*ALERT* Blue Cat RTAS freebies cause problems!
Installed Blue Cat Audio's free bundle yesterday and today I find that when I open a large session that I have been sporadically working on for weeks, some of the plugin UIs refuse to load and TL Space would not display pictures. I moved all of the Blue Cat plugins and folders to the unused folder and everything works properly again.
WinXP-sp3, PT 7.4cs10

Re: *ALERT* Blue Cat RTAS freebies cause problems!
interesting. first, they stated they are still in beta so might be worth a run to their forum real quick.
i have not had any issues. i was running them in a couple large sessions trying them on different things. the mixes were about done so i did not save them or anything, just a/b ing w them. maybe i will give it a try and see what happens.

Jimmy, Have you used them in the VST wrapper?

Re: *ALERT* Blue Cat RTAS freebies cause problems!
Yeah Tom, I've had the wrapped versions for some time.
I officially announce that I cannot conclusively blame Blue Cat Audio's free RTAS bundle as the sole culprit. I am of a mind that installing the bundle somwhow was the straw that broke the camel's back. Due to a number of other peculiarities, I think it's time to reformat and reinstall XP.

I may go ahead and move from the wrapper into RTAS and see what happens, Of course after a fresh clone.

Re: *ALERT* Blue Cat RTAS freebies cause problems!
It's been a year and a half and I'm back to claim that the Blue Cat Freeware Pack is indeed involved with a negative plugin inter-relationship. Though to be fair, it's not the only one involved.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCdKpfjDQig UPDATE There's more to the story. It turns out that the Blue Cat Audio stuff if actually just a minor player in the scene. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJUDh0sjcAs DUC thread here: http://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=304002 _

Re: *ALERT* Blue Cat RTAS freebies cause problems!
Since the time we last spoke of this I have removed the Blue Cat Bundle so, I can't really say anything for sure (negative or otherwise)... other than things are fine without it. Maybe I'll put 'em back again and see, I remember liking them.
