I eliminated the mpd as the cause of this crash by loading another preset where all the pads were transmitting on common channel(1a), which never gave me problems before.
I initially was using the 64 bit version of this vst plugin. The problem is less common in the 32 bit version of the plugin but still occurs. The 64 bit version of the plugin crashes immediately upon receiving data now. Could the plugin file be corrupted?
Does it even make sense to use 64 bit plugins in 32 bit buzz? That's what I'm using, and I'm running windows 7 x64. Maybe you can answer that question too.

I've done some experimentation. Now I'm running the 32 bit version of geist. It behaves well if I hit one pad at a time. If I hit 4 pads simultaneously it crashes almost immediately, 3 pads slightly less frequent, and I was able to get it to crash hitting 2 pads after hitting them for a bit.
Sir Polac, I don't know if this is a related crash, as I'm doing some things differently, but tell me if you want me to try any arcane bug testing procedures, I'd be glad to help. I'm running the mpd through polac midi bus.
