  • Apple AU effects cause VE Pro to crash?

    Hello,

    I'm building a template in VE Pro with Logic, and I've noticed that every time I add Vienna Instruments (Appassionata Strings) and then try to add, edit or change an Apple AU plugin on that VE Pro channel, VE Pro instantly crashes.  Specific example:

    Create a new multitimbral instance of VE Pro in Logic.  Connect to 64-bit server & add a Vienna Instrument.  Add any Apple AU to that channel in the VE Pro mixer.  Close the plugin window and double-click to try and reopen it, or select "change plugin."  Instant crash.

    I haven't tried other AU's yet because this is the 64-bit server and none of my other plugins are 64-bit yet.  This is on a Mac Pro 8-core with 16 GB RAM running 10.6.3, Logic 9.1.1 and the latest versions of all VE Pro and Vienna Instruments.

    Thanks!

    Ok, I've managed to reproduce this. It seems to happen only on Snow Leopard systems.

    Did some further testing on this today as I wanted to see if this issue was only on the 64-bit version and/or Apple's AU's.  On a fresh boot with nothing else running, I opened a 32-bit VE Pro server and then a single patch from Appassionata Strings.  I managed to load a 3rd party plugin (ArtsAcoustic reverb).  I closed the plugin window and managed to reopen it by double-clicking.  However, when I tried to then open a second plugin (Stillwell Audio 1973 EQ), VE Pro instantly crashed.

    I hope this gets addressed ASAP since it's a core functionality to be able to add plugins to the VE Pro mixer ;-)

    Thanks,

    Done.  Thanks for looking into this!
