Can't launch Rack 2 anymore

Hello,

Don’t know what’s wrong.

This is what I read at the end of the log file:

What’s strange is that I don’t have this Yamaha soundcard.

it is probably better for you to contact vcv support about this.

Are you trying to open a patch that was created by someone else? That would explain why you are getting errors on hardware you do not have.

If that’s the case, one way to fix it, it’s to look for the patch.json file after the crash, in the autosave folder, search for “deviceName”, that in your case should show the Yamaha sound card. If I am not mistaken, the procedure to follow is to delete that line, relaunch VCV, and see if that fixed the issue.

You could try the following to isolate the problem: If you have an external sound card, turn it “Off” and start Rack. If Rack starts, no sound card is selected in the audio module. Then close Rack and turn on the sound card again. After that Rack should start again and you can select the audio card in the audio module again. For me, the problem occurs with a single patch, and I have not been able to figure out the problem. But for me this is the workaround.Otherwise I would also recommend the vcv support.

I am neither trying to open a patcher from someone else nor having an active external soundcard.

Also, the autosave folder is empty.

I have finally found that the NetDuetto is a kind of inter-app driver I had installed ages ago but have never used. So I have uninstalled it completely but it hasn’t solved the issue. Here’s what I have now:
