I renamed the file to WaveShell-VST3 9.2_圆4_BLAH.vst3 Wow! Success!Īll my projects loaded again… But it is not over yet.

This file is found here and this put me on the right path: I found a post related to a different issue that suggested renaming the WaveShell-VST3 9.2_圆4 file. I am using Cubase here but it could be any 64 Bit DAW host application.Cubase crashes when inserting ANY Waves plugin into a fresh project.Cubase crashes when loading a project that contains ANY Waves plugins.Usually Windows 8 but can be Windows 7 – Must be 64 Bit.The first step was realising that if I removed the Waves plugins from my system the problem went away. So I thought this would be worth sharing, as during my search I found many folks with similar trouble and no solution. The next morning I woke up and with a fresh head, found myself a cure within 30 minutes (based on the research I had done the day before). I re-installed, searched, cleaned, refreshed preferences, you name it, I tried it…ġ5 hours later I was still unable to load any of my projects without Cubase disappearing into the dark depths where all dead project go.


Even projects that I was working on the very day before. All my Cubase 7 (64 Bit) projects refused to load without crashing. I had a 15 hour struggle in the studio recently.
