When it freezes, press Ctrl + c in the debugger window.
then

  thread apply all bt
  quit

to get a backtrace. Don't kill it with the task-manager. Thanks.

Sorry about that. I've uploaded a new log - ardour-debug2.log.

No need to be sorry, the window debug workflow is not really documented anywhere.

anyway, the backtrace looks good. Still it's a bit of a mystery. It looks like it hangs while the plugin tries to open a network connection (WSPStartup) and blocks/waits for the network.

Does the plugin actually instantiate (show up as entry in the processor box)?

I have no idea why, but this smells like some copy protection gone wrong. Maybe some incompatible .dll

No, the plugin doesn't instantiate. As soon as I select it, Ardour freezes.

Let me try a few things tonight and I'll report back.

Well, I had copied some plugins to a separate folder for testing with Ardour. I thought maybe this was causing the problem. I cleared Ardour's vst cache and directed it to my main vst folder. Still the same problem.

This plugin (same location) works fine with Reaper.

I did upload a third debug log just in case it contained any new information.

I've been able to insert and use Synthmaster in MB3. Same Synthmaster dll.
