GeForce M-Tron Pro crashing DP8

[Prime Mover]

I recently bought M-Tron pro for a progrock project I'm helping out with. Unfortunately, I've noticed that projects that use it become unstable and a bit crash prone, and it'll suddenly start making sound at random times. If I try to adjust any of its settings while it's still making sound, it always crashes. If I baby it and save often, I can be comfortable using if, but obviously this is not good. Has anyone else found they have issues with it and DP? I've also noticed some bad interface glitches when using it in Mainstage, but they don't occur in DP.

I wanted this VI for a while but I've never bought or used it as I seem to remember there has been a long term incompatibility issue using MTron w/ DP .

Have you tried contacting GForce support?

I have found them to be very responsive and helpful.

Dave is a talented and witty guy with a great passion for vintage instruments, and I love their products. They are a small company with limited resources. I keep hoping for a 64-bit update of The Oddity, because nobody else makes anything quite like that.

I would be curious to hear what they say, because I have the original M-Tron (which I haven't used in years) and have been thinking about updating to M-Tron Pro.

Oddity has been 64-bit since last autumn! Go get it!
I've also had good support from GForce. It's worth contacting them.

HOLY SHYTE!!!! That's fantastic! I spoke to them in late Summer and it that time they said they were planning on updating it eventually but I got the sense that it wasn't a high-priority. The ARP Odyssey was one of my first synthesizers, basically what I first learned to program on.

The Oddity and B4 are my last 32-bit stragglers. From here on I'm all 64-bit!!

Any resolution on the M-Tron Pro crashing issue, Prime Mover?

I just picked up The Oddity upgrade and am loving it, and I'm thinking of upgrading my M-Tron (another instrument I've been missing using), but this is a paid upgrade and I don't want to spend cash on something if it's not playing nice w/ DP 8 (64-bit).

BTW, I noticed they are running a temporary deal on Oddity for 50%, if anyone is interested. Says one week only, and it's been up for a while, so act fast, if interested.

For what it's worth, I use Mtron Pro & the expansion packs quite regularly, and I've yet to have any issues.
