Yamaha XS8 in Remote mode

Hello 
I have been setting up my XS8 to control Sonar using Mackie control. For the most part everything works great. However, when I go into the Assignment page and then click on the plugins tab Sonar is crashing. Anyone else experience something like this?  I appreciate any help. 
Thanks

    Some plugin parameters can crash Sonar when using the Mackie Control. This is a problem with the plugin rather than Sonar.
     
    It's really a matter of trial and error to find out what parameters are the issue. Once you've found the offending parameter, the easiest thing to do is create a parameter map within MackieControl.ini with this parameter missing. That way, it will never try to access it in future.
     
    Most plugins are ok though, with a notable exception of the Sonar Track Compressor's "Type" parameter. Azslow3 wrote a workaround for this, which I updated to support CbB as well. You can download it here:
     
    https://github.com/msmcleod/Cakewalk-Control-Surface-SDK/blob/master/Bin/x64/MackieControl.dll
     
    (Note: in Windows 10, after copying this over the old one, you'll have to "unblock" the DLL by right-clicking, selecting properties, and unblocking it).
     
    Also, using automation with the Mackie Control dialog open can also crash Sonar.

    Thanks so much for the reply , I have loaded the new .dll and will let you know how this works out for me. This problem was occurring  for me without loading any plugins so I think it is associated with the pro channel or something.  I really appreciate your time!!  
    Thanks again
