I suspect some stupid AV program might be interfering.

Either after installed this synth my machine is infected, or it´s just a ominous download of 3982kb what´s not certificated by google/microsoft?

Don´t understand your discussion here guys and girls, sounds like no one of you tried it!?
This synth is a really nice instrument for interesting sound designs with a well and totally different designed appregator, just a little bit buggy (one time R12 crashed) sometimes
filter and LFO stopped the soundoutput. At all i can say, never played such a different synth, with some La2a compression and Etch as crunch effect this synth can make amazing sounds when you let it play arp chords, also got some engine sounds out of it, wich sounding very natural to me.
Only thing that sucks, it´s really small, has no resizable panel!

So who ´knows more about the guy behind this synth?

I don't have Norton, but often enough with programs from small devs like this, I get an alert box from "Windows Defender" telling me they've prevented the program from running. Usually, it's simply because the program doesn't have some kind of badge of authenticity from Microsoft or whatever. Fortunately, it's easy enough to tell that thing to shut up and let the program run anyway.

You know, I was intrigued by the demo vids and picked this up, but I haven't been able to get it to run, either in Reason (Reason 12 just crashes) or Reaper (won't even let me select it to load). Is anyone else having a problem running this thing? Or is it just me for some reason?

Now MS-2 is at V1.2 (ohh now it´s 1.3 cool), in 1.2 the problems with no sound output, filter switch gui failure and the slider/knob senstivity mouse problems are solved.
The developer also added now a no installer pc version on it´s page, it works at my win10 machine under R12.5 without real bad habits, only when loading up a reason project, i have to reinitialize/reopen this plugin in my project that it loads up a saved patch, but at all really nice unique outstanding plugin. But i´ve heard about some people had problems with ableton and reaper to get it work

Tried the newest version now and after third time open up a saved project with ms-2 1.3 it works without crashing, but at this point this fucking waves shell dirt must be reinititiliazied by reason every time- MS-2 Gui seems more improved, soundoutput problems are fixed, and the project loading as well working now,nice! :thumbs_up:
Beta phase seems over after 4 weeks, crass shit full of Oberbabo this Fazari :o


At all to open R12.51 it needs two times of doubleclicking R symbols on my machine and waves shell dirt is scanned now every Reason startup, obvious that´s the new way to handle this rotten waveshell shit by reasonstudios, but okay better this way than startup hangs on like in the past :lol: :thumbup: :clap:

Doesn't seem to work with R12 latest. I tried both files. Too bad, the videos were intriguing.

Well, at least it's not just me. Does Reason crash when you try to use it?

Yeah, Reason just quits after about 15 seconds of M2 launch. It doesn't show in Cakewalk or Harrison 32C so far. I'll even donate if he gets it up and working.

And Cakewalk does the same after 7 seconds of M2 launch. I guess I won't have launch today!
