    Leif,
    Just noticed a problem with the plugin & encoder system in a multi-instance situation. All of the instances use the same config file for both, so I can’t have different plugins and encoders for both… I can fudge it for now, since I am using the same plugins, and just have to change the settings on them after restart.

    Thanks for a great product again!

    Just make copies of the plugins with different names.
    dsp_name1.dll
    dsp_name2.dll
    etc
    😉

    Jesse,
    The problem is BBP uses 1 config file to load the plugins for all of the instances, so if I have plugin1 & plugin2 in instance 1, when I go to Instance 2 I have plugin1 & plugin2, even though I want plugin3 & plugin4 for instance 2.

    All instances of BBP use the same EffectMuxer.ini and EncMuxer.ini INI files for the effect and encoder plugins. The 2nd instance of BBP needs to look to a file name such as EffectMuxer2.ini & EncMuxer2.ini, or they need to be listed for each instance in the INI file.

    Try a multi instance of BBP, load plugins in the 1st one. Open a 2nd instance of BBP and look at what plugins are there, it will be everything that is in BBP1, change the plugins in BBP2 and reopen BBP1, and the BB2 plugins will now be in BBP1.

    Hopefully that makes sense…

    btw, love your work on the presets.

    Create multiple copies of the whole Breakaway directory then.

    But yeah, i’ll PM this to Leif. That is indeed a problem that should be looked at. 🙂

    And Thanks 🙂

    Dr Shane,

    It’s a bug indeed. I found it a while ago, but I’ve been so over-the-top busy lately that I haven’t had a chance to fix it. It will be fixed in the next release, but it will probably be 6 weeks before that can happen – I’m on an extremely tight deadline on a different project.

    Best,
    ///Leif

    Leif,
    just wanted to make sure you were aware. I didn’t even think of Jesse’s suggestion of 2 different folders for BBP, I may try that. No hurry on the fix, I can work around for now.

    Thanks!
