Every time I close my laptop lid and put my M3 MacBookPro to sleep, Dorico crashes. I’m a new user and am only running very simple projects. It’s very annoying. I’ve attached the Diagnostics.
Interestingly, Dorico doesn’t crash when no project is loaded. I’m running the latest version of the software, and my system is up to date.
Hi @cmacsound ,
the diagnostics contain quite a few crash dumps of Dorico itself but not the audio engine. To my untrained eye on Dorico side it appears as if Dorico is crashing while handling MIDI input data. Do you have some MIDI keyboard connected? Could it be that it constantly sends Active Sense or MIDI controller data? What if you disconnect any MIDI device and then close the lid, does it still crash?
(@dspreadbury please also take a look at TST-6801)
Interestingly, if I quit AudioSwift while Dorico is running, Dorico crashes.
Could be a bug in Dorico when the virtual ports are ‘deleted’ upon system sleep.
Talking with the developer, he says that AudioSwift ‘quits’ when the computer goes to sleep mode. The reason is that the macOS multitouch framework restarts when the computer wakes up and it causes an error in AudioSwift.
With this extra information it starts making sense. So AudioSwift goes away and Dorico gets notified about MIDI ports disappearing and updates its EventDeviceDocument, then still some MIDI-Data comes in (probably even from AudioSwift)and that’s where we crash.
So yes, I’d regard it a bug in Dorico, because we should not crash under such condition.
