Hey,

looks like one of the plugins in the song is causing a crash.

Does this always happen when simply loading and playing back the song? Could you then please try out if the song plays back without any AUs/VSTs (you can temporarily disable AU/VST support in Renoises preferences to do so).

3

When I disable the AU/VSTs the song plays fine and does not crash while playing.

4

Unfortunately I can also not see which of the plugin crashes, so please try to delete one after the other until the crash does no longer happen.

5

Would it be plugins used in the song or plugins that are simply in the library?

6

Looks like the plugin is NI Massive. I’m going to go for a reinstall of the plugin. The strange thing is that it was not giving me any sort of problems a few days ago.

I’ll let you know what happens.

Reinstall of NI Massive seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks for your reply!
