This VST works fine in other DAWs. The other formats of this plugin (AU, VST3) work fine in Waveform.

Edit: In addition, the following plugins also crash Waveform:

Waves Element VST
Waves IR-L VST
Waves MetaFilter VST
Waves Tune LT VST
SoundToys Little Plate AU

Hope this helps!

I have the same issue with Codex VST 2.

I don´t use any Waves Plugins, but I noticed a lot of crashes with Fabfilter Pro-Q2...

Both (Waves and Fabfilter) are openGL based GUI´s... perhaps it´s something related to this???
