Hi there,
while scanning for new plugins Reaper crashes when recognising PM-Basspeg. The other four new additions seem to work so far. I double checked in two different machines / WIN10 64bit Cheers This post has been edited by obeatz: Jan 14 2017, 08:06 AM |

Santo, you are welcome.
Thought that it might be a clear cache and rescan issue. Once failed, the plug should be blacklisted and not cause a subsequent crash. This gets off topic a bit, but wanted to mention about the vst ini file for Reaper users. Knowing how to use this remote file can save a lot of grief. Verified that all the P&M plugs are safe except Basspeg. Then the issue about the fragile state of Pitch Me, which registers okay but can crash the program after the fact. The Reaper vst ini file contains the log of all successful and all failed vst/vsti load attempts. Failed plugs are not given a name and remain blacklisted. If you delete just the line for the failed plug, you can restart Reaper and only retry the failed plug, and not have to do a complete breakdown and rescan everything. Almost like a registry cleaning, it is a good idea to go thru this file every now and then. Delete off all entries that don't have a name after the number sequence. Save the file and rescan, for a couple reasons. Blacklisted plugins may have been dumped for some momentary glitch never to see the digital light of day again. Deleting the entry will give a new scan on restart and the plug might work. (Basspeg did not) Sometimes a vst will register but with a name not remotely related to the dll file name. If you have a bunch of plugs, hard to tell if it was blacklisted or named something you would never look for. Searching the file for the dll name will show if the plug is blacklisted or if abc.dll is really registered as xyz. Note you can also change the name of the plug in this file and it will show up the way you want it to. @ruckus, hope the devs get a fix in the works. Incredible suite of tools John |
