I am using Cakewalk (by Bandlab) and have SD 3.1.2. I have noticed that when an instance of SD3 is in my Cakewalk file, the Cakewalk file takes a really long time to open. Once the project is open in CW, and I open SD3 within, I look at the memory gauge (upper right that shows the kit as it’s loading) and it seems to stall. For instance, I am loading the NY Avatar kit,the memory is showing 580 as the total RAM, but loaded is only showing 120… then a minute later it creeps to 150, then a little bit later 168. THis is not while song is playing nor am I in cached mode. I just want the entire kit to load, but it doesn’t seem like it is doing that.
Also, switching kits seems to take a long time, and even changing a drum out can cause it to hang.
I feel like it worked much better with it was Sonar Platinum (prior to Bandlab taking over) but I can’t image the DAW changed that much.
i feel like this may have started after a reinstallation of SD after a drive failure. I house the sound files on an internal (SDD) drive (p: drive) that is separate from my operating system drive (c: drive).
I am also getting errors – occasionally) that the sound files are corrupt, but I click ok and they seem to work.
Windows 10, 64bit
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
