[mxxx 6.01b2] crossover module crashes when in hybrid mode and in multichannels?

[salatmensch]

hiya,

if i put the crossover module in the signal path and try to set the filter style to "hybrid mode" and mxxx to 7.1, then reaper will crash. the same happens with "linear phase" mode.

if it is in stereo mode everything is fine, though, as well as in "analog mode" in multichannels.

one suggestion. with the crossover module it's kind of difficult to know where the signal is actually going through. i tried to build a 4 band compressor. so i was using three crossovers. the first crossover is fine. the problems start with the other two. to have enough space to attach two compressors to the second crossover the third crossover doesn't get the signal from the first crossover because i had to shift it to the third column. so i have to manually tell the third crossover to use the second output of the first crossover. which is ok but this step is kind of visually not obvious or not clear enough as it could be. i imagine making a wrong routing is a very easy thing to do.

and by the way: how do i implement a button to mute / unmute certain bands?

also: whereas the dynamics module presents metering for all input channels (front, rear, ...), the limiter module doesn't. might be useful to add that.

bests,

ah,
sorry. i just realized that the multiband behaviour can be achieved easier with adding bands to the topmost frequency graph. there i have my muting and solo.

Yaj, I'll check it out!

Hmmm, I don't really follow.
- with main crossover: just create the up to 6 bands and put a compressor in each band
- with the crossover processor: add it, set number of outputs (up to 4) and that's it

and by the way: how do i implement a button to mute / unmute certain bands?

Well there are "mute" and "solo" parameters of the crossover processor I guess (as I can see you already discovered). Note that you can also simply attach a multiparameter to band volume, when you then make it "switch mode" multiparameter, it will just switch between 2 values. This is even better, because it will smoothly transition between the minimum and maximum volume, mute/solo buttons won't (just in case it shall be used for automation or somethings...)

also: whereas the dynamics module presents metering for all input channels (front, rear, ...), the limiter module doesn't. might be useful to add that.

Added to to-do list, we'll see .

hiya,
thanks for the reply.

thanks for noting that the crossover-module supports 4 outputs. i thought it only has two outputs. that makes everything soo much easier (than trying to add 3 crossovers to end up with 4 bands). and also thanks for the hint with the multislider/switch-solution.
