    I've confirmed with my bandmate this is also occurring on a different project on a different machine with the same plugin and the same error on Dimensions Pro. So definitely not an isolated incident. 

    I've attached the minidump from the other machine and project.

     

    Would really love some help here.

     

  2. Running 09.2020 for now.

    Have a project with about 13 instances of Dimension Pro. Tried adding an instance of Chromaphone 3. Appears to add ok, but as soon as I go to play the project I get a crash. Dimension Pro 64 is showing as the source of the crash. 

    You can see the crash occurring here as it occurred during a live stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/813105494

     

    After that I tested something else.

    I opened an essentially blank test project with no instruments loaded and then added Chromaphone 3. The project played fine. 

    I then closed the test project and went back into my main project and tried to play it, I got another crash even though Chromaphone had been loaded to a different project!

    I'm assuming there's some memory mishandling here, but I don't know if it's a Chromaphone or a Cakewalk issue. The fact that I experienced this issue with something occuring in one project affecting another led me to believe it was a Cakewalk issue.    

     

    Cant add minidump for now as it exceeds the max attachment size but can provide if needed.

    This is specific to 2019.12:

    As I mentioned earlier I have issue with Midi dropping out starting with 2019.11.  The midi buffer default value in my config, for as long I as have used Cake, is 200msec.

    In 2019.12, since there was a changed in midi buffer recently I played with the setting and increased by 50msec (250, 300, 350, 400) for each test case.  when the buffer set at 400msec, there's no drop out.

    fwiw apparently the new midi 'auto buffer' requires the buffer to be set much higher (twice?) and not automatic as stated.

    My question is then is there any negative impact if the buffer is set too high?

    Thanks so much @micv this totally saved me!!!

    Details below for anyone else having this issue:

    200ms MIDI buffer was working fine for me on a project with ~100 plugins, 150 tracks, no issues, until I upgraded DMG TrackComp from v1 to v2, then everything was stuttering and cutting out. Also had this same issue with Mastering The Mix's REFERENCE plugin. I would get dropouts with error reason 1 : Audio processing took longer than the buffers allotted time slice. My audio buffer was already at the max of 4096 samples (which is standard for me when I'm mixing).  I was at a loss until I upped the MIDI buffer to 400ms. Smooth as a baby's bee-hind. 

    Thanks again. You've really saved my *****.

    I've made the mistake of not installing CbB via the Assistant and now stuck in perpetual Demo mode. The question now it seems, is how do I uninstall CbB without losing any of my Sonar plugs/instruments? I click uninstall via the Assistant and the first popup asks me if I want to remove CbB and all of its components, not sure I should be doing that as won't it mess up the Sonar installed plugs/instruments?

     

  5. So I've downloaded all the files, and I'm about to install, and the install default folders are the same as Sonar, including the "Shared Midi plugins" "Shared DXi" etc etc, at this point I don't know whether to go ahead or not, if I install will I lose the content of these folders for them to be replaced with the defaults of the CbB install?

    I obviously want to retain all my plugs/instruments from Sonar, but if I install in a different folder (not c:/Program Files/Cakewalk) will I create problems? Ideally I want to be able to still use Sonar if I have difficulties with some projects. 

    So where to install CbB?
