BF Essential Tuner issue

[jgehring]

Anyone else have problems with this plug? It'll work fine for me when I first put it in but if I go back to tune after a few takes it just "spinning beach ball"s my session til I can't stand it anymore. It won't crash; I was able to recover once after about 10 minutes of waiting & removing the plug. I believe I have the most recent version of BF Essentials, rest of system is:

PTLE 7.1
OSX 10.4.8
G4 Dual 1.42 PowerMac
1.5GB RAM

It really is a handy tool when composing on DI'd guitar so I'd love to find a fix...

I've had the same issue a few times as well. I now just use the tuner when needed and then immediately take it out of the inserts menu. Kinda a pain, but better than the spinning wheel of death. Also better than all the 9v batteries I used to go through....

Thanks Yuma - I guess I'll just have to remove it when not in use. So no one else then?

Same problem here, but unfortunately I also don't have a solution for you.
