Replace Plugin Crashing Gigperformer

Gig Performer on Mac OS X
1

Hello,
I am running Sonoma 14.1.1 on an M1 Max. I have been updating my rackspaces with a larger mixer to add the streaming audio file player. However, when I do this Gigperformer crashes. The only work around I found is to load the larger mixer, rewire, label the channel and set the levels then delete the one I am replacing. Just wanted you to be aware.

Here is the crash report.

I looked at that crash report. The thread crashing is number 1259 (you must have a LOT of stuff there) and the item that is crashing is Kontakt 7

Thanks for the response. I use Kontakt 7 quite a bit. I did a test.
Rackspaces without Kontakt 7 - replace mixer plugins fine.
Rackspaces with Kontakt 7 with 2 or less stereo outputs from Kontakt - replace mixer plugins fine.
However, rackspaces with Kontakt 7 with 3 or more stereo outputs from Kontakt - crash every time.
This must be a Kontakt 7 issue?
Thanks again.

Below is the specific thread and you can see that Kontakt 7 is at the top and therefore the cause of the crash.
You could forward to NI but my sense is that Kontakt 7 is quite buggy — I’m personally sticking with Kontakt 6 for anything serious right now.

I’ve been compiling Kontakt issues in this thread, because many people use it.

All reported issues are with v7, no v6.
