Weird. I've been running the plug-ins for a little over a week on a circa 2012 HP laptop and an i7 PC Audio Labs desktop with a primitive AMD graphics card, and everything works up to spec.

Anyone running into blank screen issues with the plugins, please report the OpenGL version using a utility such as this one:
 
http://www.ozone3d.net/gpu_caps_viewer/
 
It also has tests so you can see how your system responds.  Some drivers may implement OpenGL using Software which may explain hangs/high cpu etc.  We're working to collect info on this so we can better respond to allow it to work as best as can be across a broad range of systems.
 
Thanks.

This is indeed strange, do you see anything out of the ordinary with my system specs? I am still running Windows 7.

yes I just opened both at the same time and no issues either.
 
you possibly may see if there is an update for your GeForce GT 730.
my only theory is your graphics card needs an update and that's what crashing sonar, not the plug ins.
just give a look and see if theres an update needed.

Has anyone opened both on a Windows 7 OS?

By the way Charlie, did you pin the LP MB prior to opening the LP EQ?

Something I haven't thought of, maybe this is happening with all of my plugins.

Nope, I just tried four different plugins including both VST2 and VST3 plugins and they all work fine.

I was able to open and pin the original LP-64 EQ followed by the new LP MB without an issues. I was also able to reverse the process without any issues. I just cannot open and pin the two new plugins. What is different about these two plugins? I can open two Waves VST3 plugins and pin them both. Has anyone opened these on a Windows 7 system?

I inserted the LP MB and pinned the plugin. I then inserted the LP EQ and Sonar froze. I had to kill the program using Task Manager. I also had to log off and back on to completely kill the SONARPLT.exe process. It appears you can only have one of the plugins visible at a time. I was able to duplicate the bug.


I have the same problem. Inserted LP MB plugin into a project and everything worked as normal. I then deleted that plugin and inserted LP EQ  and everything worked as normal. I deleted that when I inserted LP MB and everything worked as normal, but when I inserted LP EQ Sonar froze.
 
I have Window 7 Pro, AMD graphics card is up todate, Open GL version 6.14.10.13399
