Can you tell me a way to reproduce these crahses? I did a quick test with latest LS VST and Qtractor, and it seemed to work ok.

Case 1

(I just discovered when I was looking for my previous one.)

* Start Qtractor;
* Connect MIDI keyboard to Qtractor MIDI Master In bus;
* Add a MIDI track;
* Add LinuxSampler VSTi to the MIDI Master Out bus and activate;
* Start Fantasia;
* Load an instrument (e.g. the Maestro Grand);
* Turn on the monitoring for the MIDI bus in Qtractor;
* Play notes on the keyboard.
* Qtractor crashes!

* Add LinuxSampler VSTi to the MIDI Master Out bus and activate;
* Start Fantasia;
* Load an instrument (e.g. the Maestro Grand);
* Turn on monitoring for the MIDI track in Qtractor;
* Save session and exit;
* Qtractor locks up!

After killing Qtractor and restarting it, reopening the saved file at least works a-ok.

For some reason I can't get Qtractor/LS to produce any sound in the above cases unless I use the virtual keyboard in Fantasia.

I also added a second sample channel and loaded an instrument into it. Then recorded a MIDI track and Qtractor crash upon playback of it.

Note that if you are using the latest version of Fantasia bug #118 should also affect the VSTi plugin. Try if the problem is still there and with the latest cvs version of LinuxSampler.

BTW, I'm using the latest CVS version of LinuxSampler (I think). It's just curious that it crashes loaded into a track and not a bus when I play a note on the virtual keyboard in Fantasia.

Nope, I need to recompile everything to be sure.

Ok, this case now works. Even the playing on my master keyboard works.

But Qtractor still locks up in some cases, e.g. after removing a plugin instance and exit.

This could be due to bug #120. You can try the patch I proposed there.
