GUI Drops Out In Cubase 5

[mister gibson]

Hi,

I'm replacing 5 drums in a C5 project and the Drumagog 4.11 GUI falls apart (only displays some elements) after the 2nd instance. What can I do about this and is there a way to display a generic UI instead?

Thanks

OK. So I've found a similar post but for Protools:

I can see Drumagog ...But when I do, I only see the "header" of the plugin but I do not see the Drumagog GUI - no Main, Samples or Advanced tab. So basically, I can bring up the plugin's edit window but there's nothing I can do.

The suggestion was to run http://www.drumagog.com/vcredist_x86.exe. Is there a similar utility for Cubase 5?

Thanks

The run-time redistributable mentioned isn't actually a Pro Tools specific fix, but just a Microsoft update which updated certain Visual Basic files need between Pro Tools and Drumagog (updates which are now included in Drumagog 4.11), and I've never seen that same issue with Cubase.

The problem you are experiencing sounds more like what happens when there isn't enough free system resources to instantiate Drumagog. This most commonly happens in very large projects, or when loading many more than two Drumagogs at once.

Can you give any additional information on your system, specifically what kind of computer, OS, system specs, etc that you have?

Please direct your attention to the signature below:

And what kind of project are you experiencing this in, i.e. how many tracks, plugins, etc?

Also, I notice you have 4 GB with your x86 version of XP. Do you have the /3GB switch enabled? There have been reports that enabling this switch will have a detrimental affect on Drumagog.

I have just laid the drums this project. There are 8 tracks and Drumagog is the only effect to be added.

Do you have the /3GB switch enabled?

Yes as this anomaly occurs whether it is on or off.

**EDIT**

I have just laid the drums into this project. There are 8 total tracks and one instance of Drumagog is the only effect to be added.

Thanks

Perhaps that will yield some results...

We're continuing to check this out, we haven't seen this issue with Cubase 5 in our internal testing, but we're trying to recreate to see why it may be happening for you. I'll post an update when we have some more insight.

I'll post an update when we have some more insight.

I've changed video cards and still see the problem, just not as often. Has your insight been increased?
