Hi. Anyone have any updates on this? Long time since I’ve had to debug a MIDI FX plugin but not having any luck on M3.

If it’s not an esoteric multi-threading issue, maybe you can find the bug caveman-style by skipping the debugger, blank out key parts of your code such as processBlock(), prepareToPlay(), paint(), timerCallback() and/or constructors until the thing loads without crashing. Then gradually add stuff back in until you find the offending line.

Has anyone found a way to get this to work? I’m also using silicon and would like to be able to debug step-by-step with my DAW of choice (Logic). Please do reply!
