@hisefilo Can you check two things?

1. Add another lock statement before this line: https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/blob/2deb09cfc20dbfa80d8db5c9201cc605e27cfd6c/hi_components/floating_layout/FrontendPanelTypes.cpp#L1003

        if (!getMainController()->getMacroManager().isMacroEnabledOnFrontend())
	{
                hise::SimpleReadWriteLock::ScopedWriteLock sl(connectionLock);
		connectionList.clear();
		return 0;
	}

1. If this doesn't work, remove this loop here: https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/blob/2deb09cfc20dbfa80d8db5c9201cc605e27cfd6c/hi_components/floating_layout/FrontendPanelTypes.cpp#L1009

This will break the macro functionality entirely but we can then at least confirm that it's the real cause and not masking something else.

@Christoph-Hart Hi Christoph! thanks for the time.

I still getting crashes after that. (Do I need to recompile HISE itself?, or just to point to the modified source)
Update. I did both with the same results

@Christoph-Hart still getting customers with crashes. Now Ableton joined the list. Any chance to get a patch or something?

[hisefilo]

@Christoph-Hart Hi sir!! Congrats on 3.5!!!
I found this commit. It fixes the race condition for preset loading?? Just wondering :)

- added UserPresetHandler.isCurrentlyLoadingPreset() · christophhart/HISE@6535012

The open source framework for sample based instruments - - added UserPresetHandler.isCurrentlyLoadingPreset() · christophhart/HISE@6535012

@Christoph-Hart Well, new project, new HISE 3.5.0 and crashed repeatedly on FrontendMacroPanel::getNumRows()

I added this (cardinal sin) and stoped crashing (by now).
on https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/blob/2deb09cfc20dbfa80d8db5c9201cc605e27cfd6c/hi_components/floating_layout/FrontendPanelTypes.cpp#L1009

It's there any other quick way to do it???

Please tell me you wont kick me out of the forum!!!

	for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
	{
        Thread::sleep(1); // Forgive me for this!!
        
		auto d = macroChain->getMacroControlData(i);
		for (int j = 0; j < d->getNumParameters(); j++)
		{
            
			newList.add(d->getParameter(j));
            
		}
	}

@hisefilo did you make any progress on this? im afraid i now have the same problem.. :(

[Christoph Hart]

@Adam_G I've rewritten some of the macro control code to reduce the multithreading issues, but I can't guarantee that it solves your problem). You might want to try out the latest state and see if it helps.

[Adam_G]

@Christoph-Hart thank you oh wise one this resolved my issue with the presets causing crashes. part of my script is now broken though - API call with undefined parameter 2. what was changed?

[d.healey]

@Adam_G said in Preset Crashes Standalone MacOS:

. what was changed?

Type safety!

Inb4 Dave says "tell me more"... https://github.com/christophhart/hise_documentation/blob/master/scripting/scripting-in-hise/additions-in-hise.md#type-safety

[Adam_G]

@d-healey oh boy

[Dan Korneff]

@Adam_G It's been driving me crazy all day :face_with_head-bandage:

[Adam_G]

@Dan-Korneff it doesnt seem like too much is broken in my project lucky for me but im lost trying to figure out how to make what IS broken not be hah

[ThinkTank]

Is this still an issue?

I got crashes on macOS, but not on preset loading, it just crashes on start.
