Hi!
Ever since I switched machines Cerberus has been causing crashes. Most often instantaneous, but I've been able to open it in an empty project. Also tried Rosetta w/o any luck. Any ideas?
M2 Macbook Pro
Sonoma
Logic 10.8.1
Cerberus causing crashes in Logic

I know this post is a year old now but it was one of the top results when I searched for this issue, so I thought I'd share my solution.
I had the same problem after formatting my Macbook and reinstalling.
Turns out it appears to be related to saved Channel Strip settings rather than the Cerberus plugin in itself.
To fix it, open your Logic project and immediately hold 'Control' then select 'Launch Without Audio Units' to open in safe mode.
If you remove the Cerberus plugin and then save, you should be able to open the project normally and then add Cerberus again.
However, if you try to open an old Channel Strip setting which has Cerberus on it, then the project will crash
