Stability of LC 8 DP2?

One other thing that may be worth trying is to remove any non-native plug-ins and try again. I and several others have had issues with plug-ins designed and built with previous versions of LC.

For my home rolled plug-ins I checked them carefully and updated the ones I needed in LC8 and they are working fine now.

For any third-party plug-ins, check to see if the developer has released an updated version for LC8.

Since doing this I’m finding LC8 to be much more stable and I’m mainly using the DP to take advantage of and learn new features.
