I have two MacBooks, a 1 1/2 year old MacBook and a very new MacBook Pro. Both are running OS X 10.6.1 I'm using Reaper 3.11 with POD Farm 1.11, using version 4.2.4 of the audio/midi driver. As far as I can see, both machines are configured the same way. I have better buggy process selected.
Reaper and POD Farm work fine on the older MacBook. But on the newer MacBook Pro, Reaper crashes when I add the POD Farm FX to a track and then close the FX window. This happened every time with the AU effect, but not with the VST. The VST UI would not paint properly and didn't respond to menu selections. But the plugin seemed to work.
I tried again with Reaper 3.12rc and now both the AU and VST plugins cause Reaper to crash when the FX window is closed.
Some additional information: POD Farm works fine on the MacBook Pro in Garage Band. Reaper 3.12 released today still has the problem.
