Encountered Smack Bug !!!

[Redhouse_Janke]

A strange thing happened with Smack the other day, anybody else had the same problem?
When using Smack on multiple channels, they seem to hook up to eachother.
For example, tweaking the threashhold on the snare-smack, the threashold on the bass-smack move too. When bypassing it, I can see which other smack it affects. They simply paired up all over the mix. Removing one of them, the other one would freeze.

Bugfix please Digi !!
Using ver 1.02. Doesn´t seem to be any update for this straange behavoir yet.
Works nice when it works though.

I'd like some more information about when you see this bug. Is it on Mac or Windows or both? RTAS, TDM or both? Are you using a control surface? Which one? Are you using automation? What automation mode are you in? Do you see the controls moving in linked fashion, or is it just that the audio is effected similarly?

Thanx for answering.
I will try to reconstruct the scenario when it occoured, and get back to you

Ok !
First Here´s our setup

We´re running
Mac OSX ver 10.3.7
Mac G5 dual 2,0 with 2.5 Gb RAM
ProTools HD3Accel ver 6.7 cs 7
Command 8

Here is how it not works. We´re not using automation. The problem occours when you use both RTAS and TDM Smacks on Audiotracks.
RTAS hooks up with TDM smacks. The knobs move simultanously on both plugs, and the sound is affected aswell. Removing either one makes the other one freeze. Removing the rtas, and putting it back again, rtas hooks up with another TDM. It doesnt happen every time though.
Luckily it did when we tried. We had 8 rtas and 16 tdm smacks up when we did the test.
We tried to do the test again, but then the problem didnt occour.

Another bug is that the input leds are stuck, lit all the way up on some rtas smacks. and both input and outputs are stuck on the TDMs.

Thank you for taking notice of my thread, and I hope the information can be of some help.

Confirmed as a bug under 6.7cs7 XP.

Create 2 stereo tracks.. instantiate a stereo Smack! on both tracks.. one TDM and the other RTAS and moving the controls on either moves the same control on the other.

Switching the RTAS to TDM locks up the original TDM instance.
