  4. [Answered] Play crashes Logic when VE Pro in session

    Hi folks,

    we are aware of this issue and it is presently being investigated by our development team. We hope to find a solution to this problem as soon as possible.

    When using Play and VE Pro within the same project in DP or Logic (besides all other suggestions in this thread) I´d suggest to insert Play first, it should run stable then.

    /Regards,

    This sometimes works and sometimes doesn't - just like trashing the prefs worked once for me but didn't work for others - its odd! I've tested this across 3 instalations on my mac pro to try and troubleshoot / iron out this and some other issues and it makes very little sense.

    I would hope with the next play / VE Pro updates all will be well, although I can't help but wonder weather EWQL are doing this on purpose. After all, even though a lot of us value and use both products, they are commercial competitors.

    Running Play and the VE Pro Server Interface plugin in the same master host works in the latest version. Loading Play inside a VE Pro instance (be it server or standalone) is currently unsupported though.

    Any movement on fixing this?

    I am running the most current version of Play in VE Pro 5 on a stand along Mac Pro and VE Pro 5 crashes everytime I quit a DP project. I have basically the same setup on another Mac Pro without Play and it never crashes.

    Play worked fine with VEP for a while - then after a play update mid last year some instabiliteis appeared including VEP crashing on exit when play had been loaded.

    This, and many other things have been fixed VEP5 build 10068 released a few days ago... Have you tried this version yet?

     Karel,

    I've been trying QL S.Choirs for a few days within one of my VEP5 orchestral templates. Play works fine in VEP5 standalone. The problem is when I use VEP5 as a plug-in in Finale 2012, Play (SC) being an instrument on Ch. 1.

    All server connections look fine, the template without Play works flawlessly. But once I added Play, I now get no MIDI activity on VEP5 from Finale playback. Even when I go to Finale's ScoreMaganer and switch channels so that VSL Violins are on Ch.1, there is no MIDI activity on VEP5 either. It is as if something within Play was messing up with the connectivity set-up on VEP5.

    I'd be curious if somebody could try to replicate this.

    Thanks.

    Thanks Stuart.

    Just did the upgrade with the same results. Play is still crasing VE Pro 5 in stand alone mode on a Mac Pro running Snow Leopard.

    Thanks!

    I think you have a system specific issue.
