I've got Cubase 7 running on a master computer and VE Pro running on a slave. Both machines are Windows 7 64 bit.
I saw the thread from 2011 about an older version of Play 3 and VE Pro where some samples would load twice.
I'm having this same behavior with VE Pro 5.1.11947 and Play 3.0.4.0. Many samples (but not all) seem to be loading twice. When they do load twice, in Task Manager, you can see the memory suddenly go down, then it begins loading the samples again and the RAM usage goes back up.
Then, when it seems like everything has finished loading (all RAM usage seems to be appropriately filled), I click on an instance of Play in side VE Pro, and VE Pro hesitates. Then it begins to re-load the samples associated with that particular instance. As if some samples loaded twice in the initial loading of the metaframe, and some samples will wait to load twice until I click on an instance of Play.
Is anyone else having this issue?
