  • My Large project that was started in X2 won't export in X3 without crashing

Not good. I don't even get the option of submitting any error reporting since the program simply crashes. When I hover over the taskbar icon for X3, I get a hundred instances of "Runtime error".
 
Any one else?

Hey James, try unchecking Fast bounce. Maybe you did something in X3 that doesn't like the fast bounce.
Or maybe, just maybe, your playback buffers needs to be higher to help the bounce, maybe??

Save a copy of the project... and remove all plugins.
Does the mix (sans plugins) now export without crashing?

I've experienced one crash in X3a while mixing.
I had both VST3 and VST2 plugins in the same efx bin when it happened.
 
There's currently a problem where Waves VST3 plugins lose their settings (upon reloading the project).
To workaround that issue, I switch to using VST2 version of Waves plugins.  No crashes since...

Yep, that did it CJ. I then tried it again with larger buffers and that crashed it.

LOL, maybe your buff was too big. That's what she said to me :)

Any ARA clips in the project? It would be useful if you could get a dump for that crash, or submit the project file itself (with the audio) if its reproducible.

I have a project which I started in X2a which I cannot use in X3, as I get a crash every session.  I have given up on X3 until it receives a patch and am finishing the project in a very, very stable X2a.  I have sent every error report to Cakewalk.
 
I am very unimpressed that the UAD / Waves bug was not discovered before X3 was released.  I don't see how that could have been missed.
 
You could say I am disappointed and wish I had waited to buy X3.

Really? These issues only impact VST3 and we've already promised a speedy update.
I don't see how we or anyone else could be more responsive here.
 
Does your project that is crashing use waves plugins? List the CWBRN number here.
