i would defrag if you have a lot of edits in there.
especially with all of the going on. the spikes sound like
the disk is trying to jump around loading the files.

especially if you didn't change anything and it was
playing fine before. did you open other projects and
work on them? or delete other things fromt that drive?

Gotta agree with Psy dave, that's asking a lot of your system at those kinda buffers for 24bit even if you have had sucess at those settings before. If I'm not playing live, I'd always pump the buffers up a bit just to keep things nice and smooth...

Remember, you're *always* gonna have to adjust buffers sometime.. there's never gonna be a one-size fits all..

point taken. will try

but...I thought the buffers would affect disk performance, not processor?

anyway..nothing new, no changes, drive is defragged (are you kidding, ME? man..Im a maintenance KING!)

Buffers affect how much "pre-mixing" is being done before you actually hear it. "read-ahead" if you will. It affects CPU more than disk use. Basically if your CPU can tread water and keep things running without the buffer running out, you're fine. But if you have a heavy plugin going, or lots of tracks and fades and automation and synths to think about, the CPU is gonna need more of a head start.

Yer broke coz you BOUGHT Cubase SX right..  

Mebbe you wanna start with something more "hands on" like Reason, Fruity Studio, or Orion (Pro/Platinum) - of course that means selling your copy of SX, but its all in the name of art right?

They all come with an array of synths, samplers, fx and all within one environment.

It's a good app now. Wish you could use more than one drum map at a time though.
