cubase crashed, now scope ASIO not working
hello people, looooooong time no post.
my VST 32 5.0 crashed, giving a "Serious Problem" dialogue box, had to be closed with task manager.
Now, Cubase can't seem to connect properly to Scope ASIO drivers in Pulsar v3.01, so no ASIO audio input to pulsar. In other apps (not cubase) Wave drivers work fine.
Its possible that this is more of a Cubase problem, but posting over there will probably only get people telling me creamware drivers are too finicky, so I hope someone here can assist.
In Cubase, Options/Audio Setup/System dialogue still shows "ASIO Scope" in the ASIO Device dropdown, but the button for "ASIO Control Panel" gives no response. I'm guessing I need to re-install something, or fiddle a registry or CSET.ini entry or something, but don't know where to start.
Frankly, two years ago I had a pretty good grasp of most of the tech details when I first struggled to sort out the install and initial setup of my system (Pulsar and Psmplr cards, Pulsarv3.01, VST32v5.0, Wavelab4.0, on XPpro, CUSL2). But everything has been very stable ever since, so I haven't poked into the entrails for quite some time. Now I am not sure where to begin to try to solve this.
Thanks for any suggestions.
BTW, I've thus far resisted moving to SFP or Cubase SX simply because my current setup has been working fine and suits my needs. Too busy right now to take the time to make the switch.

What about just reinstalling drivers. And if this might do the trick, can I run latest sfp drivers in an otherwise 3.01 install, or should I try to dig out copies of my old 3.01 driver infs?
I'm willing to do a full upgrade to sfp if need be (but note above, where I explained I'm still happy enough for now with 3.01, that is until this problem occurred.)
I last read PlanetZ regularly around the time the first sfp came out, and I recall the usual teething problems folks had with the first release, so I decided to hold off. I presume these are mostly resolved with subsequent releases, especially since most posters these days seem to really like the product.
But as I consider making a switch from 3.01 to the newest sfp version, I'm not sure how to go about it with the least hassle. I haven't been able to find a good post outlining the process. Of course the included CW docs and readmes are pretty good, but what about stuff like preserving my favourite layouts from the present version into sfp, and device presets and the like. And also do I need to download updated versions of all the devices I use, esp third party devices?
My PlanetZ searching hasn't turned up anything to the point on this. Can anyone recall a helpful "how-to" thread on painless upgrading to sfp, which addresses these sort of things so I can do it in a couple of hours instead of a couple of weekends?
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
By default SFP 3.1c will be installed in an own route-folder . But you have to update your hardwaredriver, because the newer SFP needs the newer driver. ( can be done in the system device manager by manually ).
cheers

Hi
Once had the same warning message.... then I realised after about an hour I had not turned on my digital mixer and I use that as my master clock. Sometimes it is easy to overlook the obvious.
I would setup a basic project and check all settings carefully... you have probably done this?
Regards
Kenf

Hi dblbass,
Regarding the button for "ASIO Control Panel" giving no response, as far as I can remember in Cubase VST, and certainly in Cubase SX this control panel button doesn't do anything with CW cards. It works with some cards, but CW cards their control panel is viewed direct from the CW panel, "set..samplerate" and "set..settings".
If the dialogue still shows "ASIO Scope" in the ASIO Device dropdown in Cubase, are you absolutely sure that there is no audio input into Cubase via the Asio routing? Before you reinstall, check that the monitor input settings in cubase haven't been inadvertently deactivated or something like that.
Definately worth updating SFP to 3.1c though. It's much improved from 3.01.
Good luck, and hope this helps. Correct me if I'm wrong though

Check out a free host which uses ASIO (a good example is Plogue Bidule - http://www.plogue.com ) to see if it's Cubase, or the Pulsar ASIO drivers.
Same thing happened to me when i was using Cubase 5.0 with Pulsar soft 3.0
A friend and i sat here for days trying to fix the problem.
What we finally did was....uninstalling Cubase. Then reinstalling it.
The problem was gone and didn't come back.
Cubase worked like a charm up to the day when i got Cubase SX =)
Though...we still don't really know what caused the problem then...
It could' have been -->
I have had problems here with my DAW.
When having my USB active my DAW tends on shutting itself down.
With SFP and Cubase SX up and running.
So my ASIO gets "brused".
So i have had a few days where Cubase SX wont comunicate with SFP ASIO.
I can se the driver in ASIO device manager...but i get nothing.
After a few reboots the ASIO will work fine.
I now run my DAW with USB unabled, and everything works fine. =)
Good luck.

When Cubase crashed the ASIO didn't unload properly..and it got slightly "brused".On 2004-02-16 06:47, voidar wrote:
