Glad to help! Really threw me for a loop too. 
 
Must say, I'm not usually excited about plugins being included in updates as I have a ton. I did not have a LP EQ though, and now I can sell my LP MB from Waves so these are welcome additions...

After I chose "check now" it came up. But the new eq and multi compressor shows a blank screen.
Anyone else experience this? Thanks 



Both the new plugins have issues... :

The EQ crash on my system fails to load, and blank screen as you describe it.

EDIT : The MB Compressor silent's the audio, when used in a project with softsynth's
           But not when i tested it with one, stereo file in a new project

need bug fixes...

The TH3 seems to work so far..




Same here!

The new LP MB and LP EQ plugs look great. I love the way they are set up. From what I can tell, they sound great, too. Unfortunately, I can only use it in non linear or low mode. Anything else causes stuttering totally bogged down audio. My system isn't the most powerful but, I think it's pretty average and it's a shame these new plugs won't work correctly. (Intel i5, 8 gigs of RAM, NVidea G620 video card)
I'm hoping Cake can optimize these and make them useable on average systems like mine (And many others I would suspect).

In Linear mode they are Mastering style plugins (obviously).  What has been your experience using then on a single Imported Mixed down track?  
 
Or is the issue that you are using them at the end of a project that has a number of other plugs/synths?

Yes, I am very disappointed about the new plug ins. Haven't heard much about a solution other that upgrading the drivers on the graphics card or in my case, getting a new laptop altogether. Not gone do it. All the updates worked great last year on my system so I don't know what's the difference in these new EQ's.
 
Hard to believe after the in-house testing and the early release it still checked out. Everyone gave it a thumbs up, yep, we're good on graphics let 'er rip! LOL! I'm just picturing a programmer with a few nuts and bolts still in his hands scratching his head. These guys are WAY smarting than I'll ever be and I'm sure it's a difficult thing to pull off but I bought something you were selling and I'm disappointed it's not working.
 
Still love my Cake! Cheers.

Brian Walton: Tried them on a single, imported, mixed track, same experience.

Wow.   That sounds like a big issue then as your specs should be more than adequate to run such a feature set.

Yeah, there's something other than pure available resources coming into play...   I'm able to run both plugins using the specs shown in my signature.   The non-LP mode of course does run "cleaner" on my system, but as long as I'm not making constant adjustments even in LP mode they work well and the UI displays nicely.    Hopefully the bakers can figure out where that commonality lies...

I also updated to the latest driver for my video card. No luck.
