Chow RNN crashes plug-in host when used inside Cardinal

Open unfa opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Cardinal is a new self-contained plug-in based on VCV Rack and it comes with ChowDSP modules.

https://github.com/DISTRHO/Cardinal

I've tested a few of these and they worked, but the RNN module crashes my host (Carla and Ardour alike) when hitting the "Randomize" button. I can see the button's rotation changing for 1 frame and then it's gone.

I tested both LV2 and VST3 builds of Cardinal.

@falkTX Would probably know more about what could be going on that is unique to Cardinal.

This is likely something that should be reported in Cardinal first, and then in the individual module projects as necessary.

We need to check first if the issue happens only in Cardinal or if it also happens with the VCVRack standalone version.

I've heard that the crash happens in VCV Rack as well.

Hi all,

Thanks for reporting this! I haven't been able to reproduce the bug yet VCV Rack 2 (standalone or plugin), but I'll keep investigating.

I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that the "Randomize" switch is momentary, and how the DAW or plugin wrapper is handling that?
