Title: Spark 1.5 crashed RML Labs' SAWStudio (and SAC as well)
Post by: MikeDee on November 01, 2012, 07:38:09 pm
Any chance of Arturia supporting SAWStudio (and possibly SAC as well)?  Free demos are on the site.  Also, Bob Lentini is an extremely talented and supportive developer.

www.sawstudio.com

www.softwareaudioconsole.com

Thanks in advance...best regards,

Mike E. Dee

Hopefully this will help Arturia resolve the issue(s)...I really would like to use Spark within my DAW (SAWStudio) environment.

Thanks again,

Mike

Can you explain me how to load Spark in these DAW?
I will try to reproduce the issue.

Sure, Kevin.  Thanks for replying!   :)

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate with Service Pack 1.  Since SAWStudio and SAC must run (and thus have been installed) in Windows XP SP 2 Compatibility mode, I have since uninstalled and reinstalled Spark 1.5 in the same mode.  I continue to experience the same crash issue.

Although I can run the stand-alone version (Spark.exe) without issue, the Spark MIDI Control Center crashes.  >:(
(I can send a crash dump, if need be.)

Thanks for your assistance!  :)

Hi,
I have no VST listed in FX Choices

Post by: MikeDee on November 08, 2012, 06:12:26 pm
I know why, Kevin....

Please copy or move Spark.dll from the C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins folder (or wherever it was installed) to the C:\SAWStudio\VST_PlugIns folder...also to the C:\SAC\VST_PlugIns folder if you're testing SAC as well.

Sorry...4got that li'l detail.   :o

Kevin, since you're most likely using the demo versions of SAWStudio and SAC to test Spark, the two folders I just mentioned might actually be:

C:\SAWStudioDemo\VST_PlugIns

and

C:\SACDemo\VST_PlugIns

Thanks again,

Mike

Ok I managed to load Spark but seems that have no audio.
I choosed my soundcard in "Options->Audio Device Setup->Stereo Device Out 01"  but nothing happens.
Any idea?

Kevin, how were you able to load Spark into SAWStudio?  I was able to do so by loading it within Xlutop Chainer, which acted as a wrapper for the Spark.dll.  However, I, too, could not get any audio.  Neither the standard Windows audio driver nor the ASIO driver made a difference.

If you contact Bob Lentini directly -- BobL@rmllabs.com -- and/or post on the SAWStudio User Group --
http://www.sawstudiouser.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16098 (http://www.sawstudiouser.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16098) -- we will arrive at a solution in a much more timely manner.

Thanks so much...most appreciated!  :)

Kevin and Toby -

The issue still persists with v1.6.1 (as well as 1.6.1.1 RC1 and RC2).  Hopefully we can resolve it in 1.7.  I have provided detailed instructions to test in both SAWStudio and SAC (in a prior email to Toby, who has acknowledged receipt of same).

I'll be happy to beta test 1.7.   :)

Thanks and regards,

Mike
