Well, the guys over at the WaveLab camp has declared WL Maverick safe, so it ought to be a Cubase issue. On the other hand, I just did a very simple test. I Installed Mavericks, Cubase 7.0.6, WaveLab Elements 8.0.3 and my audiocard driver to a second harddrive. I then played a 50 minute album with iTunes, Cubase and WLE. Not a single drop-out, pop, crackle or dangerous noiseburst. Is there any more precise information about when these dangerous noiseburst are supposed to occur (normal playback or with specific actions taken)?
My next test will be to install Mavericks on a clone of my main drive, so I can see how other apps and plug-ins behave.
Some Steinberg hardware products need to be updated as well to ensure full compatibility with the new OS X version. We therefore recommend you not to upgrade to OS X 10.9 yet.*
But I just bought a new Mac Pro which comes with Mavericks out the box and recently purchased Cubase 7. So what do I do? Will this fix for Mavericks even be free or will I have to pay to upgrade the version of cubase I haven’t even been able to use yet? Do I return Cubase and get my money back? There is no sign of an official ETA from anywhere apart from “We are working on it”.
Some kind of indication would be good, at least that would eliminate the uncertainty.
Yes I agree! I have two songs that I need to export for a CD project that crashes all the time!
It´s urgent. It´s a crash with a realtime plug export error in it.
Please Mr Steinberg hurry up!
Its steinberg. Wavelab also affected by the digital noise. I only have one ear and after cubase did damage to that with mavericks, I then loaded a file in wavelab 8 demo and almost fell off my chair as it blasted my ear again. Its dangerous and it’s not a joke I am certain that if I wasn’t using a laptop speaker at the time I’d have more hearing loss now than I already have, then again, my tinnitus has been much worse since that happened. No other audio app in history is affected, I assume nuendo will have the same problem but I can’t confirm. I haven’t been able to use cubase at for a month now, and obviously I have completely lost any use of my wavelab demo. This has to be priority one to fix. Even avid have already released full compatibility with pro tools. Logic, ableton, studio one, dp, pt, all work properly. That shows you how non standard the steinberg mac osx asio implementation is, because they are the only apps affected. I am talking fact now, not fiction. A class compliant USB audio interface will hurt your ears and speakers in mavericks and cubase and wavelab. Please please be careful.
Solved… I fix it by checking the Asio Latency Compensation on the track. In the preference Record-Midi i put a check in Asio Latency Compensation Active by Default.
Your not configured correctly … you have just stuck a band aid on the problem is all you have done …
goto the your devices menu then Devices setup then under VST AUDIO SYSTEM and adjust the Sound card Driver and in the submenu the Latency … you will need to tweak the latency down to a small value but don’t go to low as your system will start dropping out … tip watch your performance meter as you tweak it if you aim for the first 1/3 of the meter you should be ok and don’t forget to remove the constrain delay compensation hope that solves your issue
OK, so I know all the news is about Steinberg going to 7.5 but really a serious %100 approved Mavericks fix needs to be created ASAP. All my plugins I use have been officially approved for use with Mavericks for a couple weeks now. What’s the delay Steinberg?
