Here's what I've discovered... First, as I said above, I updated my
Platinum Instrument Collection from
1.0.0.10 to
1.0.0.15 at the same I time went to
2016.10. Maybe that was a big mistake. Because now, every project that has an instrument loaded from that collection (usually "TruePianos" or "Lounge Lizard" ) I get a crash the instant I hit play, every time. If I load the project in safe mode and skip all synths that are from the Platinum Instrument Collection, then I get no crash. The only rollback version offered for those Instruments is to
1.0.0.10. I have tried to roll back to that version with the Command Center. It says it successfully completes but still reports version
1.0.0.15 is installed. So, in that regard I have no idea what's going on. So maybe it wasn't
2106.10 after all. At this point I don't know what to blame, but in future I'll be updating only one component at a time.
