Crashing bug; AP 1.5.3

Post by pwg »

Whenever I attempt to create a Batch Processor containing both Normalize and AU Multiband Compressor, AP crashes while the compressor configuration dialog is open.

Neither crashes when not in a Batch Processor.

Interesting, actually it seems to be simply the multiband compressor
triggering it (also without normalize). I'll have a look at this ASAP.
Thanks for reporting! Regards,

Thanks Martin. I use AP only occasionally, but when I do, I use it intensively (for voice recording).

Best,

Hi, I believe that the version at <http://www.hairersoft.com/Downloads/AmadeusPro.zip>
now fixes this problem. Thanks,

Another crashing problem

Post by Steve Storz »

hi, I'm new here, using a mac. w/ os10.4. I really like this program and I just purchased my second copy of your program and all seemed well until I got a notice a of a new update available. I accepted the download and got a window that told me the download was ready to install and that I could activate it now or at the end of my current session. I chose the later and worked on a new composition. At the end when I hit Save I got a warning that some of the functions would be lost (such as the volume envelope I have made. Sure enough it messed up my work, but saved the main tracks. Now each time I open the program I get the same options. If I tell it to instal Now it closes the program. If I select Install At End of Session it will remain open but will randomly ruin work that i've done. What can i do?


Thanks, Steve

I am fairly sure this is a known problem with 10.4 and 1.5.3. Just stop
AP, go to the website and download the next version. Note, I always do
it this way so I can consistently keep an old version on my machine in
case there is a problem with the new one because I have an ancient
system (10.4.11).

Chuck,

Thanks for the message. I tried your suggestion. I see that version 1.5.4 appeared in my applications but when I try to open it I still get the same message that it is trying to install 1.5.3. I moved all of my older versions to trash and tried again- same result. I will try shutting down and re-booting to see if that helps. If you have any other ideas I'd be grateful.

Trash the prefs (com.HairerSoft.AmadeusPro.plist in Library/Preferences), this
should fix it. Regards,

Martin,

Thanks for the reply. I got the 1.5.4 version to install after I re-booted and your suggestion about the lib/prefs (though I only found it by doing a Finder search, couldn't see it when opening the HD) got rid of the "install" window. many thanks. I'm looking forward to getting on with my sound art. Have been recommending this program to lots of sound artists.

Best wishes,
Steve S.

Chuck,

Re-boot worked and I got the message for the "install" window to stop by doing what Martin suggested below. Many thanks. I hope this helps other too.
