asked May 9, 2020 in Studio One 4 by charlestelschow (510 points)
I am trying to record a live set using my Studio One 4 DAW. I have my guitar running through my Bias Mini head, into my Focusrite 18i20. I have three instances of Serum, one for a vocoder data track, and two separate 8 bar Synth lines mapped to my MPKmini. I am only using these tracks while I am in between songs that I have audio backtracks for. So for example, I start with a 16 bar loop that is recording takes of my guitar, and continuously looping a bounced audio 808 beat, and the three serum lines. Once I am done playing, I disengage the loop, and allow it to continue to measure 17 and so on, where I have a song completely made up of audio tracks. Once this song ends, it goes into another loop, this time only 8 bars, but the second I go to redraw the loop region, Studio One just crashes, PLEASE HELP! The only thing I can think to do is bounce all the audio tracks in my set down to a single track but if there is anything else I am missing please let me know!

Thank you so much!

I have a 3.06 ghx processor with an 8 gb memory card on a late 2012 iMac with a solid state drive

Hi,

do you have the newest update installed 4.6.1?

And the newest versions of your third party plugins(Serum...)?

And the newest Focusrite driver?

Found this here for Serum:

If that doesn't solve you can submit a ticket to the Presonus Support:
You can find it under "My Account" / Support / "Create A Ticket"(yellow button).

Best wishes,
Flo
