Thanks Gary, that did the trick.....

I have been using my scope + pulsar installed on windows 10 (32 bit) for a couple of years. But I had to rebuild my system to x64 and am trying to scope to install on it but the drivers fail to install. I am installing from SONIC_CORE_SCOPE_PCI_v5.1.2709-x64_EN.exe and the error I get is: Found &quo...

Remembering when I got the errors caught in windows 7, it was the scope driver writing outside of the memory space. My guess is when the app crashes, the driver does not know and still makes the callback for audio data. I've never written a driver, but it seems to me the driver needs to catch the ex...

"When asio crashes, always go to the task manager (to the services) and force quit scope.exe before pressing ok to the this app has crashed" window. This should help with the bsods." This worked with windows 7, but in windows 10 I get immediate reboot. No app has crashed dialog, not e...

Portaudio has nothing to do with it, that is jack. This has been happening without jack. If jackd crashes I get the same problem I get with any other ap.

My system has 1 scope(15dsp) pci, and 2 pulsar 2 cards and I am using ASIO. Simple setup. Primarily audio i/o. I am developing audio software with JUCE, and any program using scope asio that crashing will cause an BSOD andreboot. Very painful when debugging software. Solving problems takes a long ti...

Hi Astroman, My experience confirms what you said. However, my problem will occur without loading any new devices at all. It appears random. I can consistently cause by simply sending a series of midi controllers to switch things on and off, after the project has been loaded for a fairly long time. ...

Well, the problem is still not resolved. The device that was bad, so I created a completely new one. It is simply a 32 switches used for mute between the channel strips and the aux and main mix. I found that if I install the device in my project, and connect the 32 inputs to the channels, and the 32...

I built a new device to replace the one acting up. I won't know for a while if the problem is resolved though. However, in the process of installing the new device I discovered something odd. I went in to replace the bad device with the new device, and I got a BSOD immediately. After rebooting the s...

I think I may have found the problem. The problem is on the scope side but it is a bad device. I noticed that after I send a snapshot to scope, there would be about a 5 second delay before fader moves would be recognized by scope. For example, start a snapshot send that takes a second or so. As soon...

_what if tested without any devices in the project just sequencer source to dest connected; Have not tried that. _have you tested with some other midi/in/out not scope_ maybe it is your code; This will not work. Scope is the process that goes into real time loop. Process monitor shows it stuck burni...

I did a stress test. I wrote a program in c++ that is just a cpu hog. It is simply a for loop 0 to 10,000,000,000 with a print every 10,000,000 times through the loop. I runs for a few minutes consuming 100% of one core. I started one up and did a bunch of functions with scope and my controller, loa...

I did not have time to "pressure test" but did get one more piece. I booted the system from scratch with socpe and controller loaded. I changed the controller to 2 ms delay between every controller sent. That slows down the load from less that 1 second with no delays to about 4 seconds. Af...

New set of results. First I changed the code to not send any hide/or show controls. So now the only screen repaints will be due to fader or button values. I booted the system and scope autostarts with my project loaded. I did not even start my midi controller program so no midi was sent at all. I we...

We might be getting somewhere here. I am running no other applications when this happens so the system is not under load when I do this. the one thing that may be getting me is that I have a show/hide button on my devices that is midiized so I can control which device are visible. They are part of t...

tgstgs, Your reply explains why I was loosing data when I didn't have some pauses in there. But as far as I know I am not loosing anything now. But does the sending of too many too fast explain why scope locks up and eventully BSD's. It does not do this often, and only when system up a while. As an ...

First, to confirm this I will let the system go a few days without any midi to see if the problem occurs without and midi traffic.

But if this is the problem, how do I know how much data I can send at a time. The if I pause, how long do I need to pause before continuing?

I have had a suspicion all along that this is related to midi in scope. I am working on this as a live mixer using devices I built using BCF2000 as a control surface. I wrote c++ program that maps midi controllers in from the surfaces to controllers to scope via pci midi. The c++ program tracks all ...

thanks.

I had a system crash and could not boot. I started with a new disk and built the system up. I have restored everything except I can't remember what my last project was named. But I did save it as the startup project. So I want to get it off the old hard disk. Does anyone know the path and file name ...
