System Specifications- OS Version: macOS 10.14.5
- REAPER Version: 5.979
Description of issue:- Expected behaviour: Reaper updates channel count on VST3 plugins.
"Inform plug-ins when track channel count changes" is on.
- What actually occurs: Reaper appears to be giving information to plugins which potentially can cause a crash, or cause improper I/O mapping.
Steps to reproduce the issue:
There are two ways to reproduce this.
Softube Console 1- Insert Softube Console 1
- Observe plugin I/O - Should Read 3/2
- Set track count to 4
With a track channel count of >2, Softube Console 1 will instead produce an I/O scheme of 2/1. (This makes the right channel sidechain the left channel)
The channel count should be n+1/n.
Izotope Ozone- Insert Izotope Ozone (Latest as of this post)
- Set track count to 4
Reaper will now crash. This happens with any Izotope product I tried that has sidechain capability.
Originally I thought this was a Console 1 bug, however the ability to crash Reaper with Izotope products may indicate it's something Reaper can deal with?
I was unable to find another DAW that behaves similar to Reaper in this regard.
I did see that many plugins update their I/O count as expected, without error.
