Tips to improve performance
When using Cubase LE 5, application perfor-
mance could become extremely delayed or
error messages such as “cannot synchronize
with USB audio interface” might be dis-
played. Should such occurrences become
frequent, the following measures might im-
prove the situation.
➊ Terminate programs other than
Cubase LE 5 that are running
In particular, confirm that many background
applications are not running.
➋ Reduce the use of plug-ins
(effects, virtual instruments)
If a large number of plug-ins are running, the
computer processing capacity might not be
able to keep up. In addition, reducing the
number of simultaneous playback tracks
might be effective.
➌ Use the R24 AC adapter
When devices draw power from the USB
bus, on rare occasions computer perfor-
mance can suffer. Try using the AC adapter.
If the sound breaks up, please increase the
Audio Buffer Size in the Device Setup…
menu > VST Audio System window.
For details, see Step 5 of the Cubase LE 5
Startup Guide .
Moreover, if the application performance is
extremely slow and regular computer op-
eration is affected, we recommend quitting
Cubase LE 5 and disconnecting the R24
USB port from the computer once, and then
reconnecting the USB port and relaunching
Cubase LE 5.
Check the recording (playback)
