After installing Ventura, Final Cut Pro is hanging on Audio Unit validation. Logic and Digital Performer both validated the AUs fine, so I know the AUs are not bad. It must be a FCP bug.
Is there a workaround until Apple fixes this bug?
I tried deleting the preferences. It didn't work.
iMac (2017 – 2020)
I moved all the AUs to the Trash (the only option to get them out of the Components folder) and put them back five at a time. Restarting FCP each time.
Three AUs seemed to be the ones causing the validation app in FCP to crash or hang. (Screenshot below.)
This doesn't really solve my problem, as I use Guitar Rig 6 frequently (I can live without the other two.) Having to delete it and reinstall it every time I want to use my DAWs or FCP is ridiculous. And it works fine in Logic and Digital Performer.
Frustrating.
Yes, Guitar Rig 6 is the current version. Guitar Rig 5 is older but as updated as possible.
Separate users is really a good suggestion. Many editors have one user for work applications and another for their personal or business needs. One for video and one for music makes perfect sense.
