I'm having trouble using FabFilter on R2R Cubase 13.0.21 on my Win11 desktop (i9-10900F, 96GB RAM, RTX 2060). Every time I open FF plugins (and a few others too but mainly FF), the interface is unresponsive as I can't adjust knobs etc. I can type in values but as soon as I hit Enter it freezes along with Cubase. I had the same problem with the previous version too.

However, it doesn't happen on Studio One on the same machine, and it doesn't happen at all on my Win10 laptop (i5-7300HQ, 24GB RAM, GTX 1050) so I'm not sure if it's software-related or hardware-related.

Has anyone else experienced this and/or have suggestions for a fix please?

For future reference, it appears it was due to having graphics acceleration on. I went into Registry Editor and found HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FabFilter. Turning the Graphics Acceleration/DWORD (32-bit) value to 0 fixed the issues I was having and all plugins appear to be working correctly now.
