JV. Maybe it IS a bug in the pg plug in…but i have some questions. 1. When your creating your song from scratch in bb are you inserting vst’s using bb plug in feature ? if so see if removing the vst works. Sometimes ive found some plug ins are just no good and can make a crash. I always test out any new vst plug ins in several music software daws to see if the plug in is problematic. 2. Are you using 64 bit plug ins in the bb 64 bit ?
I’m a tad confused by the info given. If further pg fixes dont work for you with fruity , but do for other fruity users i would suspect it might be an issue in how things are set up/preferences etc. What usb sound interface are you using ?
To conclude over the years ive had various problematic vst’s sometimes that gave me probs.
Whether this is the reason in your case..i dont know. Finally some info on your pc might be useful so as to get a rounded picture of your rig/setup. Please note running everything on one drive can sometimes be problematic eg big vstis// sample libs on the win os drive….because of disk contention.
just putting forth some ideas in case its not a pg bug and/or bug has been addressed.
Best om

My workflow is the same as in the PG Music video for DAW Plugin in FL Studio. I.e I open the FL Studio and insert BIAB VST3 DAW Plugin in the Channel Rack. Then create the "song" basis in the DAW plugin and move the wav tracks from BIAB Plugin into the FL Studio playlist. So far so good, but after a few seconds I get the error message from FL Studio ( see above) and the FL Studio crashes.
However, if I use the BIAB Daw plugin standalone and move the wav tracks from there over to FL Studio there is no crashing. This is my workaround for the time being.
2. Are you using 64 bit plug ins in the bb 64 bit ? Yes, everything is 64 bit.

At this point ( i.e. before the crash occurs ) I am not yet using any interface. Everything is done inside FL Studio.

I have a Lenovo Legion Y540-15IRH, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz, 16 GB RAM, 500 GB Disc.

JV. Some more questions. 1. When starting a new songr in bb and arranging the chord layout/entering chords what sound device are you using to playback/test arrangement….??? Built in sound ? 2. What sound device are you using when only using fruity ? 3. Are you doing everything using the one lenovo internal drive?..ie Win OS AND programs AND music software AND vst’s on the one drive ?
I might be wrong in your case but be aware that one issue to be aware of is not to let one music software lock out another as this can be problematic.
THUS check that one music software isnt locking out the operation of another. if you have time post pics of your fruity sound device drivers and preferenor and same for biab.
