OSX Mojave: Addictive Drums 2 & ABJF VST2 GUIs randomly crash

Did update from 3.1 (it worked flawlessly) to 3.3
Loaded Addictive Drums 3 VST (2), open gui, load some preset, hit [let say a lot/crazy drum solo;)] notes for few moments (minute/two), repeat crash. Keep on happening every time, once faster one slower. Update: 3.2 seems to do it too, less often
Update2: second crash was when clicked addictive drums logo on ui, it worked for some time and crashed. G

Same story as in

and it worked and works good in 3.1. Same story, playing notes via midi controller for period of times, but this time Ample Sound bass j. [edit: and Ample Sound: ABU etc] It happened multiple times in regular basis. It looks like every vst that is bigger/loads sample crashes, i can’t force for example lounge lizard to crash yet.
i would add to same topic but i did see that was edited so i didn’t know what i should do.

@taktik is there any way you could look into it with my help? I know that is not a lot and it doen’t look like other people mentioning it, but isnt it weird that 3.1 works flawlessly and 3.3/3.2 doesn’t? Is thare any way to maybe enable more advanced logs or something? I work in It to i feel good enought about myself to to whatever is needed to look into it. And 3.1 but i bought 3.3 for upgrade reasons and feel like im sitting in bench. I do understand that fact that i don’t see people posting about it make it not priority, but can we try to look into it?

I do want to revisit topic only to say that this after change of computer, upgrade to big sur because of it and updates that was introduced to Addictive Drums, it stopped to crash and works good. It was only bug that was showing in Renoise in my daws, but now it doesnt matter.

Similar story i’ve only send this via mail i do believe about soundtoys effect rack. Now they are refactoring code for m1 they repaired bug about crash when changing presets, now it didnt crash also
