Thanks Pete and Tex, unfortunately the Focusrite driver fix hasn't made any diffence and a
new PC isn't an option at the moment so I guess I'll have to live with it. I've just fired
up Cubase 6.5 again and the problem is there with the old version too though less
pronounced - I guess I just didn't notice it before for some reason.
I've
currently got a DP35DP - firewire is on the board.
