Is there any way I can know what is crashing GP?
The same Gigfile woks perfectly in another machine (Mac Mini M4) but is crashing in my Mackbook pro (cloned from a time machine backup)

What is in the zip file?
Can you copy the content of the crash log window into TextEdit and save the file and upload the saved file?
Or take a look at the crashlog window and search for the crashed thread.
Here you should be able to identify the source of the crash
Maybe you are using m1 plugins on a Intel Mac?
The .ips file has a lot of content. Its too big to copy and paste in a text file
IPS?
Please locate the crashlog in the console application
yes, its a .ips file
I copied a little bit of its content into a .txt file. Hope this is enough

Really?
It doesn’t crash on the other machine (and this one is running a backup).
And also, I found a rackspace that crashes immediately if I try to play it and NEXUS is not even being used in that rackspace.
Thats weird
The machines are different.
How looks the crash report when the rackspace without nexus is crashing?
I will try to freeze nexus VST and look what happens
What do you mean by freeze Nexus?
Yes, really! I can’t tell you why but the stack trace doesn’t lie. The problem is happening inside the real-time audio thread and is occurring in the Nexus!
disable the nexus vst in plugin manager

Can you check for updates? I believe someone reported there was an issue with Nexus that’s resolved in an upcoming version. You could also send the developer the crash report and they would be able to see what’s going on
The Nexus team seams to be responsive in fixing crashes. They fixed one crash here.
