Quick question regarding the kHS plugins, maybe one of you had similar issues?
I modified @jwdnty 's murder-rackspaces and added them to my rehearsal gig, to check them in my rehearsal room.
Two times in two different evenings my gig file stopped loading when trying to load the rackspace with the kHs Flanger.
It seems that this one wants internet access, what I don’t have in the rehearsal room,…
When forcing GP to quit and retry, the gig file loads… I’m on macOS…
At home, everything is fine…
Anybody with similar experiences? I did use the kilohearts plugins only at home so far…
Hi @tripleB
I have not experienced that issue (yet). Did you make any material changes to the gig file I shared? Or just extract the rackspaces and import them into yours?
All plugins basically OK and working. I think the only ‘suspicious’ plugin is the kHs Flanger. I double checked: I used the Epic strings already in other rackspaces for a longer time, so I would exclude them from the list.
As said: this blocking happens only in the rehearsal room Wifi (without internet access), when first starting GP with auto loading my rehearsal gig. My MBP is typically coming out of standby/hibernation - not powered down completely.
I have to kill GP. And the second startup attempt is OK.
If it were me, I would swap out the kHs plugin for another flanger (as a diagnostic step). If the problem goes away, you might want to permanently move to one of these:
That will definitly be my next step. I just wanted to share this experience, as this was the first time I used a kHs plugin, and did not have such behaviour a long time ago (Arturia and NI had a similar issue loooong time ago…).
Will take some time, as next rehearsal is in 14 days…
Just had an idea when thinking about the NI trouble in the past, where NI was collecting data.
I just re-run the Kilohearts installer, and tried to find some information in this direction.
I did not find any checkboxes so far, but I found a log file which exactly showed events at these rehearsal dates, with error messages regarding Network timeouts
I think I will start a conversation with kilohearts and get back in a new thread, once I have more information
Edit: support contacted - now waiting
I will check with the Arturia Flanger, Melda and the ADA Flanger. The Valhalla is on my long term wish list - currently I own ‘only’ VintageVerb and Delay from ValhallDSP.
Too much plugins, too much choices… a variation of the GAS…
