Yes it’s hard to narrow the problem and reproduce the crash. I have a collection of plugins that I normally use. All projects open just fine except this specific one. As I can’t open it it’s hard to list what plugins are being used. But as it’s starter project I hadn’t inserted that much yet.
Anyway, if I get wiser later on I will certainly share my findings.
There you are. It’s a .cwp file (no audio). As the project doesn’t open properly I can’t include any audio (.cwb would be the same size, no audio either).
It’s very unpredictable and unreliable. However, I now have a project which doesn’t open at all but it contains a few plugins in addition to SD3 and BiasFx2. It either crashes or doesn’t open fully to track view. Would this file help with the investigation? How do you want the file to be sent?
It was a premature relief. The issue persists. I then tried temporarily removing presets from both of the folders. No improvement. The projects open randomly maybe 1/6 of the times. Regardless of running the standalone version or having the folders empty (or not).
But then I started removing other plugins and was able to pinpoint the crashes to BiasFx2. When removing the few instances I had on the tracks, the crash no longer happens. Now, what can I do with this information? I really need them to work together and not cause such conflict.
Oddly the older (and much bigger) projects with both plugins run without issues. BiasFx2 is up to date and so is Cakewalk. Win10 doesn’t have any pending updates either. My gpu is also running the latest driver.
I only run the standalone version before opening Cakewalk. Works great so far.
I see my saved presets in the folders shown in ‘user presets’ path. Some in ‘files/toontrack/superior3/presetsezx/sl-dfh/s3presets and then others in files/toontrack/superior3/presetsezx/superior_drummer_3/s3presets. The prior folder shows only the most recent ones and the latter only older ones.
Should they all be in just one folder? If so, which one? Or do they relate to the add-on packages (I purchased the metal foundry recently)?
no I haven’t updated Cakewalk recently. And I haven’t installed any new software. When I’m able to to open the projects I will try deleting other plugins. But these projects are very simple and bare because I just started them. The worry is that maybe the problem will appear in older projects as well. Or in the final stages of a mix.
Anyway, I enclosed a dump file for further inspection.
