Thanks, Terry Kelley.  This worked for me.  I do look forward to the fix from Toontrack however.

 

From the Toontrack forum I suspect it might be a wait. It appears other DAWs are having issues too. 

I've found there are fine subtleties  that I can't express in the staff view where I can draw them in PRV. Mostly fine timing.

If you have EZ Drummer 2 still installed, insert it into the project and then replace it with EZ Drummer 3. It works for me. Right click on the instrument icon and then select replace synth (or replace synth on this track or all tracks.)

I found a work around for the crashing EZ Drummer 3. If you have EZ Drummer 2, add it and then replace it with EZ Drummer 3. For me it works every time.

So with some playing I determined you can start with 2 and swap to 3 and it works.

In addition, I noticed that if someone can add EZ Drummer 3 where it doesn't crash for them and then sends me that file, that file will load and not crash on my system.

Good Luck!

Terry

You're going to be told to post that on the Melodyne site. Once the developers see the issue isn't CW, they will push you in that direction. It's possible Melodyne might contact CW if they think the issue is in CW.

I just updated to Melodyne 5.2 and EZD3 and Melodyne is fine and EZD3 won't work. I'm on Windows 10 21H2 and an i7 processor.

For me,  Acon VST3 works fine on my Win 10 i7 system. But I think you summarized it nicely.

The three I know of are using ASIO (and all different) but that is interesting. I wouldn't expect the driver to be involved with just adding the VST but it's all certainly a complicated process.

Either testers did not have the error (one user in this thread reported EZD3 runs OK) or

they did and failed to report it or

they reported the problem and Toontrack released the product anyway.

 

I am sure there is more than one bug on the to-do list for EZD3 and probably more than one bug that crashes the plug-in.

Chances are there are more bugs yet to be reported.

Well, yeah.

What's concerning is that they don't work on several DAWs. It's just not Cakewalk having the problem. I don't understand how this got by the testers.

Of course.

The error is the standard memory violation: c0000005. Seen one ...

Changing the Exception Severity just makes Cakewalk blow it off but TT EZD3 still crashed with the violation. The fault is in EZdrummer 3.vst3.

Side note: It works on my friends W8.1 machine running 2021.12. Go figure. I did a rollback to that version and it still crashed.

There is something wrong with the new EZD3. Who's fault it is is pending the finger pointing session. EZD 1 and 2 still work fine.

I'm getting a crash on EZD3 also. I submitted a ticket to CBB and Toontracks.

I'm getting and instant crash when trying to add it to new project or existing one. I submitted a ticket.

I am getting a crash of EZD3 trying to install it in an empty project. If hangs up CW if I try and install it on an existing track.

Dump file is 6.2MB so I can't include it. I submitted a ticket.

ok im stupid

We all ask questions like this at one time or another. Join the club.

'puters.

Can you be more specific? I am not sure what "Charge" means here.

That's a good point. I forgot about that.

If they are not selected notes they will be grayed out. You can still edit them though. For a test, go to track view and select the clip. The notes in Piano Roll should now be highlighted and not gray. If you scroll away from those selected notes in the clip, they will be gray.

What effects don't work?

Is one of the plug-in's Sonitus Reverb?

Well, there you are!

See the arrows between effects? Left to right.

I helped a guy named Lance port this to the HP 2000 in the 70's and just discovered I still have the source code.

We ran it on an HP3000 ported to MPE. I wanted to port it to PC Fortan 77 but it used the EXEC function and I didn't know how to deal with it at the time. I too have the original source code. I also played the 550 version which was one of the few that was actually a nice extension.

Until you've left Spelunkers Today at Witt's End, you've never played an adventure game. I wouldn't let my kids play even Sierra games until they finished Adventure 350 (Colossal Cave.) Did that make me a bad dad? You betcha!
