  • [SOLVED] VEP5 + Cubase 8.0.40: Crazy spikes since updating to El Capitan

    Hello.

    I've been running Cubase 8 + VEP5 pretty much flawlessly under OSX Mavericks on my MBP Retina 15" 2014 for a couple of years now. Yesterday I made the leap and upgraded to OSX El Capitan (10.11.5), mainly because a couple of other apps that I want to use are supposed to run better on that OS. Unfortunately this resulted in some severe issues in Cubase with spiking, audio stuttering etc with every project where I'm using orchestral libraries through the VEP5 Server application. I've tried updating every possible plugin to the latest version, including EW Play, Kontakt 5 and Omnisphere that I use a lot. No change. So before I give in and restore my old trusty Mavericks system from the backup I just wanted to check if anyone has any ideas on this?

    It would be sure nice to keep El Capitan since it has some nice new features..

    My audio interface is a Universal Audio Apollo Twin Solo, running UAD Software version 8.6.1. Has been working flawlessly until now.


  • It turned out there was actually a later version of Kontakt 5 than the one I was using. Updated to Kontakt 5.5.2 and the problems are gone. :)
