Richard Hunter Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 When I add IK Multimedia's Sampletank 4 to a track, everything's fine for a few minutes, then it crashes the system. No such problem with Sampletank 3. I'm running Win 10 and the latest update for Cakewalk. Any ideas about either/or the cause or a workaround?
figuly Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Do you get the C0000005 Exception error message ? I had this, and with IK's support ended up doing a full uninstall including deleting all registry references. I believe it may have been related to corruption with the audio drivers on my laptop but can't be sure.
Promidi Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 How many tracks are you using within Sampletank 4?

Have you tried it with both the VST2 and VST3 versions? The PC is a recently refurbished custom build from Studio Cat (Jim Rosenberry). Sample Tank version is 4.13. Testing now with VST2 and VST3. Meanwhile, I loaded up a Cakewalk project with no plugins other than Sampletank 4 in it. It was up and running for about 30 minutes. Then I tried linking a MIDI track to the audio track containing Sample Tank 4, and the computer restarted. So it's not a conflict with any other plugins. It may have to do with Cakewalk's MIDI routing. Stay tuned for more. Update: I noticed recently that my M-Audio Hammer 88 controller is having trouble connecting with Cakewalk. I just updated the firmware in that controller, and we'll see whether that improves things. Edited October 26, 2020 by Richard Hunter New activity

Richard Hunter Posted October 26, 2020 Author Posted October 26, 2020 I may have found the solution. I mentioned earlier that my M-Audio Hammer 88 controller has been acting up some. I updated the firmware in that device from version 1.0.2 to 1.0.9. (I must have missed a few along the way.) I've had a fairly complex project including ST4 running on the machine for over an hour with no issues. So many moving parts to this stuff.
