DP 8 crash on statrup (MW leveler )
Hey guys, on startup DP8 crashes and it says it is MW leveler. It says to remove which I do and then it starts up fine. Anyone have that problem and if so how do I make it work again, thanks

Does it have a plist or preference file? Maybe a corrupt presets list?
Re: DP 8 crash on statrup (MW leveler )
Just tried inserting leveler on a track and it works fine, also tried quitting and re-launching and that worked fine too, so I don't think it's a bug. If you go to Preferences>Audio Plug-ins you can select Leveler and ask it to re-examine the file. Worth checking out IMHO.

I've used the leveler in DP8 as well. No problems.

I'd pull these things out and make new prefs and lists just to see if that fixes things.

Re: DP 8 crash on statrup (MW leveler )
Usually, when I get an error that something won't load or that a MOTU plug is corrupt or missing, reinstalling DP 8 fixes the probem. I've had to do this 5 or 6 times, now.
The only time I had to trash Preferences was when I got the screen freeze before the wave form finished drawing (I now forget which old plug I was trying to make work-- it was so last week--but I renabled something and DP blew up). It's the first time in 17 years that I've ever done that--thanks to the threads where this fixed this issue for others.
Anyway, after trashing preferences and getting DP 8 working, the Trim plugin didn't load. Reinstalling DP 8.07 and repairing Permissions got me working again.

You know, I get that as well sometimes, but it's intermittent. Something $hit loads and sometimes it don't. I do believe DP is due for an upgrade but not being in the beta loop I can't know when. It is definitely due for one.
