Hi,

I´ve purchased 5 t-racks singles with the group-buy and just tried using them in a project the other day. Well actually I´ve only tried the Fairchild yet; I´ve put it on a return bus to compress some overhead tracks, but everytime I´ve soloed or unsoloed a track, Podium just quit. Now all the tracks are active in that arrangement and I can´t even get it to open anymore. I was using the 2.20 version.
Could you look into this please Fritz? Thank you in advance.

Wow. This turned out to be the same bug that I found in IK Amplitube over two years ago:

http://www.zynewave.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1406

It’s likely that the new plugins use some of the code that is also found in Amplitube. It appears to me that this would be a very simple bug to fix.

If you search for Amplitube on this forum you’ll see that I and other users have failed to get a reply from IK about this.

Since it seems unlikely that IK will fix this soon, I’ve modified Podiums code so that the standard “all notes off” and “all sound off” MIDI messages are only sent to VST instruments and not effects. Fingers crossed that this will not cause other plugins to suffer from hanging notes. Hopefully the IK synths will not crash if they receive “all notes off” messages 🙄

Now all the tracks are active in that arrangement and I can´t even get it to open anymore.

You can disable the “activate power when opening arrangement editor” in the Preferences. That will allow you to open and edit the arrangement without loading the crashing plugin.

Thanks Fritz for the fast reply and the modifications. Without this, these plugins just couldn´t be used. It´s a shame they don´t do anything about it, being such a big company 😕 Good to know that some developers listen 🙂

Thanks from me on this one as well. I had mastered the “turn off power when opening an arrangement” technique, however in larger arrangements it had become barely worth going on with.

Thanks again and I really hope this doesn’t break other stuff so we can keep the change.
