Wurlitzer V 1.1.0 crashes Logic AU-Validation

[mmillhoff]

Hi, I just installed the new updates and now Wurlitzer V crashes the AU-Validation in Logic Pro 10.0.7 (OS X 10.10.1)

Also Oberheim SEM V and AnalogLab have the same problem. Jupiter 8, Mg Modular, MiniMg, etc. all validate fine.

Having same issue in Digital Performer 8.07, with Wurly V and SEM-V.

When I got to DP preferences and force re-examination of these AUs, they pass examination. However, when I restart the MOTU Audio System, the whole DP application crashes.

All software is up to date as of this writing. Downloaded and installed the latest versions of V-Collection 3 via the new ASC yesterday.

EDIT: See my next post below for workaround.


DP 8.07
Mavericks 10.10.1
2009 Mac Pro 8-core 2.26 GHz, 16 GB RAM

[bobk]

WORK-AROUND:

After you force AU re-examination, Digital Performer gives the option of re-launching the MOTU Audio System (MAS) immediately for changes to take effect, or waiting until the next re-launch of MAS (which would typically be a re-boot of DP).

When I chose the immediate re-launch of MAS, DP crashed. When I canceled the re-launch of MAS and then quit and re-booted DP, the  Wurly (and SEM-V) appeared as expected.

Hope this helps, though I don't know how Logic manages AUs.

Hi,

bobk:
I'll answer on your other thread (http://forum.arturia.com/index.php?topic=83540.0), thanks for sharing your workaround.

mmillhoff:
Currently and after trying with several setups, we're unable to reproduce your issue at Arturia's.
Could you please try to clear your AudioUnit cache (cf. http://www.arturia.com/faq/utilization/how-do-i-clear-my-audio-unit-cache) ?
If it does not solve your issue, could you please check the exact version number of the Analog Lab, Wurli & ObSEM ?

[mmillhoff]

I just tried your suggestion and AnalogLab, Wurlitzer and SEM still crash.

Below is are the first lines of the crash report for AnalogLab.
If you need the full crash reports any other information, please let me know.

Kind regards,
Matthias

Meanwhile I upgraded to V-Collection 4 and the following plugins crash the AU Validation with Logic 10.0.7

Analog Lab 1.2.0.405
Matrix-12 V 1.0.0.414
Oberheim SEM V 1.3.0.400
Solina V 1.0.0.409
Vox V 1.1.0.409
Wurlitzer V 1.1.0.400

All other plugins validate fine, all plugins work in ProTools.

Hi mmillhoff,

We just released an update of the V Collection (available through the ASC).
Could you please try to delete your audiounit cache again, then install this update ?
I hope it'll solve your auval issue (we're not able to reproduce it on any setup at Arturia's).

Let me know if it fixes it.

Best

[mmillhoff]

Unfortunately no change. The new versions also make Logic crash during AU-validation.

I have 1000+ AudioUnits installed and there are only 7 plugins failing the validation, the 6 from Arturia and RayBlaster from Tone2.

My Computer is a 15" Retina MBP from 2013, 16GB Ram, SSD, OS X 10.10.1, Logic 10.0.7

If I can help investigating the problem, please let me know!

[Sam]

Hello,

Some of our users had issues with the AU-validation, but removing the AU cache solved it, I'm sorry it doesn't work for you.

Could you please try to follow these steps:
- Delete (eventually, keep a copy of) those 7 audio units from your AU folder (/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components)
- Launch a blank session on Logic X
- Save this session and exit Logic
- Clear the AU cache again (http://www.arturia.com/faq/utilization/how-do-i-clear-my-audio-unit-cache)
- Reinstall one of the plugins that made Logic crash
- Reopen Logic and try to reload the saved blank session

If the two last steps work, repeat them with the other 6 plugins, until it makes Logic crash (hopefully it won't).
If it doesn't work, could you tell me which step caused the crash ?

Thanks,

Sam

[mmillhoff]

I did what you advised. After successfully validating all other plugins again, I installed Wurlitzer V and Logic crashed during validation.

Any other idea?

[Sam]

Hi,

In the Finder, when you go to /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Component, if you select the Wurlitzer V.component, what's the version number displayed in the details panel (see attachments) ?
Maybe it hasn't been correctly installed.

Regards

[mmillhoff]

same version number, same date, same size

today I set up a fresh system on a USB drive with only logic and the failing plugins and they validate fine. I'm investigating what the cause my be, but again, 99% of my plugins are not affected by this.

the guy from vengeance-sound released an update today which adressed a similar crash with one of his plugins (VPS scope) his plugin also validated fine on the fresh system, and now also on my main system, so maybe the bug is only showing up with a big number of plugins installed?

[joelsquare]

I just wanted to add to this thread that I am experiencing exactly the same issues.  Hoping to find a solution soon!

To further add to the puzzlement of the situation - with the previous version, my desktop system would crash during validation of those plugins, but not my laptop system.  However, since the most recent update, neither system will validate in Logic.  It's very odd - no issues with Ableton or any other DAW's, just Logic.

I don't know if it's pertinent as I'm not a programmer, but all of the plugins that cause crashing appear in Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3, while the more stable ones don't.

[Sam]

Hello,

Mmillhoff & joelsquare, thanks for your feedbacks !
We're surprised by this behaviour and we still are not able to reproduce auval issue with those plugins.
We're continuing to investigate, your additional informations will be useful.

Best,

Sam

[mmillhoff]

Any news on this? I still can't use have half of my Arturia plugins.
