    Hi all!

    Rig: Windows 10 x64. Cubase 8.5.15. i7-3930k, 64GB RAM.

    I have a small issue with Vienna Suite's Hybrid Reverb. I'm using an instance on a bus and not everything is getting reverbed. 10% of the time (or completely random) the reverb is ignored, not processed and a short crackling is heard as if something went wrong. I do not have this problem with any other effect or with Vienna Suite's Convolution Reverb, only with this one plugin...

    I reinstalled the whole Vienna Suite (latest version) already, to no avail. (everything is running on a relatively newly installed system with the latest version of basically everything)

    Any suggestions? Does anyone else have this problem? Easiest way to hear this is to just load a Piano and play one note repetitively with the Hybrid Reverb as insert or bus, but somehow I have more problems if it's on a bus. Exporting a track to mp3 ALSO contains this crackling and unprocessed reverb, so it can't be a playback driver issue...

    Thank you

    Regards

    Hi Zelorkq, 

    what latency values are you using for Hybrid Reverb (and your audio drivers in general)? Could it be that you´re experiencing CPU bottlenecks? Hybrid Reverb is a quite demanding plug-in, especially when used with low or zero latency settings.

    Kind regards,

    Thanks for replying so fast Dietz :-)

    My current piece only has one Piano track, so I use 64 as buffer, but there's no difference if I use 64 or ... 1024.

    Performance is definitely not a problem on my 6 core i7 (<5% load). My previous templates had hundreds of tracks, tons of effects and hybrid reverbs on them without problems... But I played around again and if I create a completely new project in Cubase I have no problem. I believe it has to with either a slightly corrupt .cpr file or one of the other plugins I'm also using is interfering with Hybrid Reverb, somehow somewhere.

    ... So in a completely new project I readded all of the same effects and everything is working. I believe something happened to the Cubase .cpr file somehow, no idea what.

    So yeah nothing was actually wrong with Hybrid Reverb. *Solved*

    Thanks for the heads-up! Highly appreciated.

    Feel invited to post your findings in case you can reproduce the issue.
