Logic Pro 10.5 crashing plug-ins

After upgrading to Logic 10.5, some of the plugins used in my sessions crash Logic Pro immediately when I try to open them. So far it's crashed some of my Waves and iZotope (specifically CLA Mixdown and Vocal Doubler) plug-ins, and I'm sure I will discover more as I continue working. Most inconvenient as I use those plug-ins on the entire album I'm working on. As far as I can tell, the currently installed plug-ins are doing their jobs, but I can neither open and adjust them, nor install them on new tracks.

I've tried reinstalling the plug-ins (followed by system reboots), creating a new session and removing and replacing the plug-ins on individual tracks, but the Logic still crashes each and every time.

Any recommended steps to fixing this? Obviously I could use alternate plug-ins or attempt to roll-back to Logic 10.4.5, but I'd rather use the current version and get use out of the plug-ins I've invested in.

Thanks!

Having the same issue with Waves ButchVigVox plugin V.11 if you find anything out let me know. Project won't even open at all Logic just closes automatically when trying to open a project with this plugin on one of the tracks.

Thanks!

Perhaps you had the plugin GUI open when you saved the session? You could open your plugin manager (before opening that particular session) and deactivate it there. Haven’t tested this myself, but it could be worth a try.

I just had to bite the bullet and pay to update my waves plugins to v11. Once I did that, erased all remnants of waves from au, vst, preference and audio support folders and reinstalled clean, I was able to resolve.

best of luck. It was an extremely frustrating experience and I was not impressed by waves support team. Best of luck to you!

Just to confirm--I'm having the exact same issue with CLA MixDown.

UPDATE: I was using CLA Mixdown v10. I just activated the demo for v11 and it loads fine. Ugh... looks like I'm shelling out more money to Waves for a simple update. Nyarg!

heh... it's only a $12 update, but STILL

Hey guys! I'm still running Logic 10.4.8 and my CLA Vocals plugin crashes logic if I add it to any channel. Is it possible this issue was happening before 10.5?
