[Solved] Load An Xrns Without Vst?

I’m looking for a way to load a song without the VST/AU plugins.

I’m trying to load an old song and I’m getting:

The error Renoise displays in the GUI is: Out Of Memory.

The song is, like, 2 megabytes so I doubt it’s a memory issue. More likely I upgraded from PPC to Intel to a new version of a plugin and the old settings in the old song are wrecking havoc.

I know I can probably hack the XML if I really wanted to, but I’d rather not.

Ideas?

hmmm,

just a shot in the dark but have you tried loading the song in an older version of renoise? maybe there’s a problem with the newish vst-standard?

Are all renoise versions not backwards compatible??

Maybe you can do a plugin rescan, so it marks plugs that don’t work.
I believe you can also prevent sertain plugs from loading, have you tried this?

Disable AU plugins in prefs, load the song, remove the plugin(s), enable plugins in prefs again.
Is the only way I can think of - without hacking the song itself.

This works. Pretty obvious in retrospect. Thanks!

I think it’s more a plugins problem. OSX didn’t use Intel until very recently. They used Motorola chips. Plugins were compiled differently, developers who updated their OSX plugins to work on newer machines screwed something up?

I dunno, I’ve had this problem a lot. If it’s a Renoise issue and it can be fixed that would be cool. But I doubt it’s the case.
