    Yeah, people are facing some issues with it, but I still don't know if everybody is or there are some variable that makes it happens for some people only. In any case if you haven't deleted the convolution library yet and want to try for yourself if the plugin works for you, than all that takes is donwload the installer alone, no need to re-download the 9GB again.

    It seems many of these problems with FL Studio are related to VST3 versions.

    I was having "no sound" from Liquidsonics "Illusion" & "Lustrous Plates" & Kush Audio "Goldplate' & "UBK-1".

    If you open the plugin 'settings gear' icon and click on the 'wrapper settings' on the right, and move to the center 'processing' tab, you can set it to run bridged. If this makes it begin working, it seems to point to a VST3 issue.

    I did some tests. First i looked for the VST2 version in FL Studio browser and they DID NOT EXIST for those that gave trouble!
    All others were listed, but those VST FX that were not working properly (Liquidsonics and Kush Audio) were NOT LISTED in VST2 format.
    WOW...
    I decided to deselect "Combine VST & VST3 versions of a plugin".
    I rescanned and it seperated MOST plugins but some remained listed as 'VST & VST3' in the Plugin Manager.
    So, I renamed the "Program Files\Common Files\VST3" folder and scanned again.
    That listed only the VST2 versions of plugins. Then I corrected the VST3 folder name and scanned again.
    This time, all VST23 & VST3 are listed separately and all show in the browser.

    Now it seems that [Liquidsonics Lustrous Plates VST3] does not work, and [Kush Audio Goldplate VST3 & UBK-1 VST3] all do not work.
    All the VST2 versions seems to work fine so far....

    For me all of them show up immediatelly on VST2 versions, then I tried to uninstall Lustrous Plates and reinstall in VST3 version to see if it work without stop sound regularly, but it make it worse cause the VST3 didn't work at all (haven't tried to make it bridged tho). Don't know about Kush audio, haven't tried them.

    BTW, did you ever tried the bridged version of Lustrous Plates? If so, does it happens to stop sound too if the plugin GUI is closed?

    Mine version is 20.7.2 currently, but mine is from sister site, but I don't think this is the variable that is causing the issues. But if is working flawlessly for some people in the same DAW, then it makes even harder to find out what's causing the issue. I guess I'm going to still need to leave it open all the time while producing, luckyly it seems to not spend more cpu then it spend closed.

    uhmm.. idk, my dudes :dunno:

    have read through this thread and just decided to give it a go:

    absolutely nothing to report on legit S1 v.5.1 / win10 x64 here

    both vst3 lustrous plates and seventh heaven are working in all circumstances, gui open or closed. i really insisted and tried hard to reproduce the "bug", but nada. everything just works fine here. no sound loss at all.

    bear in mind: i have PACE/ilok installed for other shits here.



    OOOPS... ! sorry, disregard what i just said above. but finally the bug just happened here too. ! :deep_facepalm:

    OK, Lustrous Plates VST2 version does lose audio when GUI is closed (when FL Wrapper gets fully closed , or just switching from the GUI to other tabs of the FL Wrapper).
    It seems random if it will happen or not...but eventually I can make it happen and once it does it is consistent ...until i do some other thing like turn the processing off and then back on, and then i just got it working again by doing some other thing in FL Studio, but not with the reverb - lol

    VST3 version i have to run bridged ....UNLESS I hasve the VST2 version loaded and then REPLACE it with the VST3 ...
    It plays sound without bridging this way, but will also cut out sometimes when tabbing around the FL Wrapper but sometimes it comes back...

    Lustrous Plates REV does lose audio randomly when minimizing the plugin, Seventh Heaven - frequent audio spikes on channels, not related to modulation (sort of spitting the sounds of piano out from the "Heaven") :)

    Wow, I was going to install Ilok just to see if it would fix Lustrous Plates but now my short hope is gone again, lol
    Anyway, thanks for your tests and feedback. Maybe someone will come up with the answer for "what variable make this issue happens to some people.

    Yeah, It's really odd that this bug only happens when GUI is not being shown up, seems like this plugin likes to have all the attention, lol.
    Here, the problem is exactly the same thing, luckyly FL Studio allows to put plugin windows almost out of screen, so is possible to leave it open without spend space on the working area. But sometimes I kinda forget and close the plugin and just remember when my sounds got dry all of a sudden.

    BTW, thanks for your feedback about the VST3, would give a try on bridged version of VST3, but as you have stated the bug still there too I will not bother reinstalling it.

    After some testing with FL, Ableton, Studio One and Reaper. Reaper seems to not have any problem with Lustrous Plates or Seventh Heaven, both Vst 3 or vst 2. Fl and Ableton had problems with Lustrous plates audio output when closing GUI, no volume spikes for seventh Heaven on any setting mentioned in the comments. Studio One had the most problrems. I don't understand if this is DAW related or a Plugin Bug. but either ways Reaper didnt have any problem and i tried everything to crash it using these plugins.
    I\m running on a Windows 7 Ultimate x64 laptop.
    unfortunately, Studio one is my main daw with a lot of projects in progress and that means switching to reaper is not possible. Major bummer.

    There are numrous Hidden Checks/Timebombs left in the Liquidsonics plugs. Read the comments on the release itself on sister site.

    Sorry to say, but at this time all Liquidsonics plugs cracks are unuseable for production due to these leftover hidden checks which render the plugs completely unuseable :sad:

    R2R must take a close look at them again and release fixed versions.

    Im sorry but R2R mustn't do anything. You got to test the plugin and if you wanna have it fully functional and demand support for problems buy it. Just sayin' pointing out bugs and timebombs is one thing but demanding a warez group to fix anything for you for free is just ungrateful and childish.

    Maybe they will be fixin' it or not. They seem to take pride in releasing proper cracks so lets see if they wanna deal with this or move on.

    Maybe the OS can be a possible variable for what triggers the bug for some people. I'm on WIN 10 64 bits.
