Is anyone else having issues with Curves Resolve in Cubase 14 on MacOS 26? I’m getting the spinning wheel of death as soon as I click the learn button and have to force quit Cubase. I usually set my project to 96khz and 64 bit float but I’ve also tried 48khz and 32 bit float and the same thing happens.
Update: Instead of force quitting Cubase, I waited while the rainbow spinning wheel continued spinning for about a minute or so, then it suddenly stopped and Curves Resolve became responsive again and I was able to use it normally.
Thank you for sharing, glad to hear it works now. I suggest Contacting Technical Support in case you experience any additional issues or if this behaviour spinning wheel reoccurs.
I contacted Technical Support about this behaviour.
I’ve done further testing and if I insert the mono version of Curves Resolve on the stereo music mix track whilst having the vocals as the side-chain input, it works fine when I click the learn button. It doesn’t seem logical to me to use a mono plugin on a stereo track, but it works and doesn’t seem to affect the stereo image of the music mix track.
If I insert the stereo version of Curves Resolve on the stereo music mix track whilst having the vocals as the side-chain input, then every time I do this and click the learn or relearn button, Cubase continues to immediately freeze for about 60 seconds until the spinning wheel stops and I’m able to use the plugin again.
Waves Technical Support is amazing. I put in a support ticket at 10:52 this morning and got a reply at 10:56! It wasn’t the automated reply you get straight after submitting the form, it was from a real person, Amit, who replied to me with detailed instructions on what to do. That’s the fastest reply I’ve ever had from any company’s tech support - only 4 minutes!!!
So, in the end I had to do a complete manual uninstall of everything Waves related from my Mac and then do a complete reinstall of everything again using Waves Central, and this fixed the issue that was causing Cubase to freeze every time I clicked the learn button.
Anyway, I’m very happy indeed to have Curves Resolve working properly and I’m going to use it on all my future mixes. I haven’t tried it with instruments yet, but I find it very easy to make vocals subtly pop out and be much clearer and upfront compared with other unmasking plugins I’ve been using till now.
