Hi,

I am desperate for some help. I have recorded some songs on my computer using Cubasis VST. Now I would like to put them on a CD, and in order to do so, having mixed the tracks, I go to "export audio". As soon as I click on this, however, a message pops up which says that a serious problem has occurred. My computer crashes and I am forced to restart.

I can't think of any reason why this is happening. Everything else is fine and I have had no problems with the recording side of things. It's just mixing down that is a problem.

Any advice/solutions are gratefully received.
Thanks,
Ale Massey.

What are you exporting it down too? 24 or 16 bits, the khz rate? Try bring it to 16 bits with 44.1 k, see if that works.

Take a little time and put some information in your profile. Computer type; CPU, etc. Sound card. That is an odd one. Are you mixing to .wav or .mp3? I had a number of problems with cubasis when I used it as it is a very light program and I was always pushing it but not that problem. Wierd.

Hello again,

thanks for the advice so far. My computer is new, it has 512MB RAM, and 80Gb hard drive. The operating system is windows xp. My sound card is a DMX 6-fire 24/96 and I have been doing all my recording through it; mainly via a microphone. Everything seems to have worked fine.

Is there no alternative way to export the files? I want to export them to .WAV files by the way. But that shouldn't be a problem so long as I can actually get the relevant window up.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thanks again,
Ale

sounds to me like it's a problem with Windows, not Cubasis...I'd check for known issues with Steinberg.

This may be obvious but you are setting the 2 track markers at the start and end of the bit you want to record in Cubase??

I ask, cause I didnt when I first started on this!!

This shouldnt give you this error but there may be a bug in Cubasis, if you dont set the markers? Worth a look...
