FabFilter

Hello

I have updated cubase to version 12. ALL fabfilter plugins crash as soon as they are opened.
Operating system windows 10 home 21h1.
Ram128
Processor i9-10900k

Help me please

Alain

Hi Alain,

That is very odd: I'm using Cubase 12 without any problems here. Did you try VST3 and VST2? Try to restart your computer?

Cheers,

I am having the same issue with Cubase 12 on macOS 10.15.7. I am loading the latest version of VST3 plugins and am often dealing with saving sessions then Cubase crashes when I later try to reopen the session. It’s happened with Pro-L 2 and Pro-Q 2 so far.

Generally the call stack looks like this every time:

Thanks, we'll have a look. Is this with the latest 2.11 version of Pro-L 2?

Cheers,

The very latest fabfilter bundle, yes.

It's not easy to reproduce. Most of the time it saves and reopens sessions without issue while fabfilter plugins are instantiated. But if you work with the Cubase session enough (add tracks, instruments, save a few times, etc.) then eventually that session seems to crash Cubase when reopening.

Hi Steffan,

I've investigated the crash log, but it doesn't give an ovious cause for the crash unfortunately. Would it be possible to e-mail us the full crash report via e-email? This could give us more clues about what might be causing this...

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Same thing happened here sometimes on Nuendo 12 with Pro L2 & Pro C2. Everything is updated.
Have you got a solution ?

Thanks,

Rémi

I had some issues in the past but not now

Yea Nuendo 11 On MAC 10.13. Crashes with more than one FAB filter plug. Unusable!! ;-( with JUST one Track of audio , I have MAc Pro 2013 128 Gigs ram. No reason for it to fall on it face

Hi Bobby,

Can you try to disable graphics acceleration?
