Still have this issue. Here are my specs:
32 GB Ram
Windows 10 Pro
Intel Xeon CPU E3-1286 v3
200+ gb free space
Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 Ti
Cubase Artist 8
The project is unplayable. Thinking about switching to a new DAW.
There is stuttering multiple times every second, and when I record, it usually stops playing and gives me the message that an audio dropout has been detected.
