AU vs VST3

Newb question…

I just installed GP for the first time and created a simple rackspace with a single AU instance of Phase Plant. I was messing around in Phase Plant for about and hour when GP crashed due to a seg fault (address) error. Help with any of the following would be greatly appreciated…

  • Is this kind of instability typical for GP?
  • Am I better off using VST3 instead of AU?
  • Is there any way to confirm that the crash was caused by Phase Plant code?
  • Is Phase Plant known to cause problems in GP?
  • What are the best practices for avoiding crashes in GP?

My undying thanks to any and all who reply!

Did you get a crash report?
gig performer is well known as very reliable
which version of gig performer are you using?
are you using a m1 Mac?
which Mac OS are you using?

in the crash report the crashing thread should be shown

Could you please send the crash report ? Which GP version?

GP is rock solid, but a Plugin can drag it down if it has a bug.

You can use both, but try not to mix them. I would use VST2 or eventually VST3, but not AU to make your gig file compatible with Mac and Win. Who knows what your future will be like…

Yes the GP crash report if you post it here.

Avoid faulty plugins. Again GP by itself is rock solid.

And, welcome to the GP community forum :wink:

Welcome to the community!

From the crash report (I guess this is Phase Plant?):

Yes, I’m on an M1 Mac with 16GB running 13.6.3 (22G436).
I’m looking for a way to attach the crash report without needing to paste the whole thing into a post.

I guess it makes sense to go with VST3. I’ll switch. Thanks.
And thanks for the warm welcome!

This is interesting. Looks like this was an earlier version of the Phase Plant VST3 running on Windows, whereas I was running AU on Mac, but still implies Phase Plant needs time to work the kinks out of new releases. I’ve only got 16GB RAM on this M1, so a memory leak might easily take an app down.

I need a TLDR for that thread, but I can guess from the name in Mac OS dump that the crashing thread belonged to Phase Plant.

found this

so i am sure it belongs to phase plant

Below is the formatted (i.e. non-JSON) portion of the crash report.

I’m assuming GP did not have an opportunity to log anything prior to the crash, but I’m wondering whether it keeps any useful logs anywhere?
