New 32 Lives with Altiverb 6 crashes DP 9.12 RESOLVED

Post by James Steele »

Just downloaded the new 32 Lives official 2.0 release today. Was excited because it uses iLok which I prefer. Turns out I had to uninstall it and go back to the 32 Lives 2.0 Public Beta as any project containing a wrapped instance of Altiverb 6 crashes DP upon project load. :( Bummer. Not ready to give up Altiverb 6 as it has a really nice room I like on guitar. Hopefully SoundRadix can solve this. Don't think I can afford to pony up for Altiverb 7 yet. :(

Thanks for the heads up. Got the email but haven't downloaded yet.

I don't use Altiverb and only have 32Lives for a couple of old plugs in old projects where Beta 2.0 works fine.

I'll see what the new one does ... carefully.

The new version claims to "sandbox" plugs now so if one crashes it doesn't bring down everything. However Altiverb 6 seems to bring down DP. I reported to MOTU and to Sound Radix. They apparently tweaked with Carbon Graphics support in this version and perhaps that's where Altiverb 6 is crashing. I should have seen if AudioEase had a sale recently, but don't think they did. The new version worked fine with Liquid Mix which is really miraculous that the plug and hardware are still working this long after Focusrite abandoned it.

Received a response on my support ticket from Nir and Sound Radix:
Thank you for your report. We're on it and hope to resolve it ASAP. I apologize for the inconvenience.
That's very encouraging to me. My experience with them is that they really do try and squash bugs like that. Hopefully they will update it soon!

I just received an email from Nir at Sound Radix with a link to 32 Lives 2.0.1 and the Altiverb 6 problem is fixed. Hopefully they'll push out 2.0.1 to the public soon.

Ahhh... thanks for reviving this thread. I was still on 2.0 Beta and updated this morning to 2.02. No idea if I'll notice a difference but, so far, everything is behaving.
