If I load a patch named as Gizeh Shimmer pad 03 RF and play it in a Reason 10.4d4 - my audio gets a dropout and can get the audio back only when re-launching Reason.
The PredatorRE version is 1.0.19

Can anyone confirm this issue please?

I dragged the patch into a default PredatorRE - no problem.
When I browse to the next patch with the little arrow in the RE, I get the same error.

Ok, I'm gonna report this to the Rob Papen team then.

[Heigen5]

Done!

I could reproduce the bug (in Reason Suite 11.3.6d3): With this patch notes up to B2 play fine and from C3 upward the bug is triggered. Changing the sample rate does reset the audio path inside of Reason so you don't have to restart it.

Sadly this is my experience with lot of Rob Papen stuff. Too many bugs. Still waiting for a fix of Compressor delay and a few i forgot over the time, because i don't use his stuff anymore.

Ok, cool - it's a confirmed by two other users now as well.
And yes, changing the samplerate does work to return the audio back.

That's a shame really, as Predator as example can produce some very nifty sounds.

Yea, i am sad to say such things, since the dev really does a good job in fixing all the bugs i reported, but at some point a new synth was more importannt. And tbh, the RP eXplorer Bundle didnt needed another synth, but it needed reliability. In my experience every time i touched any of the RP devices, especially when new released, they crashed, produced weird noises or had some other annoying bugs, so i came to the conclusion to not buy anything more from them, dont report any bugs and dont use anything from them, except for some separated sound designing which than gets bounced and fixed (like the compressor delay) into my projects.

I just got tired of too many bugs, too many exchangeable new synths, no reliability and no fixes. I'd rather had seen that all the cool features of the RP synths got into maybe 2-4 synths, or better max 2 and they would have been freaking stable and reliable...

Well, maybe at some point in future...

Win 10 64bit, Reason 11.3

Same error for me, when I play C4 key.

For fun, I loaded up Predator VST in Reason, and on the same patch it played fine, and I could play chords etc - all fine but the red output overload came on, but it still played fine. But then I changed the patch and I got popup "Hardware exception. Reason just recovered from a hardware exception. You can continue running, but we recommend that you save all open songs and restart the application".

I then tried the same with Predator VST in Reaper, and changing patch after playing the Shimmer Pad crashed Reaper. And Reaper never crashes!

Bug also present with the previous version of Predator RE _

I can confirm that V1.0.20 fixes the issue. So could a mod add a "[solved]" to the thread title, please?
