Presets containing Macro controls causing DAW crashes
-
I have a plugin containing a large number of presets. One category of presets contain controls that are linked to macros.
In the Mac version of the plugin only, when these presets are selected it causes DAW crashes. It happens when the group of presets is cycled through. After about 2 or 3 are selected then the crash.
This doesnt happen in Logic or Reaper but it does happen in Ableton and FL Studio using either component or vst.
The weirdest thing, this DOES NOT happen in the debug version of the plugin so im not able to replicate the issue in Xcode. I would just use the debug version of the plugin in my project but theres an awful lag that happens when the sampler and waveform generator are both enabled in the debug version of the plugin.
Can anyone suggest ways I can solve this mystery?

cant seem to get a crash but xcode keeps getting hung up here while cycling through the affected presets. does this mean anything to you @Christoph-Hart ? -
Did you ever fix this?
This might actually be my issue. Does it crash FL Studio instantly? -
My developer just confirmed this still crashes plugins on macOS (vst3)

@ThinkTank no the plugin i am working on still has random presets that will cause it to crash. manually resaving the presets seemed to mostly resolve the issue but sometimes it still happens. i think it was due to changes in the controls but im not sure.

@Adam_G Thanks for the heads up!
