Title: Spark VDM AU plugin does not work in Ableton Live.
Post by: rupertlally on March 07, 2012, 10:44:11 am

Have already emailed Arturia about this; wondered if anyone else was having the same problem with the Spark VDM demo in Ableton Live 8 on Mac? I'm on the latest version of Live (8.2.8) with OS 10.5.8. and everytime  I try to open the AU plugin Live crashes completely.

It happens to me trying to authorize the 15-day-testperiod on FL studio,- but works ok just launching directly to demo-mode.
One thing I miss though, is a manual....not the quick start-version..

Hi rupertlally,
can you give me some details about this crash?
Do you have the crashlog generated by Mac OS X?
Does it happens with VST?

Hi Kevin,

As soon as you select  the AU plugin in Live you get the "spinning umbrella" for about
10 seconds then Live quits completely. VST appears to work without any problems; so it's only the AU version. Haven't tried the standalone version but assume that works too. Have had similar problems with Analog Player AU plugin, but that was only occasionally; this happens every time. Tried a previous version of Live (8.2.1) assumed it was that at first so updated Live to latest version - same thing. Can send Ableton crash report if that helps.

Best,
Rupert
