Spark crashes Ableton everytime

[jaybrooks]

Hey Folks,

everytime when i open Spark AU Plugin in Ableton it crashes immediately. When i open Spark as an VST, Ableton is stable, but i cant switch Patterns on Spark, means when i switch a Pattern on the Spark nothing happens.
I have the newest Spark Updates installed and Ableton is 9.02.
I use a Mac Book 8GB RAM and OSX 10.7

Hi guys,
there is a hotfix for that.
You can get it here.
It is currently under testing so that's why it is not publicly released.

The "hotfix" for the crashes is gone from your website. Ugh. Any way I could get you to repost it? This is driving me nuts and I'm about to just take it back...

Hello,
what version of Spark are you using?

For me, it crashes when I am using the AU version. This can occur when opening an Ableton set containing Spark, closing Ableton, selecting a new sample in the studio. I just began experimenting with using Spark2 in my workflow. It happens frequently enough that the program is not usable for production.

MacBookPro OS X 10.9.5
Ableton 9.1.7 - 32bit
Spark 2.1.0
Original Spark controller

I am wondering if the VST is different. I will give it a try..

Where is this Hotfix? I'm getting a crash when using AU in Ableton then "connection failed" when trying to get setup again.

This hotfix was for Spark 1.6 two years ago.
We are currently working on a new update so we will do our best to fix these issues.
If you are interested in participating in the beta, I'll ask JB who is in charge of beta test to contact you.

Thanks Kevin sounds good.  I've been having all kinds of issues which I'll post.  Is there any difference in using the VST?
