Hi all,

I have a problem . . . .

firstly, my system is:

beige G3 300MHz, 384MB RAM, 6GB hard drive (with 5 partitions), 1GB external scsi drive (which I use for audio data and recording), Yamaha SW1000XG card, DX100 used as a master k/board; Cubasis 2.0 vst

I have allocated 180MB ram to cubasis, reduced the disk cache to 256k, turned off appletalk and virtual memory, installed the ASIO drivers in the appropriate folder and enabled it, turned off record sysex and turned on play in background.

Everything was fine for a while; I plugged in my guitar, recorded a track or two, added midi and played the result.

However, when I press the stop button on the transport Cubasis crashes with an error 13 which tells me to save everything and restart.

I do this as well as throwing away the Cubase preferences folder and start again. Everything is fine for a while and then the same thing happens again.

I have run Norton Utils on the hard disks. No major problems.
I have reinstalled Cubasis. Same thing.

Has anyone had the same problem? Any clues? I have invested a week of sleepless nights (when I haven't been in front of my Mac) trying to figure out what is causing it . . . but so far to no avail.

The whole kit looks to be just what I wanted. It sounds good (to me!), Cubasis is just what I need (perhaps Cubase in a year or two) and I find the SW1000XG really good value for money. I refuse to be despondent and give up because when working it will be great.

Phew! I would really appreciate any help you can give me.
