The new Sonar has re-introduced the insert a UAD plugin while track is playing fiasco.  I can work around it but it sure was nice when this was fixed and you were able to do this on the FLY.  Last time, it was something between UAD and the Bakers... lots of banter back and forth on the cause.  but finally it was worked out between the two vendors....
 
This time, when I tried to insert/delete a UAD plugin on the fly... it totally took over the mouse pointer and I couldn't even navigate to END TASK, answer any dialog boxes etc.... forced me to do a HARD SHUTDOWN.
 
Like I said, not a show stopper just a interface behavior I have to manage again.  NOTE TO SELF: Stop the audio before editing inserts in a FX bin with UAD plugins.

PS - could be just my system but this was an old bug that appears to me to have snuck back into SONAR.

Oh I am glad I dont insert/delete UAD plugins on the fly I am curious why someone do this?

I'm always cautious about insertions with devices where you have to go outside SONAR to hardware, like UA, Duende, etc. I'll check this out and see what happens.

So, I guess I have a fast work pace... listening to a guitar track in the mix and thinking, man, would this sound good with an ECHOPLEX..... music playing.... move mouse to insert bin, pick fx... find the echoplex.. hit enter... DISASTER.... it was fixed in a previous release but it is happening to me again. Just x'plaining why I do this.
 
Craig, thanks for following up.

No problem. But once you check out my Vintage Tape Echo FX chain, you might end up reaching for that instead...

Sorry to say I just did what you said and DID NOT have any problems.

BAPU... thanks for checking it out and don't be sorry it could be my machine.
 
 

Since BAPU tested this and could NOT duplicate it, I got brave and tried to duplicate it myself.... NADA, nothing, worked like a charm so, perhaps this was just a ONE UP kind of thing and NO WORRIES.  I will keep my fingers crossed.
 
Thanks again BAPU.

Mr. Anderton,
 
I did try your VINTAGE ECHO FX preset and I did like how it sounded but perhaps too good for the vintage vibe but definitely great for some RETRO PROG music.
 
Keep em coming.

I was able to insert UAD's while playing as well.
 
Using ASIO?
