They are also experiencing crashes when using the example Via patches, let us know if you need more information.

I can see you have commits related to loading crashes, but this seems to be occurring for the user in the latest update.

Thanks Paul, and sorry to the user for the trouble. I've been really slacking on fixing up some of the issues with the latest release, I'll try to get it together and ping you here when I have an update.

[pgatt]

That would be much appreciated.

Hey @pgatt, I was able to load our old preset files with the latest commit. Would it make sense to have the user try this build?
Starling_Via.zip
Starling_Via-2.0.0-win.zip

If they aren't able to try, let me know because I'm fairly confident this addresses the issues and I would like to get this updated version added to the plugin library.

Hi Will,

I've contacted the user and will let you know as soon as I hear back.
