Spoke too soon (Plogue Bidule)

[who]

Unfortunately, Pro Tools and Plogue Bidule don't want to play nicely. Here are my experiences:

Attempt 1: Launched PT, created a stereo aux track, inserted "Plogue Bidule Divice" as a multi-mono plugin (Bidule launches automatically) and assigned Bidule output 1 to the left input and Bidule output 2 to the right input

In Bidule I created a VST instrument and made the necessary audio and midi connections, then I started Bidule (you have to tell Bidule to start working) and my computer locked up.

Attempt 2: Same as above, but this time I engaged Bidule's "play" function before making any connections in PT. As soon as I tried to set the Bidule output in Pro tools, my computer locked up again.

Well, back to the drawing board.

Hi there

Yes we are aware of the problem. We are trying to find a solution for this, but since we dont have
Protools hardware it might prove difficult.
We've successfully tested our ReWire device on most other hosts out there but this one.
Under Windows we think its the digi drivers that conflicts with our low level connection brigde, because even using ASIO DIGI drivers and SX, a user reported the same crashes, whereas this same user on the same machine, but running m-audio drivers had good results.

On a side note we'dd love to get OSX reports about this Device.
