I do experience the issue where it loses focus after selecting a style or generating tracks, but as soon as I click the main screen or press Alt+tab it comes to the top immediately. We will look into that.


Hi Andrew, did all that, but things go wrong after addressing an RT-ridden MGU with in my case 2/4 and 4/4 bar counts. Pressed Generate LoL. The chords won't display, and the VST disappears as said. It works with an other MIDI only SGU and a 4/4 MGU however.

Generating that SGU: Takes a while, and a a fully RT ridden MGU however takes almost forever, and hangs for a while at about 80%.

I addressed two other recently made MGU's with 2/4 and 4/4 bars in it: that also gives the above error message each time ...

Sometimes the plugin disappears from view, while loading, but not always.

Loading the MGU with the disappearing GUI: I waited it out till all the yellow green popups are finished, if it works ... and only then bring up the VST: plays OK solo-ed sound and all.
Starting Cubase playback: the bar indicator follows, but NO SOUND.

====> ONE IMPORTANT TIP: SHORTEN THE DISPLAYED NAME OF THE VST, (remove 'DAW PLUGIN' in the naming f.i.) it doesn't always display fully in the inspector in CUBASE, the name is quite long compared to other VSTs IMO.
