any chance you could patch the 64bit exe to allocate aligned audio buffers? it would increase compatibility with 32bit machines (at least mixio)

I guess that would require some reverse engineering magic. Sounds very complicated but maybe pac knows this stuff.

Btw mixio kind of loads using polac adapter. Maybe that could be a workaround.

i'll recompile it for x64 some day... i'm currently replacing the .net gui with a native gui (opengl / directx / software) so it runs in other hosts too. but buzz64 should really align audio buffers to avx in order to be 100% compatible with 32bit

as for patching the exe: it might be as easy as switching one malloc call to an aligned malloc call... but maybe not

New BuzzEngine32 build:

• Stability improvements
• Better compatibility (aligned buffers everywhere aka mixio works )

How?

Congratulations on your reverse engineering magic.

great work!

Just to note, the delete-machine->crash issue that pac's patch fixed is back with the new BuzzEngine32.exe

Easier to compile directly from source code.

Can't reproduce on my Win11 system, but I might have found the issue. Please try.

No way!

Still crashing here.

For example, Infector -> HD Combo -> Cheapo Amp -> Master

If I delete any of the machines I get "Runtime error BuzzEngine32.exe"

Do you still get the issue with this version?

Seems solved - great success!
