Well, in the weekend i worked some projects and i have problem to reopen them as SFP crashed. I solved it by opening (and leave open) the Dsp usage panel!!!

Recently I encountered a different problem that is a project file related. While saving a long term project, after some tweaks made, sfp crashed and the file disappeared from my hd. Fortunatelly I had a backup option enabled in the SFP so had to tweak only some things instead of rebuilding the whole project from scratch. So beware of crashes: enable the 'backup copies' option or duplicate the project file you are about to overwrite

Few weeks ago I had another strange crash.
I was drawing an extreme pitch envelope for a drum sound in Battery2/Cubase. When I want to play the sound, the whole system crashes and reboot.
After the reboot the menus of sfp had changed
from the original, like software I/Os, Synths etc. to windows folders, like desktop or other folders of my root HD.

I can´t tell you why windows mixed up the things. Maybe anyone had the same wonder?

Anyway, it was a good time to go from 3.1c to SFP4.

no bug, but the consequence of HUGE disk caches as they are usual today.
it's the inability of the OS and the malfunction of drivers to handle the data appropriately (and not only fast...)

my 2 cents, Tom
