Good news, it works fine in 6.3 Mac (was in the middle of a project so didn't update before)

I see, I hope someone from Native Instruments is aware of the finding. Of course they can count on me to help them by giving a detail of the changes made between v1.2 and v1.3 to track their bug (my first suspicion lies in some graphical incompatibility, in v1.3 I added a very small custom image to replace the global switch "Env1" in the Amp with a trigger).

Thanks for your reply. I forgot to mention I'm on a Mac, perhaps that's the problem. It crashes in both standalone and au (in fact it completely takes down Logic the instant I load it). I've not seen that with other ensembles, so I guess you've found a bug with the Mac version.

Sorry, just realized I typed wrongly "should" instead "might".

Thanks for the feedback, John, but you should have some problem with your Reaktor installation. I spent several hours testing the ensemble in Reaktor 6.2.2 (Standalone, VST, 32-bit and 64-bit) and it never crashed. The only thing I found was a small incompatibility with respect to the width of the menus, which is already fixed in the new version.
