeah! I'm learning some hard lessons... anywy, onward!

Btw...my audio interface (someone inquired) is a AKAI EIE.

Thanks again eveyone!

Thank you all for your continued help! Very grateful! I have decided to take the advice of starting from scratch. I will rebuild the computer, testing all hardware along the way, and then add the DAW and each VI one at a time (I realize that this would of helped all along, but, as noted, I'm so eage...

With regards to my Virtual Instruments software and DAW: Cubase 10 Pro (have older versions back to Cubase 6) Native Instruments Spitfire Heavyocity Best Service Omnispeare some other stuff On my "old" computer I had all of VI on either a HDD drive (also contained C: drive data and DAW) or...

Okay - the first thing to note is, when troubleshooting a problem you need to just change one variable at a time and evaluate the impact. Right now, if you somehow manage to resolve the issue, you have no idea what step you took actually fixed the problem. So not exactly back at square one, but not...

OK, so here's what happened! Was able to play several different VI in stand alone. Opened Cubase 10 Pro, loaded three different instruments (Kontakt, Best Service, and Heavyocity). Was able to play and record all for about 10 minutes (nice melody :) and then crash/freeze, UGH! Steinberg quick contro...

Thanks guys! Yes, the recent crashes/freezes (that just happened today) correspond with the critical event notifications today. I've been writing them down, had three today in the last few hour, Ugh! So, I just took out the Blackmagic card, and will try my VI. Also, I had migrated my VI off the old ...

Hi there! I have some thoughts regarding your intention to deepen/improve yourself musically via music theory (some already noted by others): - It is always good to have a basic understanding of music theory for the simply freedom it gives you to explore musical ideas, and to be able to communicate ...

Thanks! I think we're on to something. Given that this is my first build, I have a few questions: While I believe I am booting off the new M.2 drive (as my new C: drive and DAW), and given that I have the old C: drive installed (Windows 7 is still on it), I have not formatted the old drive in any wa...

Thank you! Yes, agreed, I will reset the CPU. The heat/performance monitoring program doesn’t indicate overheating, but worth a reset of the unit. I really appreciate all the feedback guys, and I will update later today or tomorrow. I’m so glad to find this community of fellow lovers of all thing te...

Thank you! I will give that a try. It sounds that given that my old C drive has Windows 7 on it, it may be affecting windows 10 on the new M.2 Drive? I really appreciate the insight, it makes a lot of sense.

Greetings! I've recently built a new PC computer specific for music recording. Here is the build: Case: Nanoxia Deep Silence 5 Rev.
