No luck. Cleaned out the registry but P&M Digital Reverb 3.0.3 still crashes Pro Tools MP9 9.0.5.

Well it was worth a try and it works if it is something in the registry
at least you got them to install I cannot get 3.0.3 in install at all
I am still trying to figure it out if I can
as well as waiting on a reply from P & M
Cleaning the registry is always a good thing to do anyway
I'm sure it will all get sorted out
Cheers

Hello,
problem with P&M Chorus Ensemble in Cubase 7.0.3 64 Bit (Win 7 64 Bit Ultimate)
If i insert the plug, after a while a single loud click on the right channel (stereo track) appears.
No matter, if the song is in playback mode or in stop mode.

The effect is really great, but this is a little bit weird
Am i alone?

News, other Cubase User reports this issue as well!
No idea?

Hi Peter
I have 3.0.2 Installed on my system and tried to install and update to 3.0.3
So I could use P&M with PT 10.3.5 and could not install the new version
I just got and error message that the Installer could not create the folder for the plug ins
This was the 3.0.3 AAX installer I did not try the VST installers till I know what the issues are
I have attached an image of the error message as it appeared on my computer
Let me know what is going on so I can install the new update also I have noticed that
all of the previous versions are still installed do I need to uninstall them first?
Also while sending this post I could not attach an image to the post
I am on a PC platform, Windows 7 Pro 64, ProTools 10.3.5, Lynx AES 16e, Lynx Aurora 16 I/O interface
I sure would like to get this up and running again since 3.0.2 plugins were not recognized with the new ProTools update
and I miss these plugins while I am Mixing
Thanks

P&M Retro EQ bug in Logic 9.1.8 OSX 10.8.2

I usually send vocals to 3 space designers (one room, one plate and one hall). Now if I have Retro EQ as an insert on my vocals then there's a huge CPU spike when the playhead moves past the end of a region to and empty section (where there are no vocals). This causes the System Overload message to pop up. It is extremely annoying. None of your other plugs that I have tried do this. The moment I disable the Retro EQ this problem goes away. One more interesting thing is that, the spike is almost negligible if I change the HiShelf to a bell curve or if I cut Hi freqs instead of boosting. I think there is some thing about the hi freq signal the is going from the Retro EQ to the SDs that's causing this spike. I love this EQ and I really hope you guys will look in to this.

Nick,

I recently purchased the VIP bundle through the Group Buy deal. I installed PM version 3.0.2 on my machine without an issue. However when I launch Pro Tools I get message saying:

"Pro tools could not load the following plug-ins either because no valid authorization could be found, the ilok key was not connected or the plug-in was damaged: <list of all the PM plugins>.dpm"

I researched the problem and found a suggestion to delete prefs, recycle database and app folders in Pro Tools, which I did. This did not resolve my problem. Is there a solution to my problem?

System Info:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit SP1
Pro Tools 9.0.5
Focusrite Saffire 56
PM VIP Bundle RTAS 3.0.2


Thanks!

I downloaded and installed PM version 3.0.3 and I am still having the same problem. Please help!

Are you able to open Pro Tools? The reason I ask is because I recently had an issue with the stupid iLok where I had to go out to the iLok site and reinstall the drivers. Without warning....Pro Tools MP9 just stopped working. Once I re-installed the iLok junk....everything was fine again.

Well I have not received a replay about 3.0.3 AAX not installing at all, so I tried to install the VST versions both 32 and 64 bit and they install fine and the Host program Sequoia 12 see's both plugins fine 32 and 64 bit, but they just won't install at all for AAX and 3.0.2 is not recognized by PT 10.3.5 at all and the plugins are in the correct folder
Sure would like some feedback on this
Thanks

Hello Old School Audio Guy,

With ProTools 10.3.5 and ProTools 11 (which has not yet been released) there iare issues with the brand new PACE signatures that have to be written into the code for all the AAX plug-ins.

We are working on it with PACE and Avid to get a solution quickly so that people can work with the recent 10.3.5, the previous version 10.3.3 does not have this requirement.

It does block the installation process.

Best Regards

Nick

Hello Perry,

As soon as we have everything ironed out with the PACE signature issue we will be posting on the news page on DontCrack and you should see a version 3.04 of P&M.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Hello whitealbum,

We have seen your report and for the moment we don't know why this happening to you and the others.

We have passed on the info to the developers and testers to see what they can do about it.

We will keep you posted on what happens.

Good to hear, thanks.

Some infos about that behaviour.
Sometimes users (incl. me) have to wait half an hour before the first click appears.
Yesterday it happended then, after a while, every 1-3 minutes a single click appears. So thats not a specific time (every 5 minutes or so) problem.
I noticed more clicks as well if you do something in parallel (internet surfing or something else).
Project CPU usage is about 30-40%.

Hope that helps to sort it out.

I own the VIP bundle LOVE it so far. But unfortunately it seems like all of the amp simulation plugins don't work correctly on my system. It pretty much sounds like I threw a bitcrusher and killed the track. All distorted, hardly any signal coming through. This problem happens with the American Tweed, British Tone, etc.

Further to this earlier post, I'm encountering the same problem in Presonus Studio One 2.5.1.I can record a guitar part using the P&M amp sims, but if I try to use them with existing, already recorded guitar parts I'm getting the same horrible 'bitcrusher' distortion, this is of course, with any other amp sim or distortion plugins disabled..I'm using the latest 3.03 version of the P&M bundle, and have tried reinstalling which made no difference, other plugins from the bundle working fine.

Any update on this issue?

Hello whitealbum,

Your line about doing something in parallel makes me think that there might be something active in the background that asking for CPU power while Cubase is running. any autosaves, file indexing etc?

Is there a way to increase the amount of CPU use allowed for Cubase?

Or a way of allocating more RAM to Cubase so that it can avoid perhaps being starved of CPU power, just an idea as it seems to be related to the processor's ability to handle the tasks it is presented.


Best Regards,

Nick
