Pro Q Crashes/Freezes Often

Post by ttaylorsaxe » Sat Dec 14, 2013 1:45 pm

Hi All,

I'm working on a stereo wave file 24 48. I'm trying to dial in the EQ with Pro Q and it crashes or freezes almost constantly when I change settings or use the analyzer. MY CPU never goes over 30 and I can't figure out why this keeps happening. I'm on an iPad 4 with ample space free. When this happens, everything freezes and I've got to close out Auria completely.

Anybody else experiencing this ?

Thanks,
T

This happens to me as well, especially if I enable the analyser. It happens almost every time I use Pro Q.

Ipad 4 64GB with plenty of free space.

Well, that's "good" to know. Thanks for verifying!

Fabfilter is aware of the problem, and they will address it in the next update. It happens in iOS7 if you leave the spectrum analyzer on for too long.

iOS 7 has put a real damper on my entire workflow with Auria and my iPad 2. Seriously considering a new laptop instead of another iPad. Too unpredictable. I really regret updating.

hm, haven't worked lately with Auria and Pro-Q. In pre-iOS7 times such things never occurred.

Thanks for reporting!

Yep, there's an old thread about this already. I've let FabFilter know and they said they're working on an update.

Happens in iOS 6.1.3 (on an iPad 4) as well...not limited to iOS 7.

Curious, how do IAP updates happen? Does it have to wait until Auria is updated as well? Does it happen automatically? Are you notified somehow?

MikeDee, OK, thanks for letting me know, I'll pass that along.

IAPs can only be added with a new app version. This is how Apple's model works. All IAPs are already built into the app, and purchasing one just unlocks it.

If you subscribe to our email list, we'll let you know as soon as we release a new version.

Thanks,
Rim

Same thing is happening to me. It's not just Pro-Q though, everytime I try and use Pro-DS everything freezes and I have to close Auria. This is with less than 25% CPU.
Very frustrating as I've only experienced this problem since I purchased the 2 fabfilters (Pro-Q and Pro-DS), and cannot use them at all.

This bug affects all Fabfilter plugins which use a spectrum analyzer. I let them know about this, and I assume they are working to fix it.

wanna be on that email list (pro q bug)
knappomat@gmail.com

I got that right that all I have to do then is to "restore" my IAP ?

Once they fix this, I will add it to the next Auria update, and all you'll need to do is update Auria to see the fix.
