Hi 👋 I was working on a project when encountered an error: "bad allocation". DP crashed and stopped working, so everytime I open that project, it starts loading something and stops working, until it reports me the same error again. I need help 'cause this is a very important project for me. Thanks in advice. :D
Windows 10
DP 11.01
32gb ram
Intel core i7
Cpu and memory both at 60%
Asio4all at 44khz and 256 buffer size.

Try opening a new project and "Load" from the corrupted file (menu File --> Load). I also see you're using ASIO4ALL - not the most stable environment.

Hi:

I assume you have done all the usual checks:
1) Closed all programs and shutdown your computer and then reboot.

1a) Start DP (from start menu) and make sure that DP is initializing correctly and it isn't a 'vanilla' DP issue (that may require a DP reinstall).

2) Current version of DP 11, ASIO4all and your audio interface drivers.
NOTE: ASIO4all has a new version ASIO4ALL 2.15 Beta 3 – it has been pretty stable for me. It's Windows 10 and 11 only

3) Are all your plugins passing validation with DP?
I had some issues with AIR Transfuser, that even when I forced it to load; sometimes restarting DP and loading it would halt. AIR finally updated their VST and it started passing validation.

Good Luck!!
