Hey,

i get the following message randomly.

“An Audio Unit plugin has reported a problem that could affect system stability.”

I´m pretty sure that EZDrummer 3 is causing this problem. This happens. since updating MacOS to Sonoma.

Please help me. Thank you

Hm, very strange. I don’t think we’ve had any similar reports, so there are probably many Logic+EZD3 users on Apple silicon Macs not having issues, and we haven’t encountered this in testing. Perhaps some setting in Logic may affect it.

If you open the Logic Preferences > MIDI, is your MIDI 2.0 checkbox checked or unchecked? Please try both with it unchecked and checked and see if that helps in this case.

It was unchecked. Checked the box now and will get back in any case!

AND,  I have same issue on my MacBook Air (M1)

So long, thanks!

Same issue with box checked!

I’ve using EZ Drummer 3 with Logic Pro 11.1 without any issues. Currently have it on a Logic project that contains some resource heavy plugins alongside EZ Drummer and it’s holding up no problem. Also been running Sonoma for a year. Only time I encountered this message was from using out of date plug-ins from IZotope in particular. I’d suggest checking your plugins to see if they are up to date.

Nest time you get that message, keep running Logic and if crashes, post the crash log.

Well, good for you. But I’m not making this up. Plugins are all up to date. Logic isn’t actually crashing, but EzDrummer 3 is within the project, causing a message. There I have 2 options. Restore the Plugin or quit logic. If I restore the plugin, all the progress is gone. Like song structure etc. So it’s actually just barely usable.

Currently I tried to just load EzDrummer into a project. No other plugin. It’s the only one. And it pops up that “an audio plugin causes a problem…”

that sucks. Please suppprt to find a solution

[Bear-Faced Cow]

Perhaps there’s a language barrier, but your condescending opener doesn’t exactly inspire anyone to rush to help you, especially someone who’has 35+ years using Logic.

No one said you were making this up. However, I did say that I had experienced the exact same message by having an outdated plug-in, and it wasn’t necessarily being used.

this is more of a Logic or CoreAudio issue than EZ Drummer.

Are all of your plug-ins properly updated? Not just the ToonTrack ones?

Pending that have you tried deleting your AU cash, and have logic revalidate your plug-ins?

have you also tried deleting your preferences?

No worries Jord.
So an outdated plugin could cause this even if it’s not used? What’s strange though is, that this message pops up only when EzDrummer 3 is in use. When no plugin is loaded, or a different one, everything is fine.

How do I find out which one, cause I’ve got quite a lot. Is there a good workaround.

Everything is revalidated in Plug in Manager though. Appreciate your help

Hello,

so I ran some tests.

Loaded any other plugin > no failure message

Loaded no plugin > no failure message

Loaded EzDrummer 2 > no failure message

Loaded Ez Drummer 3 > the failure message pops up randomly in a frequency of about half an our

Please support to solve this problem.

All the content of EzDrummer wasn´t that cheap that I want to create a new workaround.

Thank you!

Hi,

did you try deleting the AU cache file and then reboot before launching Logic again? If you do not know how and where to find it, please see this FAQ:
https://www.toontrack.com/faq/my-toontrack-plug-in-is-missing-from-logic-garageband/

Just to rule stuff out, could you please navigate to your ‘{Mac HD}/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/’ folder and move all but the ‘EZdrummer 3.component’ to a temporary location outside of that folder, then launch Logic and insert the EZdrummer 3 plug-in?

BR,
John

Thx John,

 

deleted the cache. I will report asap.

[Keek666]

Hello, unfortunately it didn´t solved the issue.

It was free of messages yesterday, but popped up over night again.

Here is something from yesterday morning after deleting the cache.

Any more ideas?

PS: I´m not saying that EzDrummer 3 is the problem, because I don´t have a proof. But for me it seems obvious, cause it only appears when the Plugin is loaded

Hey all,

MacOS Sequoia seems to have fixed this issue.

No messages since a week. Cross fingers.

 

Thank you anyway
