When I open the file posted here:
2 pole LPF, saw osc, Relay unit ported from SynC Modular :-)
... then exit from the program, I got a "SynthMaker encountered a problem and needs to close ..." error message.
It might be related to the 'one sample delay' module, because the same error generated when:
Open file/new, then place a new (empty) module on the screen, doubleclick, place a 'delay by one sampe' module inside, and now exit.
I got the same error message.

Hi ik, thanks a lot for reporting it.
I think it is fixed now: [old link]

Wowww! That was quick! Jorge, when I open the file from the 'file menu', and then quit, there is no error any more, but if I try to open it with 'double click' from the desktop it is still there. .... or .... may be a bug unrelated to the 'one sample delay' ? ik.

I made a report about the opening of .osm files from double clicking them a month or two ago, and I hadn't been touching the Z^-1 module. SO my guess is it's unrelated!

Opening of .osm files from double clicking has been fixed for version L. When you reported it, it wasnt working at all. Now what was happening was that most files would open fine except ik's schematic that uses the 1 sample delay. I traced the bug to the line in the code that was causing the crash and that's how I knew it was the 1 sample delay causing the problem and not the opening from the .osm. My first reaction was like yours but after investigating further I found otherwise. Anyway, it should be fixed with the latest version 0.9.2n .

Thanks for clarifying! Cheers!

Jorge, It could be an additional bug in v0.9.2n which is unrelated to the DelayS module: When I open ANY file including the default "example" file, I got an error message. With the latest, you posted the 24db filter also ... ik.

Hi ik, thanks for reporting it, what does the message say? does it crash?

No it doesn't crash. A small window pops up when I doubleclick a file: "failed to open file", Then I click "ok" and it quits. I opened a "new", and I saved as an empty patch: same error. So it is completely unrelated to the structure. Again, this is only when doubleclick the file. I can open all from the file menu. ik.

I have said about this error already via PM message 🙂

Thanks ik. So there might be an install script related bug after all. I think there were two bugs, the DelayS bug and the install script. It's becoming more clear now. I'm glad the problem is only when you double click on the .osm file and not when you open it from the file menu, I was getting worried that it was a more serious bug. From what you say you seem to be ok opening the example schematic and other schematics posted in this forum as long as you do it from the file menu. The main thing for us is that you can keep using SM and learning with it.
