How can one VST cause an audio signal on another unrelated?

Post by MDesigner »

I've got Zebra and Diva loaded up in a project together. For some reason, when I play notes on Diva, Zebra's audio track somehow has a signal showing, and I hear crackling. This one has me stumped. Is it a DP8 bug? (see screencap below)

Never mind, appears to be a bug in the Zebra2 VST (the AU version works perfectly fine).

For a bit of thread necromancy, and additional info, the pc version does exactly the same thing.
If you pile on a bunch of zebras, any other audio streams (like audio tracks or other instruments) will exhibit a "tremolo" type effect.
I'm not sure about other hosts on mac, but on pc, this only occurs in DP.
Maybe some vst->mas wrapper tweakage is in order?
