These projects I have worked on before with no problems and at decent cpu levels and with under 30 tracks each. This problem started from one day to another with version 9.6.1 and withou...

Some will randomly decide not to output any sound, some will have buffering issues, some freeze the computer while recording. In the 15 years of working wi...

.... AS per your suggestions I have done at least 98% of them listed....but this is a new built system, updated actually... so there are probably a few tweaks still needed that I haven't discovered yet.
