actually, i'm not.

there's no reasonable reason to deduce i'm out of memory. i've had no other indication my ram might be bad. if it's hardware, i'm thinking it's drive related, and i'm kind of scared to ask questions about it.

i ran a keygen for the midi guitar program this morning. i'm wondering about that. but cubase errors is a weird way for it to show up.

the file might just be corrupt, in which case i'm going to have to find a way to slowly copy over 60 very carefully put together and spliced apart files. i could try exporting it to omf, maybe.

the precise error is connected to the vst instruments. it's sending a dead signal to the quadrafuzz, which is feeding back like mad, and if i try and shut it off it gives me a memory error and refuses to let me save the file. so, i could also try the uninstall/reinstall trick. or maybe try and go back to a point in the history before i added the tuba, clarinet and flute parts.

it's not drivers, because the same error is happening across all four sound devices.

that being said, i've also had the machine off for an hour, and i'm hoping that's enough to clear some registers. i could try a pagefile flush.

*deep breath*

time to turn it back on and see what happens.

that tuba part sounds awesome, though, it's a shame i couldn't get a temp mix up.
