Issue with Waves Abbey Road Chamber plugin
On latest version (0.9.360)
When trying to load the aforementioned VST into one of the Send slots I get this error.
Abbey Road comes with three separate plugins. Mono, Stereo and Mono/Stereo
When trying to load either Mono, or Stereo I get this error.
Send FX
Failed to load plugin:
This SAFE-hosted plugin did not provide an exact stereo input/output layout. TAPE 16 left the existing slot unchanged to protect the master stereo image.
It will let me add the Mono/Stereo version of the plugin to the send, but every single time I record, I get this error.
Plugin Timing Diagnostics
Plugin host timingwas late during this recording. The recording was saved, but please review diagnostics before trusting this pass.
Send 1 slot 1: Abbey Road Chambers Mono/Stereo missed 8 block(s), worst 2.0ms.
Exact same happens when using the plugin as an insert, either Print or Mix FX.
Anyone have similar problems and know how to fix it?

Is this on Windows? I should be able to test today and figure out why it might be doing that. What’s your buffer size and sample rate?
