Anyone get crashes when working with ReWire~ or vst~? Several times now Max has shut down completely when I simply open up the Help files for ReWire~ or vst~. It doesn't always happen, seems to be while I'm in the process of hooking up the reWire app (in this case, Fruity Loops). However, it has also happened when FL isn't open.

I know there could be strangeness when trying to connect different applications, but crashing when just opening the Help files for these objects? That seems weird...

As is often the case, you're likely to get better

answers or considerably more likely to attract the

attention of persons who might help you by providing

more and better information. This may help:

And I, in turn, will *help* you get better

results by pointing you to a URL that actually

has an "l" at the end of the .html, and - thus -

Ah yes, that is true. I'll try to be more specific ;)

I also got the updated Max / Jitter 4.6 /1.6. Looks like they updated the reWire elements a bit, so I thought that would fix it. HOWEVER, it didn't, at least for Fruity Loops. That said, I ran it with Reason Demo and it worked fine. So, it's a problem with FLoops....

Specifically, the problem is that once I select FL from the dropdown in the rewire~ help file (which I'm using copied into a subpatch), Max becomes unresponsive (mostly)... can't go into / out of edit mode, can move windows around sometimes, but it doesn't do much else. Can't input anything in that mode, have to manually Ctrl-Alt-Delete. So, I think there's some kind of communication breakdown between Fruity Loops, Max, and ReWire (am I Sherlock for figuring that out or what?!)

I suppose I'll fiddle with Reason instead, though there's some nice elements in FL that would be great to tap into. Using such easily-controllable MIDI messages in Max, with the automations and such, is great -- and now, taking advantage of all those built-in sounds and filters in FL would be fantastic. That said, Reason is also amazing...
