Silencer on Windows 11

[albee1952]

Is anyone else using this plugin on Windows 11? I have the demo and like it a lot, but it basically freezes things whenever the plugin is open on the screen. With the plugin window closed, everything runs fine. With an instance open on the screen, if I hit a SOLO button, that track gets solo'd, but the button doesn't turn yellow for 5-8 seconds. Same thing with any MUTE button. The playback cursor also freezes(along with meters) and I can't select or highlight any audio clips. As soon as the plugin window is closed, everything goes right back to normal. I have a support request in with the company but so far, the only suggestion they had was to try running with only a single screen, so I disconnected 2 screens and ran the same test with the same result. This is the only plugin I have that causes this issue.

Silencer seems to be a Gate plugin!?
I was actually looking for a good Gate plugin some time ago, but haven’t found one yet. I’ve managed to get by somehow, but it would be great to have a good Gate plugin.
I don’t have any experience with the plugin in question, but otherwise, yes, I’m using WIN 11. I’ll wait to see what other users have to say.

Instead I would choose this Pro-G
gate/expander: https://www.fabfilter.com/products#mixing-and-mastering
Flexible gate/expander plug-in € 169

Just for info, that I startid with FabFilter Pro-G 30-day Trial. Probably I will grab this if it fits my needs. If needed, I may report back my thoughts.
EDIT. After few tests I can confirm, that it works well with WIN 11.

Still no solution to the graphics issue, but I have to say its a really good gate.

We are using Silencer with Windows 11. I don't recall any issues I've had with it. We are still on Ultimate 2024.6 with HDX. Let me talk to my studio partner and see if he's had any issues.

Talked to my studio partner - we have Silencer version 1.0.1 installed. No graphics issues, but it has thrown a 9093 error on occasion. Looks like BSA is on version 1.1.4. I'll download and install when I can and see if there's any further errors.

Thanks for the update. At this point, I have exhausted all suggestions and am giving up for now.

I have version 1.1 and it's working fine. I'm using Blackhole. What are you using?
