Bug: Pro-C 3 blocks Waves plugins Interface
Hello all, I'm encountering a very weird (and annoying) bug in Reaper (latest version). Don't know if it's on Waves or on FabFilter side.
When I have a Pro-C3 plugin in my session, none of my Waves plugins can display their interfaces anymore, they're all grayed out. As soon as I bypass C3, Waves plugins are fine again. Everything in my system is up-to-date.

Seems like disabling "Allow retina drawing of user interfaces" in Reaper fixes that issue. Not looking good though as Reaper is even uglier than ever now (yes it's possible) :-)
Does this only happen with Pro-C 3 or also with our other plug-ins?
Cheers,
Sorry Frederik I didn't see you answered my message.
It was only with Pro-C 3. But, this is very random. When I reported it, the issue was there 100% of the time. Now I'm trying to replicate it and can't. It seems to work fine for some reason. I suspect something between Reaper and Tahoe, because I have a lot of other plugins now lagging like crazy or having trouble showing up altogether, so probably nothing to do with FabFilter.
