AUDIO INTERFACE HANGING PROJECT OPENING

[Milton Sica]

I share the solution to a problem that occurred to me this morning.

It was impossible to open any project, as it would freeze in the saving phase (which appeared in the UI) and block any interaction.

After several attempts, I started to isolate possible problems in my structure.

I then remembered another case in the past in which I was able to recover the work and resume operation simply by disconnecting my audio interface from a TASCAM USB that showed no sign of a problem and even worked for other applications.

Turning the USB audio interface off and on again did the trick for Cakewalk.

Reminds me of "Hello, IT, have you tried turning it off and on again!"   (From IT Crowd).

Yep yesterday afternoon very weird I couldn’t open this forum or my HotMail. I could open Gmail and lots of other stuff. I rebooted computer and it worked. Who knows why but always a good trick. 
My Motu interface used to act up occasionally and I had  to reboot whole system. So far it’s behaving on my new W11 machine. 

Computer/ Drivers/ OS , sometimes they play nice together sometimes they don’t get along.
