Duplicate items in VEPro plug-in list

The VSL section of my VST Instruments list looks like this ⎯

If I load the VEPro plug-in by clicking on the second item in the list, it seems to work OK.

If I try to load the plug-in by clicking on the first item, Dorico hangs and has to be force quit (diagnostic report attached). Sometimes it hangs immediately, sometimes when I connect to VEPro and then close the project, sometimes when I save and reopen the project. I haven’t been able to detect a pattern.

I have uninstalled and re-installed VEPro.

The duplicate items do not appear in the corresponding menu in Logic.

This was happening in Dorico 6.2.2; it also happens in 6.2.30.

I could just try to remember never to use the first item in the instrument list. But is there a more reliable solution?

Hi @Wensleydale , the reason for the 2 entries is, that you have both, the VST2 and VST3 version of the plug-ins installed.

If you take the the Vienna plugs from the VST2 Whitelist (in the Dorico Preferences on the VST Plug-ins tab, then they shall get ignored and only the VST3 version listed in the program.

Thank you Ulf!
