I'm getting crashes when saving subpatches that use MSP objects and when turning on the dac~ object. The patch is fairly extensive, with about 30-40 sfplay~ or groove~ objects playing back sound files (not all at the same time) and 6 vst~ objects with Altiverb. The crashes seem to relate to the moment when Max is reconnecting with the DSP hardware.

The subpatches are routed to the vst~ objects loaded with Altiverb via send~ and receive~ objects.

The entire patch uses about 50-70% of cpu on a 2014 Macbook Pro, OS 10.11.4.

I'm using an Echo Audiofire 12 but the crashes occur with RME and MOTU interfaces as well.

I'd be interested if anyone else has this kind of an issue with turning on and off the dsp.

I'm not sure how to share the patch. Help with that would also be appreciated.

Max crashing when DSP is turned on and when saving MSP sub-patches: vst~ issue?
