VST Live Crash after quitting on Mac

VST Live
1

Hi Everyone,

When I quit VST Live, it shuts down as normal. However, it is quickly followed by a “vstlive has quit unexpectedly” dialog.

It seems to run fine while open, but I’m a little concerned about it crashing during some upcoming performances next month.
Any ideas?
I am on a MacBook Pro M1 and its happening on version 1.4.58.892 and the new 2.0.0.76.

I can copy and paste the crash report if that helps…

Thanks!

After further investigation, it seems to only crash with a certain project. If I start a new project and quit, no crash report.
Maybe a certain plug-in or video file is the cause…

I’ve attached the latest (very long) crash report.

Sorry, one more.

I have now found that it only crashes if I choose “Preload Parts” from the file menu, or have it checked to always Preload.
It’s a pretty large Project with about 19 songs, 4 or 5 audio tracks, a video track and 2-4 vst plugins per song. Maybe a RAM problem?

… we’ll check, thank you,

Hi @glenj11,

we have fixed the problem. Please re-try with the next version and let us know if VST Live can be closed without any problems.

Thank you,
Michael.
