thanks for the info

 

Haven't seen a Studio one release for a while on sister site ! too hard to crack ?

 

There may be a fatal bug report and no release until it is fixed.

 

Agree. For example sidechain has been a disaster after version 5.02. What a bad joke for an expensive daw ...

see: https://bit.ly/3bFZGT4

 

Presonus even answered on facebook that they are aware of the issue but it is kind of hard to fix, anyone who need that feature should use an earlier version

 

I recently learned that bug here in this forum. Asked one of you guys something like "wait, that isn't like a too severe of a bug to not be fixed?". And the answer was the sad truth "it is too severe and it's not fixed", along with proves, YT videos about it.
Shame on you Presonus. I loved you so much for a long time. You broke my heart.

 

is there any dll related to that?? because you can replace the current one with the last working one and test if it works

 

The behavior of Presonus is ridiculous. Because there is no currently working version since October 20th when v5.1 was released! 6 months without a functioning sidechain and nobody noticed? They have no plan ...

 

Hi folks , I´m new here . I like both words of audiosex , so I want to contribute:

-Is anyone else having a stutter-cursor in SO 5.2.0 ? ( Start SO -open empty song -press play )
It jumps half a bar in not regular ways , and also some microstutter, but audio gets not affected.

installation went flawless. It even starts faster.
Every thing else works flawless .
Checked against SO 5.0.1. (all Sistersiteapps , same PC )
never had that Issue in any versions before.

I can live with it ,but its annoying.
Anyone have a clue ?

Win 10 all updates
GTX 1050
2 Monitors

 

i'm pretty sure you need to update the graphic drivers and anything of the system. i say this because a friend everytime he gets a problem with the gpu of his laptop (nvidia), he have to update the driver.

after that, there should be an option to put the graphic work to be done by the eGPU and not by any iGPU (if you happen to have one).

another thing you can give, are the complete specs of your computer, to know what else can be (in case if what i mentioned isn't the problem)

 

if you aren't dependant of any kind of special feature that your current daw gives you, try S1 or even switch to it shouldn't be a problem (regardless the things mentioned on other threads like the sidechain thing)

 

nothing should go wrong then

 

My guess is they f*cked up mixer while rewriting it for surround audio and dual mono pan support, and now it's hard to fix it without touching the rest of the stuff. I've seen some beta testers suggested that it is very likely that these options will be added in 5.5. So, if it is true(and considering the number of people talkiong about I have almost no doubts it is), I think they gonna fix sc in 5.5
But maybe we're lucky and they gonna find a way to fix it earlier.

By the way, there are lots of small bugs in 5.2 But I don't care :D I got used to it and I prefer this approach to Ableton and Cubase's - they fix it anyway and the rest works fine, so you can just ignore those options with bugs and/or find work-arounds until the fix is released.

 

Thanks for the hint . So I did update to latest nvidia driver (461.92whql) . Issue still the same. ( "lagging playhead-cursor")
So it´s probably not the graphic driver. There is no audioglitch or anything else .... just a graphic issue.
No spikes at all in Cpu (1%) or Disk (0%) in SO.
Ran LatencyMon - all good .
I suspect something acessing the HDD .... have a very short blink of the hdd-led , and suspect that the cursor stutters, just as it lits.
Disabled Defender ..watching

Maybee I ll just wait --- maybe Windows need some new Framework or other drivers to be installed.

 

can you record a video of the problem? because i'm starting to that the problem comes from the gpu itself, but i wanna see the screen having the problem

 

so, does it work as sidechain?? because it seems to be pretty easy for a few tracks on a session
