Instance view reads all Pro-Q4's vst3's when I have multiple projects open
OK,
Another issue with Pro-Q4
I'm running Reaper V7.28, up to date Win 10, Pro-Q4 V4.01
I have 2 projects open.
If I open instance view of a vst3 from one of the projects, it shows all of the Pro-Q4 instances for both project.
What am I missing?

Hi Pete,
Yes, Pro-Q 4 will see every other instance in that host in the instance list, even if they are used in a different project. We'll have a look in 2025 to see if we can find something to do about that.
I don't think it is incorrect behavior. This cross project feature might be useful in some scenarios, e.g. doing EQ match to track in different project. Maybe option allowing hiding tracks in instance list could be solution. So user can freely hide unneeded tracks from the list no matter if in the same or different project.
@rst,
Yeah, I thought about this before I posted it.
While we may be able to say it's correct behavior, if my track names are the same in 2 projects, I won't know which one is which. This makes the instance list difficult to sort through.
I'd be happier if Pro-Q4 opened only the instances related to that project, rather than what's in the DAW session, if that makes sense
Cheers
Merry Christmas
