Reaper crashes on rendering

webfreak1364 · 09-25-2016, 01:15 AM

Hey there,

as all threads I found on this topic just ended, when the user should provide a dump-file or something like that, I opened a new thread.

As mentioned in the topic, Reaper crashes always when I want to render a mixed project.
I use plugins from different programmers, some are Waves plugins, some LePou and so on. Reaper is on 5.25, so that shouldn't be a problem. I also tried downgrading to 5.18 and completely uninstall it and reinstall it too.

Here's a link to a dump and the events from eventviewer: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yuzav3yjq1...vents.zip?dl=0

I hope you can help me

Thank you in advance,

EDIT:

Bug-reproduction:

1. Start Reaper with an project you used many times before
2. Try to render a .wav or a MP3
3. watch it crash without error message immediately after you clicked "Render 1 item"

Yesterday i rendered a lot of small files, as i ususally do. Since i use reaper, it never crashed at rendering. But yesterday was the first time, in the middle of rendering a file everything stopped and the process has to be stopped.
installed 5.25 2 days ago i think. sorry i have no logfile. greetz

I see from your list of plugins there you have Leslie Sandford?
I had exactly the same issue and from the event viewer (go to it after a crash) I could see it was the Sandford Reverb causing the crash. (I had gotten as far as creating a post here like you..

..

So take a look at the event viewer to identify the plug in.. if your using Sandford Reverb, that will be it.. ill bet ya.. ;-)
Good luck
Cheers

Thank you.

The most of the time it crashes (I have some other Problems with crashing because of Waves plugins) because of this DLL: ucrtbase.dll

A quick search on Google allows me just to say the following: something is programmed in C and needing this DLL to work as this DLL is an universal C-Runtime.

Another error is when cancelling the rendering, then Repaer also crashes, because of this DLL: ntdll.dll

And there is one more: Torpedo Wall Of Sound can cause this problem too as it seems.

I will try to track all errors down even more to provide helpful intel to the developers of Reaper and the specific plugins.

EDIT: had a nice conversation on the phone with Two Notes. They will try to fix that within a few days.

But still open what's the problem with ucrtbase.dll ...

In my case the way that Reaper crashes is that I click "render" and then there is simply no reaction at all, the rendering pop does not open as it is supposed to and nothing happens.
Surprised as you are, you just click somewhere to see what is going on and then it shows a "no reaction" error message and I have to close the program.

What normally helps, is to click "Render", have the "Render to file" pop up open, but then do not click "Render 1 file" right away, but wait a second, touch and move the whole "Render to file" popup and then go ahead.

Closing unexpectedly here because of this: ucrtbase.dll

Not rendering at all!

Still doing this! Using Repro-1 and it keeps crashing. Event viewing shows ucrtbase.dll is the fault.

Any ideas?

I am using a GTX970, wonder if it's anything to do with that?

Hi,

probably a bit of a long shot, but I was tearing my hair out for weeks over crashes like the one you describe (and others) and from what it looks like, it boiled down to the "Wall of Sound" plugin, which I guess is what you have in there as well.

Ever since I took it out (I just did "freeze stereo up to selected plugin") it's behaving now. Haven't had a crash since. I reported it to two-notes, let's see what they say.

Kind regards

P.S.: you can read a little about how I went bug hunting here:
