Currently Spire VST3 is not usable for me with Ableton Live (for sure latest version, stable Windows Workstation)

I struggled a little bit because I have big projects, but then it was very clear:

Create a fresh project. Put Spire VST3 on a track. Create a clip. Now send some Midi CC -> Crash

Tested with Pitch Bend Modulation Wheel etc.

Workaround. Remove all Midi CC.

Because i have and will have a lot of modulations on my tracks, its not working for me.

If its working on your setups, then let me know please because that's one of my favorite plugins.

The VST3 seems to crash regularly - especially on Apple Silicon

Please make sure to update your VST3 to the latest build - 5270 and contact support@reveal-sound.com if you encounter any issues. Thanks!

I have - installed and it crashed almost straight away

Also it doesn't migrate projects etc from the VST2 version

Awesome, I didn't know there was a new build.

VST3 version (build 6265) is sometimes a bit buggy here (Cubase 12, Windows 10)... Spire does not show an updated version, so expect it to be the latest build?
Volume level sometimes 100% after inserting plugin. Cubase also crashed after I removed the VST3 version and inserted the VST2 version. I would not use it in projects at this point and stick with the VST2 version....

THX. I've updated to the latest build. Now it works very well within Ableton Live. Also the initialization is faster. Replaced round about 40 instances with Save preset -> Load Preset approach.

Working in Cubase, although I also use Spire within PluginGury Unify (multiple patches) and the VST3 version doesn't work in Unify, as in, no sounds play! Very weird, it's receiving data, but can't hear anything, if I load VST2 version, it's fine.
I have raised this with Unify support, would be good if anyone else has Unify to check if they are having the same issue please and report back here.
Unsure if this is a Unify problem or Spire, which is working fine in Cubase Pro 12.

The VST2 and VST3 versions do not have shared favorites to avoid data integrity issues.

Im running latest version of spire VST3(built 5270), plugin seems to be working alright, but preset loading is very very sluggish. VST2 version preset loading is instant. is there something i could do about it?
