No idea why it would cut out with the VST2 version, but there is a reason for this to happen in the VST3 version.
Go to Cubase preferences > VST > plugins.
There is an option called "Suspend VST3 plug-in processing when no audio signals are received".
If this is active, then Cubase will kill the audio after a few seconds of inactivity.
If you want to use the VST3 version, I'd definitely recommend disabling this preference setting.
If this wasn't the cause for the issue, then please contact our support, so we can figure it out. We might need some more details about the problem.

Yes, you're right on this. I thought I'd swapped VST3 for VST2, but I was still on 3. Gonna have another play now that I can render stuff out!

Are you maybe using very short delay times?
We had to smooth the Panic button to avoid clicks, so there is a very short fade when you press the button. But this might only be noticed if one is using delay times like 0.01s or so.
Maybe we can make the fade a bit shorter, but I can't promise anything.

It works the same on Mac and Win. Click the main display and choose 'enter serial number'. But once a user has entered the beta serial, the option won't be displayed anymore.

Did not experience this issue yet.
If you find a way to reproduce it, please lemme know.

Update: Ha, I think I found out why this can happen.
If the host stops processing audio, then it won't update the milliseconds display until the host continues to process.
E.g. in Cubase, if you are using the VST3 version and have the already mentioned "stop plugin processing with no audio input" activated.
Or in Reaper, as long as there are no tracks in the project, and the plugin resides on the master track, with the host not playing.

The rate knob acts the same, no matter if you move it with the mouse, or if you are using a MIDI CC control, or automate it in your host.
And the pitch shift is always just momentarily, as long as the rate value is changed.
Afaik, the sample rate is only changed for the delay path when turning the rate knob, this is not affecting the dry signal at all.
What host and MIDI controller are you using?
If the MIDI CC changes the pitch of the dry signal permanently, there is only one idea I have:
Could it be that the same CC control is also assigned to the pitch of the synth/instrument you are feeding into ColourCopy?
So that while you turn the rate knob of ColourCopy, the pitch of the synth is changed at the same time?

I only tried it with FL Studio 12.5 and FL Studio 20, and it works fine in both.
Can you maybe update to a newer version of FL Studio and try again?
Or just try to load ColourCopy again in FL 12.2.
FL Studio is a bit weird at times, sometimes spitting out the wildest errors, and then suddenly working fine again the next minute.

Sorry, but the favourites are saved in the preset database file of the user, thus it's not possible to save them with a soundset.

Type 5: Sandstorm

Purple Rain
Mr Blue Sky
Green Onions

Obviously not, because the type 5 colour is not yellow...

I think if you name them after songs or bands people will naturally assume "oh, this is an emulation of the delay effect in Purple Rain" or "weird, I don't really associate Deep Purple with delays, I wonder what song that's referencing." Generic color names, fruits, or numbers, avoid that.

Heck, even "blue" plus "bucket brigade" makes me think "Boss CE-2 chorus BBD," so I kind of like the idea of fruit names as someone here already suggested.

Yese, and because my list in the page 1 refer to the fruits, one may think that the preset makes him a fruit...
