Every time i try starting scaler EQ Ableton 12 crashes, I had no problems with the old v1.0. Any suggestions?

Hi @wlugo312 Can you please give us some more info as we use Scaler EQ 1.1 all the time. Mac, Windows? Machine type? Steps to reproduce the crash?

Davide, My apologies Windows 10, 64, 32 gigs of ram. I just did some investigating myself I uninstalled VST.3 and loaded VST.2 64 and it seems to be working. So the problem is definitely with the VST 3 version of the plug-in. Thank you

Thank you. @Tristan Can you please check this on your end?

Hi folks. I’m having no issues with either VST2 or VST3 versions of Scaler EQ 1.1 in Ableton Live 12 on Windows 11. Sorry @wlugo312 I’m not sure what could be causing the crash you’re experiencing.

However, after further test, if I start Ableton from a blank session (instead of my template) Scaler eq works fine. I’ve tried to open all the plugins I use in my template to recreate the issue,…

Does Scaler EQ 1.1 open and function normally when opening i…
