The Oatmeal track comes in at around tick 758
Crashes without fail. Is it something wrong with the preset I'm using?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I think it has to do with the voices section.

Yes, in your Bmx, the preset is buggy, if we play a note-->bug, some Oatmeal's presets can crash buzz, it is the reason I don't use it too much, now I try to make safe banks, I like this synth but I never found any causes of these bugs, but I know the buggy presets.

Aw no! I thought Oatmeal was solid.

Yeah this is weird... I haven't ever had problems with Oatmeal crashing at all before... it was rock solid. I turned voices down to 1 and it works.

Right click on Oatmeal machine icon and goto preferences, then goto the Oatmeal tab.. the only options in the right hand section that you should have set are Sync Process/SetProgram/EditOpen, Mix Output buffers, and Multithreading (optional im sure, but ive had it enabled). Make sure to close/reopen buzz afterwards. I remember having an issue once and I think Polac told me to make sure the sync process/setprogram option was checked...iirc. Anyways, I use Oatmeal a ton and since making those changes a few years ago I've never had an issue. If you're using a skin, make sure all the files are there.. try changing back to the original for awhile and see if it happens again.

I wonder if this would fix my mysterious MiniMougeVA crashes as well...
Edit: nope, this did not fix the buggy Oatmeal song.
