Yeah it is working for me and it's been 2 and a half weeks of googling, trying re-installing, etc. It does seem to be related to the way DP and VEP interact around VST.dix wrote:Big news if true for everyone! MOTU told me at NAMM that DP incompatibility with VEP is (just) one very good reason not to upgrade to HS.tbrianmann wrote:This solved my crashes with VEP 6, High Sierra and DP 9.51, (Vienna Ensemble Pro) also.
Turning off VST support in DP Preferences is great tip. Thank you.
Has anyone heard any updates from Motu? I'm having the same issue with DP 9.51 and UAD plug ins with High Sierra 10.13.3.nickpyo wrote:Is Motu ever trying to solve this problem?
Could you please explain how to do this?mrgkeys wrote:some more good news, it seems just removing the UAD powered plugins folder from the VST folder and re-enabling MAS VST Support in the plug in preferences, also fixes the UAD AU plugin problem.
Yes, MOTU wants to fix it. No, "ever trying" is the wrong phrase because this has only been a problem for short while.nickpyo wrote:Is Motu ever trying to solve this problem? I am trying to move to Logic! I have waited enough.. New mac and new software!

Here is the workaround I received from MOTU tech support and it worked:
Digital Performer and Universal Audio Workaround fix for UAD plug-ins on macOS High Sierra
1.) Run the UAD 9.4 installer. Restart the computer. If this is the first time running the UAD installer, make sure to enable the UAD driver in System Preferences, Security & Privacy.
2.) Open the Applications folder and drag the Digital Performer application to the trash. If you have multiple versions of DP, be sure to drag all versions to the trash.
3.) Hold the Option Key while clicking on the Finder's "GO" drop-down menu, select Library, then open the Preferences folder. Find the com.motu.MotuAudioSystem folder and drag it to the trash. Empty the trash.
4.) Download the DP 9.51 installer available at motu.com/downloads and run the installer.
5.) Find the VST folder (System HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/) and rename the folder to anything other than “VST” (for example, “VST_temp”).
Your Audio Unit UAD plug-ins will now be available in Digital Performer.
