Reaper ARM version crashing with some non-ARM plugins
Posting this in the MacOS category hoping there is a setting I am missing, but possibly a bugreport.
I'm running the Reaper ARM version on a Macbook pro M1. I use a couple of plugins a lot that are not yet M1 native (Arousor LT, Lindell 902 de-esser, and Neural DSP Nolly).
If I add the plugins (in VST3 format) to an FX chain they usually load fine (takes a bit longer to load than native plugins but no worries). However, if I drag a chain with one or more non-native plugins from one track onto another (command drag in arrangement view), I almost always get the beachball and I have to force-quit Reaper. It's confusing because the (bridged) plugins load fine sometimes, but crash Reaper in other situations.
Because of this issue, I keep switching between Rossetta mode on and off (most plugins run better in ARM mode), but the crashing is just such a buzzkill.
Is there any setting I am missing that would prevent these crashes? Or am I stuck on Rosetta mode until all plugins are updated?
Thanks in advance for any feedback/tips.
P.S.: Some of these plugins work without crashing if I use their AU versions (ex. arousor lt), for others there is no difference with the VST3 versions. I'd also like to stick to using the VST3 versions for futureproofing/comptatibility reasons.
